OH RADIO TIMES, YOU ARE TOO GOOD TO US

[sophieisgod]

Ohhh, I really am enjoying Being Human. First of all, RUSSELL TOVEY AND HIS EARS AND HIS FAAACE AND THE WAY HIS VOICE CRACKS, LIKE, ALL THE TIME. Second of all, Mitchell! I am kind of loving new!Mitchell a lot; he's weirdly feline but also strangely chirpy and I enjoy his Hollywood backstory and neighbour-befriending antics a lot, a lot. WHO KNEW VIN DIESEL HAD SO MANY TALENTS? And Annie is still wonderful, so rock on. Also, this week there was bonus!Dean Lennox Kelly! Which left me in a conundrum, because I love and adore DLK, but Tully was scary and disgusting and his hair was too short and he was creepy all over poor Annie :/ Come back to me soon, Kev/Shakespeare/Puck! I did enjoy George slashing him across the face, NGL. AND THEN HOMG THE END WITH BLACK!EYED MITCHELL AND "SHOWBIZ" AND IT WAS AWESOME. AWESOME.

Ohh, the Beeb, you are too kind to us sometimes, you really are.

First up, David and Freema being ADORABLE at last year's do, because that is apparently their default setting.


OH JAMES MAY. You are love.


NATALIE DORMER, HOW SO FIERCE?


A BRIEF INTERLUDE:
MAN IT SURE LOOKS FUN BEING JEMIMA ROOPER, WHO IS ADORABLE
Jemima with Olivia "Kim from Sugar Rush and also Lark Rise To Candleford, is that worth watching at all?" Hallinan. I WANT HER EARRINGS, I have a necklace that exact colour. Also, they are adorable. THELMAAAA! THERE SHOULD TOTALLY BE THELMA/KIM CROSSOVER FIC, Y/Y?


Jemima with The Tennant! A VELVET-CLAD TENNANT, OH MY.


Jemima with Colin Morgan! MORE ON THAT STORY LATER, but HOMG THOSE LITTLE CURLY BITS ON THE SIDE OF HIS HEAD ARE KILLING ME. KILLING ME DEAD.


Okay, My TV Boyfriend Philip Glenister, enough is enough. First the Demons accent and now this?! Has something traumatic happened that you need to talk about? Are you mad at me because I never properly got round to watching Ashes to Ashes? IN OTHER NEWS, HEYYY JOHN SIMM.


AHAHAHA, BABY CHRIS, WHAT HAVE THE 80S DONE TO YOUR HAAAAAIR? (I saw Marshall Lancaster in M&S in York once! It was joyous, I had to call templa_otmena straight away and whimper down the phone at her)


I have nothing but fuzzy feelings about this ~merging of experience~/fandom collision, which I am provisionally entitling ASHES ON MARS. YOU HEARD IT HERE FIRST, KIDS. And also admiration for Keeley's delightful fringe.


AND NOW. I CANNOT EVEN. BOYS, WHY MUST YOU DO THIS TO US? IT'S NOT FAIR. Okay. Firstly, SUITS. I ENJOY THE SUITS. Secondly, Bradley has his arms folded, because he is RIDICULOUS. Thirdly, Bradley's hair is all mussed-up and sweaty-looking, and it's giving me feelings. Fourthly, COLIN IS ALL FRESH-FACED AND APPEARS TO HAVE FRECKLES. FRECKLES ARE MY KRYPTONITE, OH MY DAYS. Fifthly, Colin's hair is all short at the front now and I LIKE IT. Sixthly, COLIN POPPED HIS COLLAR.


AND THEN THIS. JUST, WHAT. With the leaning and COLIN'S HIPS and BRADLEY'S THROAT and BRADLEY'S LOWER LIP and BRADLEY'S SHINY SHINY TIE and and COLIN'S SKINNY TIE and COLIN LOOKING ALL ADORABLY AT THE CAMERA and WHAT THE FUCK IS BRADLEY DOING WITH HIS FACE TODAY?


DVDs on Monday, guys.

AAAAAAND AS A SUPER-SPECIAL BONUS
OH FELICITY JONES, I LOVE YOU

How are you? ♥

THERE'S TOO MUCH AWESOME IN THIS POST, IT IS BLOWING MY MIIIIIND

Bradley takes his stupid face with him everywhere, apparently!

[sophieisgod.livejournal.com]

I WISH I HAD BEEEEEEEN THERE. EVERYONE LOOKS SLOSHED, I COULD HAVE HAD MY WAY WITH THEM AAAAALLL.

Ahem.

Lost In Austen! I miss my crack, man.

