A SMALL MIRACLE

lillie eddie abbey clint babs dickie

Blimey, there was something on TV this week that was really rather good – and it was British.

“Married Single Other” [ ITV1, Mondays at 9pm - a six parter] is well written and well acted. There’s even a child actor in it that’s good. I’d given up on British kids acting well especially since the start of the Harry Potter films.

Sort of like “Cold Feet”, I reckon that this is definitely one to watch. I suspect it might go down a well trodden path but if it’s done well ….. what the heck. Of course, it might not, which would be even betterer.

Daddy Papersurfer rating – 4 false teeth and 3 unexpected hair growths.

[Eeeeeek, I wrote this a few days ago - you'd better catch up with the first episode on the interweave ASAP - the next episode is TONIGHT!]

    Ok, what’s the answer to Wizard problems?
    (no TV, not enough ‘allowance’ with crap mobile broadband to stream progs or even ‘iplay’ them) maybe you could post the script as a blog?

    Perhaps it’ll travel ……..

    And when it does I will have forgotten and I’ll have unexpected hair growths all over the place!

    daddyp replied:

    Those unexpected hair growths are very ……. unexpected …….

    I would have to agree; that show isn’t available to us here in Canada. Unfortunately, after the closing ceremonies of the Olympics last night, there seems to be a rather unexpected demand for replaying the coverage of those giant, floating beavers. Nothing else on any channel here but that…

    daddyp replied:

    I did see some of the opening ceremony – K D Lang was amazing ………

    fracas replied:

    She is always amazing… but you poor thing… you missed the giant floating beavers? I’m not sure if you’ll ever recover. We should probably host the Olympics again, to make sure everyone gets a chance to see our giant beavers.

    I’m now rather scared …….

    daddyp replied:

    Haven’t watched yesterday’s yet …… I hope it kept up the standard of the first one ….. [got leccy back?]

    penfold replied:

    Nope. But don’t worry – we’re okay…

    Apparently our satellite dish at Ferragudo is down ……. bloody thing
