      I Sky+'d it, so have that and the Royal Society Christmas Lectures to watch.

      I'm so going to miss Tennant as Dokka Who, he was ace. I've not watched the Christmas special yet - waiting for the second part to air in the New Year as I hate unresolved cliff hangers!

        Watched this. got to the point in Act 2 where...
        LORD POLONIUS
        I would fain prove so. But what might you think,
        When I had seen this hot love on the wing--
        As I perceived it, I must tell you that,
        Before my daughter told me--what might you,
        Or my dear majesty your queen here, think,
        If I had play'd the desk or table-book,
        Or given my heart a winking, mute and dumb,
        Or look'd upon this love with idle sight;
        What might you think? No, I went round to work,
        And my young mistress thus I did bespeak:
        'Lord Hamlet is a prince, out of thy star;
        This must not be:' and then I precepts gave her,
        That she should lock herself from his resort,
        Admit no messengers, receive no tokens.
        Which done, she took the fruits of my advice;
        And he, repulsed--a short tale to make--
        Fell into a sadness, then into a fast,
        Thence to a watch, thence into a weakness,
        Thence to a lightness, and, by this declension,
        Into the madness wherein now he raves,
        And all we mourn for.

        KING CLAUDIUS
        Do you think 'tis this?

        My four year old son (entering the room)
        No.


        Missed the rest through laughing.....

                  I can remember several.

                  Clues:

                  Cowboy leaning up against a tree breathing his last breath (Kids)

                  Driving a bulldozer into an oil tank under fire from Japanese

                  As a gunfighter dying of prostate cancer

                  As a bankrobber on the run (Clue - Baby)

                  + 6 more

                  Not going to give the names

                  PS. I have the complete John Wayne collection

                      Over-acted as usual
                      The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

                      But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”
