Apparently James Marsters has said that John Barrowman is a better snogger than SMG, so unless they've been having a little extra-curricular fun, I'd say there will be some action there....

A-ha! I thought I got a bit of a flutter watching the trailer (and it wasn't Mr Gay that was doing it...)

"Oh my loins" is my new catchphrase btw (at home not on here)

In one of JMs interviews, not long after it was announced he'd be playing Captain John, he hinted that there would be quite a steamy scene between him and Jack.......

I'm just glad that he's doing his 'Spike' voice, rather than his real voice (not that there's anything wrong with it, but there's just.......something.......about the Spike one)

Sadly I'll be at work when TW is on, so I'll be forced to watch it alone in the morning

has he improved his accent. It slipped all over the place in Buffy!

god yes the Spike voice is melty
They really knew what they were doing with Buffy, didn't they?
(Is that why Firefly didn't get a second series? Not enough 'oh my loins' in it?)

Apparently Spike's accent was based on Tony Head's 'real' voice - Giles' accent was just a fake as Spike's.

God I love Tony Head's voice
Just the voice though
THough I did like the Giles character - something about that reticent Englishness...(which is infuriating in RL)

I thought his accent was good in Buffy ! He looks better as Spike than in that photo...

I once read a fan thing about Tony Head that said his handsomeness was improving, as if looking upon him were akin to reading a novel by Faulkner

do agree he looked better as Spike. Seemed taller as well somehow. Did they stand him on a box?

Not enough 'oh my loins' in Firefly??!

Captain Mal (shiney!)

Jayne

Simon

How many do you need?

Report
MrsBadger · 05/01/2008 15:18

not on a box, just next to Sarah Michelle Geller, who is teeny

he always looked short next to David Boreanasz (sp) and Barrowman is taller than him

"The transmission date for Episode 1: Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang has ... been confirmed as Wednesday 16 January, 9pm, BBC Two"
Not sure if that's the JM episode from the tiltle it sounds as if it might be....
Don't know if any US dates have been confirmed yet, Frau.