[darkangsty42.livejournal.com]

OMG WINWINWIN.

[sophieisgod.livejournal.com]

MY LICENSE FEE, I PAID IT, THEREFORE *GRABBY HANDS*

[thelackoflight.livejournal.com]

AW I LOVE THIS POST. Including your icon. Hahah. I'm liking BH more even though I'm one of those people who was initially weary of it without the original cast.

The Philip/Keely/John pic is amazing, ah.

AWWW BOOOYS. More of Bradley's stupid faces and eeee, suits! Love love love for all the people here.

[sophieisgod.livejournal.com]

Heee, glad you enjoyed it! I'm surprised by how much I'm enjoying new!BH; I think it helps that the tone seems completely different from the pilot, so it's not just the same thing with a different cast, maybe? AND I AM CHARMED BY NEW!MITCHELL, I MUST ADMIT.

There will never be enough of Bradley's stupid face. FACT.

[lovestories.livejournal.com]

YESSSSS. ALL THE THINGS YOU SAID! COLIN AND BRADLEY AND JOHN SIMM AND DAVID AND FREEMA AND, AND-!! (Also, FELICITY JONES - MY NEW FAVORITE PERSON??? QUITE POSSIBLY. ♥)

WORD on Being Human! Mitchell knocking over a chair in Casablanca = AMAZING DETAIL OF AMAZING.

[sophieisgod.livejournal.com]

OH FELICITY. SOME MORE AWESOME THINGS ABOUT FELICITY:
+ The Tempest (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1274300/), WITH WHISHYWASHY AS ARIEL, EXCUSE ME WHILE I DIE FROM THE PERFECTION OF IT ALL
+ She was at Oxford with HARRY LLOYD and toured Japan doing Shakespeare with him and the Drama Soc
+ THE VERY FACT OF HER EXISTENCE

[lonelyfajita.livejournal.com]

I AGREE WITH ALL OF THESE POINTS. Also, she was in Worst Witch which my ten year old self was blind to its awfulness and watched religously. Also, also, also! Northanger Abbey! AND CAPE WRATH WHICH ALSO HAD A TREADAWAY. Annnnd she was in That Face with the future Doctor 11, there is nothing not awesome about her.

I have a really horrible habbit of comment-hijacking, BUT I'M JUST HOPPING IN ON THE FJ LOVE.

[sophieisgod.livejournal.com]

AHAHA, CAPE WRATH. I was shipping her/Tom Hardy SO EFFING HARD even though he was clearly some sort of terrifying sex offender. And wasn't the Treadaway prone to dressing up in his sister's clothes?

HOP AWAY, SHE IS LIKE BOTTLED JOY!

[lonelyfajita.livejournal.com]

TOM HARDY CREEPED ME OUT SO MUCH IN THAT SHOW. For the longest time I thought he was the worst actor/the sleaziest man alive, until I saw him in other things and realized he was actually just that talented. Somehow this did not change the fact that I shipped the two of them passionately. Yes, Harry Treadaway played the cross-dressing, autistic twin who was nearly raped and loved older women. The Treadaways are never boring, haha.

SHE IS, I WANT TO HAVE A FJ MARATHON NOW. D:

[sophieisgod.livejournal.com]

Yeah, RL Tom Hardy scares me rather a lot (http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=117858946), AND YET I STILL WANT TO DO HIM. Even when he's Bill Sikes. It's somewhat worrying. Did you see RocknRolla?

OH TREADAWAYS. I think it was Luke who was in Clapham Junction, and he was supposed to be like, 13/14 and getting all Lolita on this dude who lived across the road from him or something? NEVER BORING.

[agguss.livejournal.com]

Hee, such a fab post. A great way to go to sleep.
(Hopefully, I'll end up dreaming about someone in here lol)

[sophieisgod.livejournal.com]

I aim to please, ducky ♥

[lalumena.livejournal.com]

OH MY OH MY OH MY I HAVE THE DOPIEST SUPPRESSED GRIN ON MY FACE EVER AND NOW I HAVE TO GO BACK TO DOING SENECA BUT I LOVE THIS POST AND YOUR SUPERLATIVE COMMENTARY SO SO MUCH

(also yes! you should watch Lark Rise to Candleford. it's the poor man's Cranford but still worth watching, fo sho) Olivia Hallinan looks so very different. Though I suppose that is only to be expected when she's not in makeup and corsets!

Jemima Roper is totally a lil bit sloshd, say I. And I love everybody's dorky photo faces, haha.

http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r48/sophiethestudent/Imaginary%20Boyfriends/RT%20Party%202009/ashesonmarsbaby.jpg
OH THIS PICTURE IS ALL THINGS LOVELY. IT JUST IS.

