By the way I love this description of his voice : "brushed-suede vowels".

I love that description too.

I did try to read the book, but found it just a bit too much. I was hoping the BBC would find a way to merge the writing style with the medium of television, but now I'm nervous about seeing it. I guess it's good to read these things though and not go in with too high expectations and then be disappointed. I'm still looking forward to it, but now I have a more realistic expectation.

But cannot decide between Chatty Man and The Graham Norton Show.

I totally voted for Graham Norton, I love him!

Birling Day is the annual day where MJN flies the wealthy Mr. Birling to the Six Nations rugby final. They all look forward to it, because even though Mr. Birling is pompous he gives huge tips to people he likes. Meanwhile, Douglas and Carolyn usually wage a war of whits over the bottle of expensive whiskey that Mr. Birling insists he have on his flight.

Toothache. Vamoosh!

Yeah, that trick has never actually worked for me. Unless I say like a split second before the dentist begins whatever painful treatment he feels is required to make said pain go away. 

I saw Magic Mike, which wasn't so very magical.

Words, which could have used a few more to explain what the hell was actually going on.

Best Exotic Marigold Hotel, which has awesome English actors in it, but really cemented my idea that India is not a good vacation destination idea for me. I've reached Garbo status and "want to be a little more alone" when vacationing.

The Private Life Of Sherlock Holmes, which I really enjoyed and was impressed by how much Moftiss used in our favorite Sherlock.

The Cabin In The Woods, which was an interesting premise for a horror movie, but I felt it lacked something in the end.

Wow, what I wouldn't give for a seat on that couch. 

Yes, you should push the guy with the finger off (he's just a prop anyway) and take his place.

I totally agree, I'd do away with the prop guy and make me a nice home between Ben and Matt. 

Geez I totally missed the date and time at the beginning of this article. How blind am I. Lots of radio goodies this week!! 

Wow, another radio play to look forward to, how awesome!  That is, if I can get my ears on it, when it airs. 

I love the jacket and cardigan too! He looks so English. And, how cool that Matt Smith popped up in a pic.  I also loved his outfit from earlier, he looks so good out and about the last couple of days.
