for those already in the UK: potential tix tomorrow

[kronette.livejournal.com]

DougRDNaylor  on Twitter sayeth thus:

If we have some no-shows tomorrow I'll try and tweet to say first come first served.

And a pair of tickets were offered up as someone couldn't go tomorrow, but those are long gone. Hope springs eternal I'll still be able to go!

I was just about to mention this. Sadly I can't afford to go twice in a fortnight (it would involve an overnight stay), especially without a guaranteed ticket. Maybe, just maybe, I might try to go again in January. Although part of me thinks that's just being greedy. ;)

Craig still had flu on Wednesday; I hope he's better tomorrow.

One thing I wanted to know, sort of OT, is are they filming the episodes in order, or do you know?

[janamelie.livejournal.com]

I honestly don't know, and neither did the G&T crowd. But judging by previous series where they changed the running order for reasons from quality of storyline to the first Gulf War, I'd imagine not.

The episode I saw would make a good opener, though. :)

They recorded episode 3 last night for some reason. Hmm....

[kronette.livejournal.com]

Poor guy! I know Bobby and Danny have barely mentioned Craig in their tweets, so maybe it's a Lister-light episode?

*sigh* Just checked G&T boards; Capps gave away another ticket for tomorrow.

I would have told you as soon as he posted, but obviously there's no way you could get to the UK in time. Plus someone else had already claimed it.

No, no, that's okay. I'm halfway planning my trip to the UK for Jan 4-16 (that's two Fridays covered). Either it's positive thinking or insanity, or possibly both. I'll try to win tickets assuming TORDFC still offers them the week before filming, and I'm still on the "official" waiting list.

Seriously, I'm going next week to talk to the AAA travel group and see if they can find better airline rates and what would be involved in getting B&B/hotel, train tickets to Liverpool and Cardiff, etc, etc. I've been spending my lunch hour (and a few extra) looking up things I didn't get to do on my first and only trip to England in 1999. If I get a ticket, I intend to go all out and fully enjoy myself. I'll hit Doctor Who, Torchwood, Red Dwarf and the Beatles all in one trip!!

If I don't get a ticket, then I'll console myself with new episodes of Sherlock. :)

If you'd like me to ask Cappsy and the G&T lot if there's any spares going for those two January dates, I'd be more than happy to. Drop me an email - caz_kiss[at]yahoo[dot]co[dot]uk. Shame you're not going to be here for the 27th recording as that's the one I'm going to ^__^

[kronette.livejournal.com]

Email has been sent! I cannot express how grateful I am that you're even asking :)

[missflibble.livejournal.com]

Hmm... Email hasn't come through?

I'll post on the G&T site and ask for you

[kronette.livejournal.com]

I sent you a PM and I saw your post on G&T; thanks :)

Heh. I'll never have enough money to travel outside of the country before I'm middle-aged (damn you college! Ruining my life prematurely!) but anyway, SHERLOCK!

...now if only I can trick the BBC to think I'm English. And living across the pond.

Heh. I'll never have enough money to travel outside of the country before I'm middle-aged (damn you college! Ruining my life prematurely!) but anyway, SHERLOCK!

I went into debt for 10 years to do my traveling (only twice outside the US, though). I've just this past year paid off the credit card, and fear I'll be running it up again. Bad, bad me!

However, SHERLOCK! Such a clever, brilliant show. No wonder I like it; I've been spoilt by the writing on Red Dwarf :-) I think I can hold off until May. I have plenty of stuff still in my Netflix queue, not to mention the stuff I got for Christmas that I have to watch. January flies by, and February is short, it's in March that things slow down for me. I may break then.

...now if only I can trick the BBC to think I'm English. And living across the pond. *sigh* I know. I'm an Englishwoman trapped in an American's body :-)

[dauphkantus.livejournal.com]

Ouch. Just. Ouch. Debt is a horrid horrid thing.

But yes! Ever so witty and clearly caters to their fangirls. At least, Mark Gatiss seems to. 8D

I'm an Englishwoman trapped in an American's body :-) You and me both! I don't even have any ancestry in the UK. Apparently they're my Godparent nation. Who tries to spoil me rotten with good TV comedies and lovely writers and hawtprettyboi actors and sensible movies.

Clearly I'm thoroughly spoiled rotten then.

[kronette.livejournal.com]

I don't even have any ancestry in the UK.

I'm actually researching all my family, and it looks like my main family may have come over from England in the mid-1600s, possibly 1660. It depends on who you believe, though :) The rest are German, Swiss, and unknown. It's close enough, right?

Mark Gatiss is doing a countdown to Sherlock on Twitter. I'm resisting the trailers for now, because I want to hold onto the suspense.

*sighs happily* After wrestling with the computer for 4 days, it's finally burning DVDs properly. Smegging smegger. Now to determine which RD vid to start with; the one I just thought of, or the one that's plagued me since 1997. *ponders with finger against her lips*

[dauphkantus.livejournal.com]

Mine are all German (mom's side), French, and Lithuanian (dad's side).
I'm less of a mongrel than most, I guess... ;D

*fansqueal of EXCITED FRUSTRATION*
I haven't managed to trick the BBC into thinking I'm in Britain. I'm thinking of giving up for now and hoping some lovely sod will record and youtube post it. So I can spaz properly.

Lol. I should work on those amvs I have written out in my notebook. The ones I claimed dibs on ages ago.
of course, if I have time to work on them, then I should be working on my class projects...
