So I once again hopped back to England (Nottingham this time) with my fellow fairy_bliss and ephyse this weekend to see Simon Amstell's stand-up show, Do Nothing.

Let's just say that it was completely worth the effort because it was probably one of the funniest stand-up shows I've seen and it totally lived up to my humongous expectations.

We didn't quite know what to expect since we've only seen him on Buzzcocks and not much leaked about his tour. I suspected snark and edginess and we got both of course, and I knew that he talked about his love life but I never would have imagined that the whole stand-up would be this personal. From a guy usually so private, he was quite upfront about his insecurities and his awkwardness. It made the whole thing feel more special in a way, like overhearing something we weren't supposed to.

In short, it was FOR THE WIN.
I'm a bit sad that with this little trip ended my last planned trip to the UK. I hate not knowing when I'll be able to go back.

I have tons of tv shows to review and I especially need to share my glee about White Collar's latest episode (and the show in general because it rocks my universe) but I'll keep this for the next post.

I just have to finish with some pimpage :

The Waters of Mars new trailer ! I CANNOT WAIT. It looks so dark and gloomy and I wasn't that excited about it before (compared to the regen specials) but the bits and pieces I read about it really got me excited now. D-11 !

The talented talitha78 made one of the first White Collar fanvid of the fandom and I've watched it so many times already ! (seriously people if you're not watching this show then watch the vid and then get on with it ! Why are you not watching ? WATCH. IT.)

In other news I'm gutted that David Tennant landed an american pilot (selfish and irational, I know) and I wish english people would stop fleeing the coutry (Russell Brand I shake my fist at you).

I'm however fucking overjoyed that he will be hosting this year's Buzzcocks Xmas special and that Catherine Tate and Bernard Cribbins will be guesting OMG ! My brain will probably explode if David and Noel get snarky with each other and I may never recover.

I'm also reminded that christmas now means : David Tennant in Buzzcocks, David Tennant in QI, David Tennant in Hamlet and David Tennant in Doctor Who.
DOES HE WANT TO KILL US ?

Also, I can never be tired of Richard in my post's moodtheme. Look at him ! He is so speshul and precious.