AUSTEN POWERRRRR. Man oh man, I wish I got the Radio Times! (LOL I ONLY JUST GOT THAT. I'M ~SMART~, YO.)

Oh Colin and Bradley. ♥ I think I may have to order these DVDs, stat. Well-spent scholarship money, say I. ;) I guarantee you that there are already fics explaining why he's exuding a ruddy-scruffy vibe. Several, possibly....

I want to crash this party! Hee.

[sophieisgod.livejournal.com]

I AM GLAD I COULD TEMPORARILY SAVE YOU FROM THE ROMANS ♥

(Heee, poor man's Cranford. I think I will have to give it a whack at some point; my mum quite likes it so it can't be avoided forever)

Dude, especially in the Tennant pic. Mind you, I'm not entirely sure I'd be able to restrain myself even to that limited extent, so. WELL PLAYED, JEMIMA ROOPER. JUST SLOSHED ENOUGH.

[lalumena.livejournal.com]

MUCH APPRECIATED, I ASSURE YOU.

It has Dawn French! Who is drunkenly loltastic at least. And a pretty boy, too. And the guy who plays Higgins from North & South! All good things.

The power of the velvet compelled her, say I.

[artemislives.livejournal.com]

I am sure that you are fully intent on killing me with these picspams of yours DDDDDD: THAT PIC WITH JEMIMA AND TENNANT IS KILLING MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE. Glenister's face is creeping me out a bit though :O BUT FELICITY JONES' AWESOMENESS IS MAKING UP FOR IT, LET ME PUT HER IN MY POCKET

[sophieisgod.livejournal.com]

*GASP* I WOULD NEVER

OH JEMIMA. I just want to give her a high 5 and pinch her cheeks and shit. And My TV Boyfriend Philip Glenister does not look proper in a single one of these, IDK what the devil is going on.

OH FELICITY. I want a one of her. FELICITY AND BEN IN THE TEMPEST IS MAKING ME GURGLE WITH ANTICIPATION.

[lonelyfajita.livejournal.com]

WHO KNEW VIN DIESEL HAD SO MANY TALENTS I WILL NEVER LOOK AT VIN DIESEL THE SAME AGAIN. I want to be able to whip out Vin Diesel facts at random to impress my friends and neighbours. Being Human is so good I want to cry every time I think about it. I CAN'T WRAP MY MIND AROUND THE FACT THAT IT EXISTS. Also, DLK made me really conflicted as well. He needed Kev's fluffy hair, he needed Kev's hair really, really badly. Perhaps when he pops up in Robin Hood he'll be able to rid me of the mental images of bucket hats, full tracksuits and him scratching his balls. :(

I kind of want to be Jemima Rooper. ALSO, DT ENSEMBLE IS AMAZING, until now I never thought I would love a velvet jacket on anyone but I was so very wrong. Jemima and Colin are really adorable, his little curls! His crinkly nose! Philip Glenister looks a bit like he's got rabies, but John Simm looks good! (I developed a strong dislike for him during The Devil's Whore, but this picture reminds me why I loved him before). Poor Marshall Lancaster, just imagine having to parade about every day life with that hair. :( JOHN/KEELEY MAKES ME REALLY WANT HIM ON A2A. And, Merlin booooooooooooooys. There is nothing I do not love about their pictures together! BRADLEY'S FACE. Its such a 'We had this talk about touching me in public, didn't we?' face. I am so excited for the DVDs, I so badly want for something to re-spark my love for the show!

FEELIIICIIIIIIITTTTYYYYYYYY. <3

[sophieisgod.livejournal.com]

He was born Mark Sinclair Vincent (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vin_Diesel)! I AM SO HAPPY THAT IT IS THIS GOOD. Kev!hair would have made everything less traumatic. Kev!hair and maybe like a thick gold chain. ALSO I DID NOT KNOW THAT VINCE-FROM-QUEER-AS-FOLK WAS HIS BROTHER, WHAT IS THIS MADNESS. Do we know who he's playing on RH?

It does look like fun, doesn't it? I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHERE THE TENNANT FINDS THESE THINGS, but I'm pretty sure my dad has that cord ensemble in the opener. TENNANT YOU ARE AN OLD MAN AND I LOVE YOU.

[lonelyfajita.livejournal.com]

I DID NOT KNOW THAT. How interesting! I want to write a novel called 'fact you did not know about Vin Diesel' now. YES, KEV!HAIR WAS SO DESPERATELY NEEDED. I feel like I have been emotionally raped watching him in this show, they've taken something I've loved so much and ruined it for me. I DID NOT KNOW THAT EITHER! THIS IS A DAY OF NEW CELEBRITY TRIVIA. I don't think it has been said, yet. I really hope he's a goodie, I don't think I could handle him being evil again.

