Oh, Mr Darcy!

Just a short one this week:

Last Tuesday as part of our DS Sessions we were visited by Carl and Andy Pemberton (better known as Journey South). I stepped in to lend a hand since Tom 'I point cameras' Mansell has fled the country and those boys can certainly belt out some notes - I think the mikes are still quivering!




Elsewhere - i.e. without me - Simon Reynolds headed off to hobnob with that Mr Darcy Colin Firth chap. In my opinion Simon was nowhere near excited enough, although perhaps that was for the best because I would probably have made him dive into a lake.

As an aside, if he ever interviews Barbara Leigh-Hunt (Lady Catherine de Bourgh) Simon is under strict instructions to make her say "Are the shades of Pemberley to be thus polluted?!".

Anyway, the chat was sadly focused on the newest version of A Christmas Carol (the one which suffers from a distinct lack of muppets) but does involve a brief discussion of Mr Firth in a leotard...

'The one which suffers from a distinct lack of muppets'. Heehee. I like that.

Love the reference to P&P! I'm a TA at my daughter's school and I managed to use the line "A report has reached me of an alarming nature..." in the playground the other day! None of the children appreciated it but it made smile inside! (Nice! -Phil)
