Desperate Romantics - SO excited

[littlepollyflinders]

Can hardly contain my excitement...!!
Aidan Turner (the gorgeous vampire from Being Human - sorry language failure there - 'gorgeous' doesn't begin to cover it ) in series about the Pre-Raphaelites.
All long coats and brooding artiness.
Can hardly breathe - must take deep breath.

OK OK so I am still dipping in to this programme even though I have slated it here. Right, Aiden Turner; I have seen him in something else and he IS Irish and with that accent I warmed to him slightly. The pompousness of his speechifying has irritated me all along in this programme and now I think it's because I can tell he's not using his real voice - it feels fake because it IS fake.

I realise that my chatter has no impact on those of you fixated with his chest - I will distract you all no longer...

Except to ask, why are all the copies of the paintings in this programme sooooo shite?!! They are so awful - you would think that there would be several copyists out there who could have recreated the paintings but they all look so amateurish.

I'll go now, as you were ladies.

Well that's it finished .

glasjam - I do agree with you on his voice, and on the copies of the paintings. But I still enjoyed it.

Yes Glasjam - I agree totally about the accent - same thing did for the other Aiden as Carcetti but thats another story...

Ahh but I think you can get away with having a trace of Irish in an American accent (re. the very lovely Aiden Gillen) even though the name Carcetti doesn't sound as if it originated in deepest Kerry!

A trace yes - a weird flip flopping midatlantic drawl no

Ah well, bye bye Aiden Roll on Being Human Series 2!!!

Thank goodness the Tudors is back!

And 'Being Human' series one is being repeated atm. I had to tear myself away from it last night, as I really needed to get to bed.

Just watched last episode. So glad it ended with a giggle.
Second series....?