EXACTLY, I CAN'T REALLY IMAGINE HIM SHOPPING FOR THEM HIMSELF, EITHER. I bet he just steals things from the TARDIS' wardrobe.

[sophieisgod.livejournal.com]

A novel! How ambitious! Clearly somebody has been taking creativity lessons from Vin Diesel.

[randombastary.livejournal.com]

I love the way that Georgie-porgy's voice cracks all the time ... and how the writers seem to keep finding ways of getting Russell nekkid. It amuses me. Tully = oh, so very creepy, and I'm glad he won't be back. I didn't like the influence he had over Georgie, or the way that he hurt/scared Annie. Bad, wolfie!! No!! ::swats him on the nose::

[sophieisgod.livejournal.com]

There is a LOT of naked. I mean, I'm not complaining, but it's all in, like, cold forests!

[randombastary.livejournal.com]

You're right. It must be murder on little Russell.

[anothersadsong.livejournal.com]

ahaha, so much pretty in this post, i don't even know what to do!

[sophieisgod.livejournal.com]

FLAIL! *does same* :)

[sallyna-smile.livejournal.com]

Bradley&Colin are the WIN!

[moogle62.livejournal.com]

AJSBDKJSDFBDKBF THIS POST


Okay, that first picture of Tennant is, like illegally attractive. Look at him! Looooooook at himmmm. Nnng.

Also: Bradley has the most amazing ability to pull stupid faces (hurrah), John Simm seems to have had a personality transplant whereby he is CHEERFUL at public events wtf, and Philip Glenister seems to think that turning into a chipmunk is the way to go. You know I love you, Philip, because I am watching Demons ffs (sadly, it is drawing me in a little bit more every time I watch it, even though my heart is going NO, REALLY, THIS IS A VERY BAD PROGRAMME. I am powerless to resist a pretty blind vampire and Glenister in leather gloves and nice suits, despite bland young people and dire plots, shhh, what) but, really, what are those eyebrows?

ALSO: Jemima Rooper is indeed an awesome (as was Sugar Rush, but that is totes not the point here) BUT did you know she played George in a Famous Five tv adaptation series when she was younger? I found out that it was her, like, last week, and it blew my mind because I loved the Famous Five and then it was like, lol, she has indeed become a famous herself. HOW AWESOME WAS LOST IN AUSTEN? VERY.

At the risk of making this comment ridiculously long (fail), I just need to add this: BEING HUMANNNNNN HOMG YYYYYY. ♥

[sophieisgod.livejournal.com]

His hands look HUGE. Like, indecently so. Phnar.

IF BRADLEY EVER STOPPED MAKING WEIRD FACES, I THINK MY WORLD WOULD BE A LITTLE COLDER. Hee, I think Simm's been on a slipperly slope since Tennant got him tipsy on Jools Holland and everything got FANTASTIC with the dancing. OH DEMONS. I still haven't seen past ep2, but I want to, just to confirm that yes, the showrunners are legit insane. THE ACCENT, I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHERE TO START.

Yes I did! And she was in that remake of The Railway Children! STOP REMIXING MY CHILDHOOD, JEMIMA ROOPER. Except, y'know, carry on, because you're adorable.

I AM LOVING IT A RIDICULOUS AMOUNT. OHHH BOYS. OHHH KISSING. OHH EVERYONE.

[cometotheedge.livejournal.com]

Too. Much. Awesome. Brain. Cannot. Cope.

1) OMG JEMMA ROOPER YOU LUCKY COW. CHAMPAGNE IN ONE HAND, DAVID TENNANT IN THE OTHER. I CAN'T EVEN. SERIOUSLY.

2) Yes, you should totally check out Lark Rise, even if it is half way through series 2. It's the nearest you can imagine to a British version of The Waltons. Only, y'know, awesomer. Someone on Digital Spy described it as like getting a big hug every Sunday evening. Plus, there's a very cute Irish boy in it at the moment. Not at Colin's level obviously, but still yummy.

3) The Ashes-on-Mars pic is KILLING ME DED. I thought I'd learned to cope but I haven't. I want my Sammy back! I want Gene to have his Sammy back! I want Alex to be all 'good god you two are the least likely Imaginary Gay Best Mates EVER.'

4) I've spent pretty much the last 24 hours trying to think of any response to the Colin/Bradley pics more coherent than:

i. gnuh. fwub. meep.

and

ii. See???? TALLER.

but it's just not coming. I think they broke me.

