Elizabeth (Betsy). Twenty-two, almost twenty-three, but perpetually seventeen. Whirls back & forth between vulgarity & delicacies like a dervish proper & has been known to disappear for months on end. Worshipper of Carroll, devotee of Lovecraft & BPAL hoarder absolute. Destined for the madhouse.

It's impossible for me to decide which of the three I love the most.Awww! :D I think one of the only non sci-fi British things I've seen in a while would be the show Black Books, which is ABSOLUTELY hysterical & deals with one of my favourite things - BOOKS! & the very mad life of the owner of said bookshop, his assistant & their friend. Ah, good show, that is. (the other one would be Secret Diary of A Call Girl - quite good & so is the book!)
Wow - aside from Doctor Who & a few assorted shows I have on DVD, I just realised, I almost never actually watch tellyvision anymore - to be honest, TV here in the States nowadays just SUCKS. Everything I watch is either from the UK, filmed there, or a film, which may or may not be connected to the former two. I'm happy to watch my Who!
& it sounds like your father DID have some pretty cool memories of the sixties - more than either of my folks did - both were SO depressingly dull - & O! I remember watching The Fugitive when I was small, but of course, I don't think I appreciated it as much then as I did now. & the barbarian used to tell me how she'd watch that along with The Avengers - but alas, I still can't get her to sit & watch any sixties era Who with me. (the only time I really DID, it was The Mind Robber & even SHE thought Two was looking up Not!Jamie's kilt at one point. I was . . . highly amused, to say the least!)
I wonder if they were aware of the subtext... *grins*
I have a good feeling they totally weren't. ::giggle::
I think my favourite thing regarding the photobooth scene is just how confused he is about it.
As I described him in my recap last night, he looks all sort of, 'Meh, I don't know what the hell is going on here.' & I LOVE IT! & awww, Two's crazy little face. ::hugs him:: (I fangirled like crazy in my recap of The Faceless Ones - for such a sad recon, I got a LOT of fangirling out of it!)
