erastesSo last night John Barrowman was on Jonathan Ross' chat show and he was just adorable. Upstaged sadly, by some supermodel with a stupid Z list show on some channel no-one can get but JB was still adorable. Any man who can laugh uproariously the way he does, and still look good has my vote.
Just been to the library. I've just about exhausted the place, I've already said how tiny it is, and it is - think of a drive in (just a drive in mind you, no sit down restaurant attached) and you'll get the idea of the size. Not even worth listing the books I picked up because they are all unknown to me, and about all I could find that wasn't a Dan Brown or a Nora Roberts clone. Will have to start making the effort and go to the Millenium Library in Norwich, perhaps after work once a fortnight or something.
Lucius has buried himself in the middle of the ironing. Lili is trying to ascertain why the ironing is moving and has gone in to find out. Soon I'll have lost two cats to the laundry basket. Yep. She's gone. Severus is out in the sunshine, lets hope he doesn't see Lili sleeping with Lucius!!
I'm watching Mel Gibson's Hamlet. Stellar cast, but Gibson fails to convince. I don't like old Australian Hamlets. Sorry. So have turned over to the wonderful Mrs Miniver. Never understood the casting of Walter Pigeon in that film, though. Never. However, am pondering doing a gay historical on Hamlet. Has there been one?
ETA: Thanks to![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
liriaen for letting me know about this film - Asta Nielsen as Hamlet - now THIS androgynous Hamlet is one I can definitely write. I must get this film!!!!
More ETA: Interesting plot of the film, to get past the censors I suppose, Hamlet is actually a woman in this film. Raised as a boy and only Gertrude and Hamlet know that she's a woman....
