trace_of_scarlet: Red ink-pen (Doctor Numero 10)
Happy Christmas, everyone!

Doctor Who was on the good crack. OMG WILFRED, THOUGH! LOVE THAT MAN. Cannot wait for the Dream Team next episode! Sometimes having access to spoilers is the best thing ever. *bounces*


And An Meme, as stolen from half my Cardiff flist:
- Pick up to 15 OTPs.
- Describe them in less than 15 words.
- Have your flist guess the OTP! (Try to guess without looking at anyone else's answers! I'll post the right answers in one week or once they've all been guessed right, whichever comes first, with a note saying who got them right.)
- A Note: Some of these are OT3s. Hey, threesomes solve everything, amiright?

1. Socially-awkward genius, highly individual geek and smart-ass tough guy flirt as they track psychos.
2. The Heart and the Brain go retro. Who doesn’t love to break the law?
3. Tea and smut – is there any better combination?
4. The everyman and the man out of time. Accents make for better sex.
5. Even in the Sixties Seventies you can still remember being young and in love.
6. Two ordinary humans in the midst of superpowers manage to be something special after all.
7. Superspeed and an iconic founding member set the sky alight.
8. A Union Jack, leather jacket, cons and dancing? Fantastic!
9. The gentleman’s gentleman and his gentleman.
10. She meant the crackers, but they’re the real thing.
11. A lion in disguise and a less-than-eagle-like dreamer. Odd earrings are the least of it.
12. Their school has two mummies. Brains, balls, and hockey sticks.
13. When she thought there was something funny about him, she meant the moustache.
14. One’s got a way with words, one knows he’s right. Opposites are very gay indeed.
15. Two doctors and two time-travellers make for one very long-lasting threesome.

...Dude, screw that emo shit. I MET BURN GORMAN AND ROWAN ATKINSON IN THE SPACE OF AN HOUR LAST NIGHT.

(Well, still not entirely happy, but a lot better now. It's amazing what fangirl squee can do for your mood.)

Lauren and I decided to have a shot at hanging round outside Oliver! to see him when we came out, since we weren't that far away and [livejournal.com profile] galacticconman had told us when it finished. We had to wait a while (I was actually quite surprised by the size of the crowd that wound up outside the stage door, probably because I am an idiot), but eventually Jodie SomethingOrOther (who plays Nancy) came out, and while she was busy being mobbed (she was, incidentally, very nice - Lauren got her autograph, and she seemed a good giggle) out sneaks Burn, hood up. I nearly missed him, and I was looking out for him, but luckily the only other Torchwood fans in the crowd nabbed him before he passed us. He seemed happy enough to be recognised, and chatted to Lauren and I for a few minutes (he says hi, Em!), but clearly didn't want to stop long. However, he posed for a photo with Lauren and gave her a cute autograph, and then when I asked for a photo too and had difficulty getting to him for it (stupid crowds) he said something along the lines of 'oh, come here' and pulled me through the crowd and really close against him. It definitely counted as a snug, he was holding me tight while Lauren took the photo. And I was happy. :D

Photos! Burn and Lauren, then Burn and me. We hearts the Gorman, we does. )

Burn Gorman = resounding sweetie. And, as Lauren said, much better looking in real life. Okay, there's still something of a resemblance to an underfed wide-mouthed tree frog there, but the camera does him even less favours than it does me, and that's saying something.

We had to wait ages for Rowan to turn up: Lauren and I were half-frozen and the couple I'd been exchanging Blackadder quotes with had given up by the time he appeared. Even we, hardened Blackadder fangirls that we are, were well into the last ten minutes we were prepared to wait when he popped out like a ninjalike, tiny black weevil. I had no idea the guy was so short! He was only about my height, and clearly very quiet. He wasn't saying very much to anyone, just occasional 'thank you for coming's with his head down, and not personalising autographs. I was a little sad about this (totally not because I wanted him to say my name with that awesome, hilariously funny voice he's got going, whut). But after he signed for Lauren and I, I went back a second time to say 'thank you ever so much, you must be frozen' (he was only wearing a jumper, and I felt frostbitten in mittens, hoodie, boots and thick coat), and he finally looked up and gave me a rather nice smile as he said 'you're welcome', and goodbye.

Not much at all, but a lot more than anyone else in that crowd got, so I was happy. <3 Blackadder.

Rowan signing. He really <i>is</i> slightly weevil-like. )

Round-up of the rest of the London trip to follow.

In other news, the BBC has cast yet another young white guy as the new Doctor. Hear the sound of my resounding lack of surprise.

I am disappointed, though. The odds on Paterson Joseph were so good that I really hoped we might have someone a bit different in the role for once.

I totally wanted Meera Syal, though, damnit. *sulks*

I have an Update Of Awesome to make (albeit one that I may wind up dead for. :D?), but that needs to wait until tomorrow.

So here, have a meme!

An Exceptions List is a list of five (or sometimes six) people who you would sleep with even if you were in another relationship at the time. Because I'm a geek, I have a Fictional Exceptions List in addition to the Real People one.

What's yours?

I'll start!

Real: Johnny Depp, David Tennant, Cate Blanchett, Ewan McGregor, James McAvoy. And Anthony Head as a sixth.

Fictional : Jack Harkness, Martha Jones, Ianto Jones, Sam Linnfer, Kurt Wagner/Nightcrawler. With Hawkeye Pierce from M*A*S*H as a sixth.

Post your answers in the comments, and post the meme to your own LJ. <3?

Whoo!

You scored as The Amazing Spider-Man. After being bitten by a radioactive spider, Peter Parker was transformed from a nerdy high school student into New York's greatest hero. Peter enjoys the thrill of being a super hero, but he struggles with the burdens of leading a double life. He hopes someday to win the heart of his true love Mary Jane, the woman he's loved since before he even liked girls. Right now, he just wants to make it through college and pay his bills.

I am totally Spidey. Let's not forget that he's been known to tell villains off for bad grammar. And he snarks. :D
