The old spot the ball competition got a mention. Remember that? Last week was another great episode. I did laugh when Gene Hunt was eating that sherbet in the car. I haven't had one of those in years.

Texan bars and spangles...what happened to them? And treats were replaced by M & M's. I might write to my MP about this!

They still do salt n shake crisps but they just aren't the same. I steadfastly refuse to use the name snickers. It'll always be a marathon to me.

Just started watching Grey's Anatomy.
It's been on re-runs. I missed it when it first came out, but have found myself rather enjoying it.
I think because I usually despise hospital dramas most of the time.

I think Sam has to try and get Gene Hunt arrested (alter-ego sub concscious I guess) and then he comes back to present day.

BUT...

the twist is, when he wakes up in 2006, at the very end, he bumps into an old Gene Hunt.

Um it is a drama, every series there is some entity out to get House (change the way he works, make him conform to the norm) or theres a story arc with his ex coming back in to his life or how his leg was screwed up. DRAMA

I can't really explain the end of Life On Mars.

I'm enjoying the last ever season of The Sopranos.

I'm on season 3 at the moment. Has to be one of the best TV series I've ever seen.

Been watching Life On Mars, pretty good. At least it's different.
And Heroes. Very enjoyable, not seen a dull episode yet. Great stuff.
