Pretty good. Not great. Too much overracting, frankly. 

Didn't like Catherine Tate, but then I don't like her as an actress/comedienne anyway, she can't do character parts, she always plays the same person. I was waiting for her to say "Am I bovvered" to the Doctor.

However there were some interesting points made, and we saw the Doctor as he truly is, terrifying and deadly.

The best bit was the glimpse into the new series, there are Black Daleks in the Doctor's future! *squee*

They are also playing "The Sarah Jane Adventures" on New Years Day, and Torchwood has a double finale on New Year's Day.  Yipee.

AND I'd just like to show off about THIS. *points* What a nice Christmas Pressie.

Your comments sound so intriguing! I hope to get to see this soon... struggling with impatience. I like the idea of "the Doctor as he truly is, terrifying and deadly."

I certainly didn't want to spoil it for anyone! The download will be available at any minute, I'm sure!

Oh, yes, you did very well! I'm sure the prolonged antici...pation is good for me.

I know you've been listing where all Standish is available to order online, but I don't recall you mentioning Amazon in the USA. It turned up there last week!

I think it was the first post I made, it was certainly the first place it went on sale, although it's doing better in other countries, than there, sadly.

Thought for a minute you were wanting 'The Back Passage,' which I admit I considered buying when I was doing your shopping as it looked fun.

Congratulations on Standish!! A very good Christmas present indeed. Am still waiting for the Dr Who to be uploaded. :(

I guess a rampantly gay detective novel is just as novel as gay regency! Well done to the author for doing so well!

Hahaha, I was about to ask who gave you a copy of the Back Passage book when I read the other comments. Lol, yes, brilliant Chrissie pressie!! Christmas has come between me and Standish but not for long!

I only saw bits of the Dr. Who because I fell asleep half way through. I woke up to see the Catherine Tate person and spent most of the end of hte show wondering if it was really her and expecting the "am I bovvered?" phrase. THis detracted from the rest of it for me!

I'll watch it later when I've had less alcohol.

Bah - it was up to the number four position yesterday , 6k in books total, which is bloody amzing, considering it is about 212000 in american books. It's slipped down today.

Yes, a bit "samey" the DW episode - but still, some nice insights into the doctor.

Watched it. Of course.
Still curse you for making me a Dr Who addict.
:D

Standish is going pretty well, isn't it?

Best wishes. All the warmth and love I can send you. *hugs*