[sophieisgod.livejournal.com]

Awww, I do like Sunday evening hugs from the Beeb. AND OOH IRISH *GRABBY HANDS*

Meeep, Sam! My housemate borrowed my DVDs because she'd never seen LoM, and I watched a couple with her, and I'd actually forgotten it was that good. OH SYNCHRONISED POLICING OF LOVE!

TALLER IS CANON (... again. But now it is canon that can easily be copy-pasted into comments with big letters and shit. TALLER!)

[glenien.livejournal.com]

THE FRECKLES!!! I THOUGHT NOBODY ELSE IS GOING TO MENTION IT!!!

He is finally allowed to go out to the sun I guess with Bradley being extremely careless with his sun cream.

I love Jemima too! I really wish they do a second season of Lost in Austen. And Colin smiles so beautifully oh god.

[sophieisgod.livejournal.com]

I THINK THE FRECKLES ARE MY FAVOURITE THING!!! Oh Colin. Oh freckles. Oh deliberately!negligent!Bradley.

(THERE ARE NOT ENOUGH DIS/CONNECTED ICONS, TRULY THERE ARE NOT!)

[glenien.livejournal.com]

HMMMMMM NOW I'M KINDA INSPIRED TO MAKE SOME.

I am also inspired to make a wallpaper from merlin video diaries too, gah!

[bbbewitched.livejournal.com]

Oh my god it's like all my favourite people in one big picspam! I'm going to watch Lost in Austen dvd now :D Being Human is good, but I think I might have to miss a few episodes and then do a marathon later, it seems like it would work better that way.

[sophieisgod.livejournal.com]

THANK YOU TELEVISION, FOR GIVING THEM TO US. Ohhh, Lost in Austen! Yeah, on reflection that's still my favourite Wickham.

[edge-of-night.livejournal.com]

Awwwwwwwwww! I love all of these!! Also, in that first picture with Philip Glenister and John Simm, Philip looks absolutely nuts. It's wonderful. IMA RAPE YA! XD

Dang David and Freema!!! Loverly! James May!!

My sis started me on Merlin last night, so I imagine I'll get into the awww aren't they precious on those two, too. lol

[sophieisgod.livejournal.com]

He looks like a mad ventriloquist's dummy, it is rather worrying. BUT WHATEVER, GENE AND SAM REUNITED!!!

YAY MORE PEOPLE WATCHING MERLIN! It is completely my happy place show; it makes me want to bound around on a spacehopper all day long.

[edge-of-night.livejournal.com]

LOLOLOLOLOLOL. So true.

YAY! I can't wait to watch more! ^_^

[headspin-x.livejournal.com]

COLIN! AND! BRADLEY! I CANNOT EVEN. OH BOYS ♥

Also, the Ashes On Mars picture is my favourite thing ever. I love Keely all squeeful with John Simm. I THINK SHE HAS A CRUSH. But heh, she has Matthewwww (Oh Matthew McFadyen, marry me plz) which is like, the next best thing.

BBC LOVES US.

[sophieisgod.livejournal.com]

OH BOYS INDEED ♥ STOP APPEARING IN PUBLIC WITH FRECKLES AND SEX HAIR, IT'S VERY DISTRACTING.

Heee, they all look so tipsy, BUT THAT DOESN'T MAKE THE LOVE ANY LESS REAL.

[alkalinegabi.livejournal.com]

*dies* *gets up* *looks at page and pictures of Colin Morgan* *dies again* *repeat*
I Love Him WAAAYYY too much.lol.

[http://users.livejournal.com/_faeriequeen/]

THOSE WERE MY EXACT REACTIONS TO THE BRADLEY/COLIN PICS TOO!
HE POPPED HIS COLLAR...I MEAN, SRSLY! ♥♥♥

[templa-otmena.livejournal.com]

This is getting mem-ed hard right now, my dear :D

Love you xXx

"I'm the only one BIG HAND SLAM doin' his jorrrrb around heeeere!

[from-the-corner.livejournal.com]

I'll just... sit here and drool for a while, ok? =)

[curlybeach.livejournal.com]

OH, TO BE JEMIMA ROOPER ♥
Colin Morgan is cuuuuute.

Did you see this?: According to the Radio Times, David Tennant and Stephen Fry were seen "admiring the 'velvety feel' of each other's jackets" at the Radio Times Covers Party.

IF I HAD BEEN PRESENT AT THAT MOMENT, MY LIFE WOULD SRSLY HAVE IMPLODED FROM THE AWESOME.
