Royal Variety Show 2008, NO longer for the new comers!

By Amazon, Gay, Rants, TV, Online Streaming & FilmsNo Comments

Hi All,

The Royal Variety Show is a British National Insititution. Much like tea or cucumber sandwiches.

Historically it has always been a place for new comers in the music, comedy and theatre fields. Any that appeared on The Royal Variety Show , later went on to be big.

So I have been saving the most recent one for watching on a chill night. Tonight was that night.

I am soo disappointed. No new talent. The performers included Take That, Leona Lewis, Jimmy Carr, Duffy, Peter Kay (as Geraldine McQueen), four west end musicals, too name a few. All big stars who’ve made it.

The exception to this was of course George Samson:

I wish it would go back to giving new comers in the fields a chance.

Ok, rant over. (I feel better now!)

P.S it was made better by John Barrowman performing ‘What about us’ and I particularly loved the gay couple centre stage! See for yourself:

Christmas Specials

By Amazon, Books & Authors, Friends & Family, Happiness & Joy, Life, Music & Radio, Technology, TV, Online Streaming & FilmsNo Comments

Hi All,

I have loved the Christmas Specials on TV this year. They Have included Dr. Who, Gavin & Stacy, Royal Family, Wallace & Gromit.

Some of my gifts (off my loving family, friends & David) have included:
* Money and Vouchers
* DVD’s (including Dream Girls, The Muppets Christmas Carol, The Feeling Live, Merlin, P.S I Love You)
* Books (Psychic Party Games, Dear Fatty)
* And soo much more!

I would like to thank you all for these.

I also treated myself to a new HD-ready, 26″, LCD TV. It was about time as I had had my 14″ TV/Video since being fourteen years old.

So, I’ve done well.

With Love,

Antony

Blast from the past & Eagle Eye

By Friends & Family, The Web, Thinking, TV, Online Streaming & FilmsNo Comments

I recently had a message on facebook from a old school mate, talk about a blast from the past! It was nice to hear off the person in question, if not a little odd.

This is the thing about facebook, it allows all mannors of people from your past to get in touch with you. Some you would like and some you may not. Now whilst I don’t mind this person getting in touch, I have had others add me as a friend that I’ve chose to ignore. Sometimes you past is your past for a reason.

In other news…David and I went watching Eagle Eye this weekend. It was an action film about two people who were being instructed to do things for an unknown purpose. It was all action. The story line was weak and easily worked out. A film that is worth watching once to say you’ve seen – but not worth buying on DVD.

Tomorrow I am going to see The Feeling, so excited.

Antony
