Snow snow snow snow snow. It’s everywhere and just keeps on falling! We’ve had over three weeks of it now and it’s getting to the point where enough is enough. Still, it is pretty. There’s …
The industry in which I work and play.
Anything about me, my family and my kitteh(s).
Here you’ll find posts about the TV shows I follow and the films which have me hooked.
My musings on my creative works.
This is where all the posts concerning my Night Elf Druid Serisa (EU-Daggerspine) belong, as well as anything else WoW-related.
Of all the sci fi series canceled in 2009, T:SCC was the one I was really hoping would survive, especially with the killer twist in the final episode. It was ripe for renewal but sadly has gone to the great TV show graveyard in the skies. It’s always sad when a TV series was cancelled but at least this one goes out with a bang.

I’m quite a fan of CG animated movies and while Pixar remain the masters of the genre, they’re not the only ones creating awesome movies like Bolt and the cliché-ridden Monsters Versus Humans. Cloudy with …
So I’m full of the lurgy and made a point of going to bed early last night. Some time around 2:30am I heard a banging coming from downstairs. Ceri has been known to headbutt the …
Thanks to a year-long hiatus mid-season, season five of the surgical drama Nip/Tuck has been a while coming. McNamara/Troy has moved to trendy LA but their appointment book is empty and they are unknowns in …
It seems odd to start with a conclusion to a review but, simply put, The Writer’s Tale, is both the book for Doctor Who fans who want to know the hows and why but it’s …
I’m a huge fan of Being Human and the BBC kindly sent a previews disc of episode one my way and the disc arrived earlier this week! The series continues the story of George, Mitchell …

It only feels like yesterday that VIZ announced its plans to release an a la carte menu of the finest chapters from the Japanese foodie manga Oishinbo. Each volume has …
The BBC has ever so helpfully overhauled its Doctor Who website, just in time for the regeneration of the Doctor. They’ve also included a really stylish looking sneak peak of series five – which is …
Excuse the profanity but WHAT THE FRAK?????
Seriously??!!! OH MY VARIOUS GODS!!!!
Usual amount of spoilers after the jump. I think I need to put my head between my knees for a minute.
District 9 is a fascinating film, not just because of the way it was made but also because it takes a realistic approach. It also tries to break away from that tried, tested and tired …
Being Human is one of those rare shows – along with Doctor Who – that makes me want to give the BBC vast sums each year for the license fee. I originally caught the pilot …
Ah Christmas Day again. This means only once thing: Doctor Who (those of you who said the Queen’s Speech, get iPlayer up NOW and be ashamed of yourselves, dear me). Unlike previous years though, this …
This movie feels like it’s been a long time coming. For me, Terminator 2 was the pinnacle of sci fi movies and the hints given about the world post-Judgement Day were tantalizingly brief. Then we …
The Tudors is one of those unique series which has managed to captivate Americans. Now on its third and penultimate series, the reign of Henry VIII is becoming even more tumultuous. Last series, he wedded, …
Yes, Christmas is apparently here and I’m looking forward to one thing: Doctor Who. Part one of The End of Time airs on Christmas Day, with part two to follow on New Year’s Day. It’s …
OMVGs*, that was scary! Actually, no wait, it was more like mild peril and seriously disturbing, more so in the last five minutes than the entire hour-long episode in which we see a totally different …
Ah end of the world as we know it. It seems like there’s a glut of apocalypse porn at the moment, from Knowing (which really was depressing but also full of that aliens are going …
So National Novel Writing Month (aka NaNoWriMo) starts tomorrow. Anyone else scared yet? While I’ve participated twice (this will be my third year) I’ve never actually completed my 50,000 words. Also, both my previous attempts …
I’m not sure which, to be honest. This kind of conversation unfortunately applies to journalists just as much as photographers and it’s rather sad. The worst part is the recession will be used an excuse …
Simon passed this on to me and it’s so bloody funny I just had to blog about it. If you look closely, you can actually see him in the first couple of frames (he’s on …
Yes Norwich finally has an Apple Store of its very own! After months of waiting and impatiently watching, the store in Chapelfield was finally unveiled to over a thousand waiting Apple fans yesterday morning. And …
So, I finally got my iMac and I confess, I have fallen in love. Granted it’s not perfect and there is much I need to learn. The good news is I have plenty of time …
Since I bought my first iPod way back in 2006, I’ve had something of an on-again-off-again affair with Apple. I started with a fifth generation iPod, one of the video ones. Then I got an …
In this day and age, everyone and their pet goldfish seems to have a website of some kind. Mine has been down for a couple of a months while my lovely web designer worked hard …
As any of my regular readers know, I have a bit of a passion for photography. I recently bought myself a DSLR and signed up for a photography course that my local council is running …
I have a hard life. No seriously. I’m forced to get up at the crack of dawn to ensure my hooman is awake and eager to feed us. I actually had to jump on her …
Here be spoilers, you have been warned!
I was quite excited by the prospect of a third series of Torchwood. Then it was announced that rather than a full series, there would just be a short …
Push feels interesting; it takes the conspiritorial stance, creating a world of psychics who can do everything from make people do what they want (hence the title), move objects, see the future and heal wounds. …
When I was a kid, I loved Greek mythology. Heck, I still do and it’s not just Greek but Egyptian, Roman … you name it. When I was in sixth form I found a book …
Outside is so much fun just not for Mama Isis. Mama Lesley left me on my own again this morning and she came back really late. It turns out while she was at Auntie’s getting …
When I first saw the trailer for Seven Pounds in the cinema, I was intrigued. It hinted at a film which seemed to have mysterious overtones and could have easily slipped into one of many …
