OH NO! Not Humph!

[erastes]

I've only been addicted to "Sorry I haven't a clue" for about 6 years, and OMG I wish I'd found it 20 years ago.  *cries*  Will they even continue it without him?  Oh Humph! You will be very sadly missed.

Ok - you know your mind is polluted when...I've been playing "Canis Canem Edit" in the last couple of days (which I royally suck at, but I'm enjoying anyway) and I had an hilariously slashy jolt whilst playing just now. One of the scenes is called "Hallowe'en" and my character (Jimmy) dresses up like a skeleton. He turns around from his wardrobe and find his dorm friend Gary, lounging on his bed, dressed as a Nazi soldier and looking delightfully camp.  I was looking for the SHAG button on my controller. You know what? There isn't one.

I've just noticed that Jonathan Ross isn't a real film critic - despite fronting Film 08 for years - he didn't know that Russell Brand was in St Trinians despite him having done an in depth review of it on the TV show.  Innocent of me to consider that Ross would actually WATCH all these films that he was reviewing, but... GAH. I wonder if Barry Norman was a cheat too?

And for writers of Historical fiction might be interested in this submission call from Rachelle Gardner, literary agent.

What? No SHAG button? The world is cruel. ;)

Ah, Jonathon Ross. I'm new to the world of UK TV personalities, but even *I* know Russell Brand was in ST Trinians!

I know! Sadly the playable character looks like a bald ugly pig but Gary did look rather yummy.

Jimmy and Gary



Sadly I can't find one of Gary in Nazi clothing.

Mmm. Well, the Final Fantasy boys they most definitely are not. :)

But hey, anyone in costume is good for me!

I used to do that with the Sims...hehe...the Woohoo button! *snigger*

[erastes.livejournal.com]

Yes, but there IS a shag button in the Sims!!

I'm sorry, I haven't a clue.

I did find it 20 years ago, and I've been addicted ever since. I'll really miss Humph. I'm surwe they'll continue ISIHAC. It's consistently the funniest thing on TV or radio. I could see someone like Paul Merton doing it. But they can't let 'One Song to the Tune of Another' or 'Sound Charades' die!

I hope they carry it on. Jack Dee would be perfect, too.

I'm taking it, from the guidelines and "what I am looking for" on that call page that m/m is out?

It's a li'l confusing.

[erastes.livejournal.com]

Yes, I'd say definitely m/m is out - she's a Christian - but I guess I'm being presumptive, it's worth asking?

Humphrey and JD Cadinot- a sad week. I'm sure the show will carry on, but it won't be the same. I've been listening for eons.

Love the game story...I've been obsessing all week over Jimmy Page in his Stormtrooper outfit that gives rise to wicked hot slashy thoughts about him and Robert Plant and a bit of post-show roleplay.

[erastes.livejournal.com]

I could kick myself that it took me so long to come to radio four.

Young Mr Page in a Stormtrooper outfit? Hubblie hubb!!

Indeed....

I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue, and it's dotty Auntie I'm Sorry I'll Read that Again, have been the cause of some of my most embarrassing helpless, 'tea down nose', laughter.

It won't be the same without Humph but then we said it wouldn't be the same without Willy Rushton. I'm sure the show will survive.

Have one of their limericks:

Now that Prince Charles is of age,
He is terribly fond of sage.
The sage he admires most,
is Laurens Vanderpost
Who he keeps in a very small cage.

*sigh* priceless

Have you (and Erastes) discovered the repeats of both these programmes that can be found on bbc7 radio?

[erastes.livejournal.com]

Yes - I do listen to Radio 7 when I remember, I'll have to make more of an effort, but with dial up, it can be a bit patchy.

[essayel.livejournal.com]

NO!!! Oh thank you!!!!

[mylodon.livejournal.com]

The bbc7 website, with its listen again facility, is one of the great joys of my life. All these old radio programmes come around on a regular basis. Round The Horne is my fave.

[erastes.livejournal.com]

That's very true about Rushton - thank you - that gives me heart!

Brilliant limerick!

[dubaiyan.livejournal.com]

Gasp! Bad Wossy. How did you find him out??

[erastes.livejournal.com]

He was interviewing Brand on his show last night, and said "This is your first film, Russell" and Russell put him right - saying "You, as a film pundit should know this" and then I remembered JR doing a long detailed film review on Film 2008 (or 7) when St Trinians came out.

Mornin' missy.

I do so hate when people like that pass; it's a little chunk of childhood gone.

And who'd have ever thought YOU would get slashy about a situation in which two young men were lounging about a dorm room in costumes?

SMOOCH.

[erastes.livejournal.com]

Well, one doesn't expect slash in games terribly often - apparently Japanese games have more explicit relationships but not over here. This was just in my grubby mind, obviously, but I had a good chuckle at myself about it

[tharain.livejournal.com]

YAY for a grubby mind. =-)
