So, I was sitting down this evening, feeling bored, when, without any input from anyone at all, I thought "Hmmm, do you intend to do a blog on the new BBC idents, Islander? I just know you like that kinda thing...". Of course Islander tends to think in the third person, yes he does...

So, without further ado, I give you Space and Forest:





Wooooooooo! Well, woo anyway.

Something that is also new are these silly "let's mix the closing credits with an advert and a now/next/later list, just to be ultra-irritating, and then to be uber-irritating let's do so across all our channels" boards. Hmph. Don't like them .

I would comment on the last episode of Doctor Who in this blog, but there isn't room. Seriously, there isn't. Well, perhaps I'll say this: (Steamy, don't click!)


***SPOILER***

Something else I'll blog about is my friendly Cyber Replicant Human Prototype 6000. See, those of you *coughmattcough* who might find this programme interesting, but are in the UK, will probably be thinking "hang on, how does he know about this? I haven't seen it air here". Well, it hasn't, but lovely Umbrella Entertainment of Aussie made a DVD (well, four. Well, four and a lizard) containing all 26 episodes. So, what I am doing is this: I watch an episode, then create it's guide and fill it up*. Kinda like giving birth to a baby each episode you watch, and then fattening that baby up.

Anyway, to get back to the point, one quote I took down really struck me - it made me draw a huge parallel between Rhyss from Cybergirl and the Demon Headmaster from, well, guess. It was this quote:

:

Rhyss: At last, Cybergirl, just the two of us. Hospitals are such difficult places to get out of, aren't they. You've been having second thought's about my offer? Cybergirl: No way. Rhyss: You should, you know. You and I are bound to join forces sooner or later. Cybergirl: You and me? Rhyss: ...because, we are supirior beings. Equal to one another, but way above everyone else. With your cyber powers and my own genius, we could rule the world. Cybergirl: But, I don't want to rule the world. Rhyss: Change it, then. What is it now? Chaotic, untidy, disorganised. But you, you are such precision, you work and think like a perfectly tuned machine. Wouldn't you like to see an entire civilisation just as perfect? Cybergirl: If I was perfect I wouldn't be here. I'm being hunted down because I was a mistake! But, I like the way I am, and I want to live in River City, just the way it is.

Anyone who's watched The Demon Headmaster should be able to pick out the exact line I'm talking about.

Couple more things before I wrap this blog up: firstly, a small prod at a little adolescent boy who lives, I believe, in Poole (though my memory is failing me...). Thou who thinks that my spelling is poor. Thou who picks me up on it every other sentance. Yes, you know who you are - I have my monkeys on their way to sort you out .

Second, my second installment of "This is My Life", namely a picture. Here you go:


***SPOILER***

There you go. The lighting box (lampy booth / crows nest / place of 1001 names) of the Students' Union.

One of them's me, and I'll kill anyone who gets it wrong. Bear in mind that a) I'm introverted (so would I wear a hat?), b) I don't drink, and c), I was controlling that night, when some jumped up crew member came and tried to take over. Grr. It's nice to know security .

As for the black, well, we have to wear black clothes. Oh, you mean the face? Well, black face paint, clearly

Well, I think that about wraps it up. Ciao!

Islander out/

* - you may notice that this blog is rather - punfull. It is at this asterixed (shush, Matt...) point that I thought "Whoah, I'm on fire!", and started typing at twice the pace. Not quite sure what's up with me tonight...

Note to Steamy: You might want to steer clear of the comments until you watch Utopia
