Just remembered another thing I wanted to say in my last post. Seriously funny moment I caught on Graham Norton on Friday night. So the guests are Gerard Depardieu, Damien Lewis and Olly Murs, and Depardieu was, I think, advertising his new cook book. So they were talking about diets, and Depardieu was basically pooh-poohing the whole idea, and Olly Murs started telling this story about how the paparazzi had snapped a photo of him in his swimming trunks and he had a beer belly. Not liking how he looked, he went on a low carb diet. So Murs is detailing what he eats for breakfast, lunch and dinner, with Depardieu giving a constant refrain of 'sad, so terribly sad'. I think I love him.

Thomas Castaignede was on the rugby today. Oh Thomas, how they could have done with you. I'm sorry but he remains the first rugby union player who isn't Jonah Lomu who I ever even liked, and damn could he ever play.

I can't help but feel that no matter how crackpot Lievremont was, he could still get his team to beat England.

Shakespeare Meme - Day 4 - Favourite Heroine

The reason I couldn't say Ganymede for the hero one was because I'm using Rosalind for this. I love her, rather a lot. It's that she has such get up and go. Things at court get beyond endurance and then she gets banished, she got up and went. Her best friend decides to go with her, fine, they'll come up with a cover story.

(Um, I've only just realised that in the version of this I know best Helen Mirren was Rosalind, certain things, they may be explained.)

Do you love Depardieu, Murs or both? I'm looking forward to this one - I watch it on Saturdays but we get them a week later so I think that'll be on either this week or next here.

Also Helen Mirren, yes. Just to anything really.

Depardieu. Although I don't mind Olly Murs. He makes cheerful and inoffensive music.
