Here is a box, a magical box

OMG they have done a trailer for Life on Mars in the style of Camberwick Green and it is possibly the most awesome thing ever transmitted on television!

Isn't it, though? I love it. It's on youtube here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lzVCsKr4uXo&eurl=

[falls over laughing]
Thank you for the link. :-)

That seems to cut off awfully suddenly - or is it just me?

[glitterboy1.livejournal.com]

I know! That struck me, too, but I haven't seen it on TV to compare. But I was pointed at it earlier by someone else on my f'list, who had also seen it on TV, and she hadn't commented on it. Dunno.

The one I saw on telly cut off quite suddenly there and went into a trailer for Hotel Babylon.

Ah, thanks! We shall have to take what we're given, and like it :)

I have informed the BoT about the 13th, and what his torrenting priorities will be from that date ;)

The show is apparently coming here this year, and it's about time :)

*throws Robot of Death hand at you for using that tag line* But yes, it's something that should have been screened here before this. Loooong before this...

OMGYAY!!!!

[altariel.livejournal.com]

That's the noise I made!

Oh! Sorry! I'd got so used to everyone having LoM/Camberwick icons in lifein1973 that I'd forgotten you might not know about it!

[altariel.livejournal.com]

No worries! It was enormous fun to suddenly find myself watching it!

[snowgrouse.livejournal.com]

Yes, it is. I flail-squeed with happiness when I first saw it. Pure brilliance.

[altariel.livejournal.com]

So much joy!

OMG.... I hope you can bear with the swearing as my response to seeing it was "*peel of laughter* That is just fan fucking tastic!"

[altariel.livejournal.com]

I think I may have yelled something similar myself!

[sugoll.livejournal.com]

*Eeeeee!*

[altariel.livejournal.com]

A thing of beauty.

*cries with joy*

Best TV ever.

*dabs eyes*

The downloads on the website are also fantastic. Best downloads ever.

Also, I saw the cover of the Radio Times today and they were, like, totally kissing. Have they stopped bothering with the pesky 'sub' bit of 'subtext'?

[altariel.livejournal.com]

I'm not sure they ever bothered with the pesky 'sub':

Gene Hunt: I think you've forgotten who you're talking to.

Sam Tyler: An overweight, over-the-hill, nicotine-stained, borderline-alcoholic homophobe with a superiority complex and an unhealthy obsession with male bonding.

Gene Hunt: You make that sound like a bad thing.
