corrupted by retro pop culture

Can someone please explain to me WHY BBC America is using the Tara King Avengers end title music instead of using the Emma Peel one for the Emma Peel episodes? It's nice that they finally brought back the credits in a font size that is actually readable, but I really don't like how they still cut off the color episodes' closing scenes. They're terribly SEDDI-filled and really quite cute in a British 60's mod-style way.

And may I say for the record, I reallly adore "Escape in Time," even if it is terribly campy and doesn't make too much sense. And Peter Bowles puzzles me greatly. Is he actually capable of not raising his eyebrows and talking with that funny lisp in ANY 60's TV show? I'm just curious.

I have a terrible amount of work to do, but at least the math SAT IIC will be over on Saturday. But then I have my Telluride application which is due Monday afternoon, and I must finish that or else I'm sunk.

But I will finally get those various CD's I've wanted to listen to for some time tomorrow. Or rather, I'll finally bother to order them. I can be amazingly lazy about things I actually want to do.

Who? Do I know her?
That is so unfair, he is an awesome actor.

Someday I shall tell him that.

I'm starting to get really confused now, but I think it's because I've been staring at too much math within a short time span.

He has an absolutely gorgeous voice; I remember reading somewhere that his voice is so unique because he's actually unable to move his jaw properly. And that is an awesome pic of him in your icon :)

And Tania, I don't believe that you've met phoenixbird27 before. She's a grad student from New Zealand and an awesome friend :).

I didn't know about his jaw problem. But yes, the huskyness is very attractive! And I am soooo jealous of your friend who met him!
Does he live in CA? I know he's english but many actors tend to migrate to the epicentre these days.

I have absolutely no idea, to be honest. Last time I heard he was still living in England; I don't really picture him as the type to move over to Hollywood for work. I'd like to think that he's far classier than that :P
