Top Gear: David Tennant was pwnd by Billie Piper. This amuses me so much. However, there is still no proof that David Tennant and Richard Hammond are seperate people though as there was no point where they were on screen together. Oh and Mr Tennant looked like a lollipop in his helmet. Bless. Did like the golden brown (texture like sun) velvet jacket though. Love the fact that the Stig is so rock hard that he barely flinched as Jeremy Clarkson unsteered past him. Very surprised that they didn't take the piss out of May more for his Heat Award (maybe on the uncut news then). Mrs Stig swimming in the pool made me do an actual LOL.
James May on girls toys: I owned:
[x] Fuzzy Felt (only mine pwnd his sisters: I had horror ff, fantasty ff and all sorts. I also had the hospital one that appeared on screen)
[x] Girl's World (Fact: Trainee hairdressers actually use them in one of our local colleges)
[x] Major Morgan - only mine was one of the infinitely cooler blue ones and not a rubbishy modern red one
[x] Spirograph - I was actually okay at it and didn't make too many mistakes. I wouldn't mind one of those giant Spirograph artworks.
[x] Sylvanian Families - we didn't have the dolls house but my sister did have a gypsy caravan.
[x] My sister had one of those treehouse things that James May really, really hated.
Richard Hammond meets Evel Kinevel:
What a very strange man (Evel, not Hammond). Not surprising considering he's been dropped on his head so many times (and then had a motorbike land on it) Although the running away (and it was) on a golfcart was very, very strange. Why bother arranging a meeting with him if you weren't going to go through with the interview?
Hmm, it's been a very Top Geary night tonight.
Channel four 100 best Christmassy moments: (or whatever it was called)
Nice to see a high rating for Father Ted, because it was made of awesome.

My favourite was quite possibly the Windmill that I got for Christmas when I was about seven. I still sometimes wonder what happened to them all. I had a Spirograph too, but I was always crap at it. WOEZ.

Date: Monday, December 24th, 2007 10:34 am (UTC)As for James' May's toy program - are you sure you're not me? I had some hardcore fuzzy felt, actually said to the bro that we had the infinitely cooler and more rock blue Major Morgan , could actually do spirograph and had Sylvanian families.I did have the plastic treehouse thing but I did have its spiritual sister the Big Yellow Teapot. And yes the dog was as big as the people too. We also had the Fisher Price farmhouse that mooed when you opened the doors.
I thought Evel Kinevel was interesting but indeed odd. He seemed to know the end was coming and maybe he didn't want to remember some of the stuff he did or maybe it was just a reminder of how frail he'd become. It was great and rather touching though to see Richard's reaction to meeting his boyhood hero.
