Watching TV is one of things that I enjoy doing to relax. Of an evening my OH and I would just sit and enjoy whatever is on. I know that some people would say 'get a life' but I would have to tell you that we quite enjoy our little life. We can spend hours just laughing in each others company because of what we are watching, or what it has made us talk about. We laugh an awful lot and very loudly. We know this because the Nieihbours have mentioned it. I remember once after Youghurtgate Val (Woman next door) asked if we had heard the row through the walls. When we said yes, she apologised and said they wish they could laugh like we do- which she could hear through the walls!
Anyway I decided to use the new DVD recorder last night, because I wanted to see the Skeleton Key which was on Sky Movies at the same time as Afterlife- and I was not going to miss that! So we recorded onto the HDD on the DVD, which has about 73hours of recording space. Could this mean the end of mucking around with discs?
But back to Afterlife, and what a fantastic episode. The Rat Man was quite freaky! The guy who played the prisoner did it very well. That whole scene in the prison with him and Alison, was so intense! The build up to the Rat Man following her home was good, however I did think the whole 'He wanted to thank me' was a cop out. There was an opportunity to leave a good unfinished storyline there.
What else was good last night? The X-factor. My God Simon can be a smug idiot. When he found out he was getting the under 25's and Louis had got the groups, well I could easily have slapped his face. Although would that have been below the belt? (That was supposed to be an amusing reference to his high waistbands)
And this morning, I managed at last to watch the Scissor sisters live performance on BBC interactive. Cooooooool!
