We've got a bird trapped in our chimney. There's no way of getting it out and it's understandably kicking up a hell of a fuss. Poor thing. And poor me. It's not nice to hear the sad little creature desperately trying to escape.
Hands up, who watched Doctor Who on Saturday night? *Giraffe-a-licious waves frantically* Wasn't it great? I have to say that I was rather disappointed with the Christmas special so it was a relief to see the show back on tip top form. Catherine Tate is an excellent addition to the cast. I can't say that I'm a fan of her comedy but she's landed herself a great character here and is making the most of it. It also means that the dynamic between the Doctor and his assistant has changed and as a result the show feels a lot fresher than for most of the last series. I suppose I should add a few words on the subject of David Tennant. How does charismatic, handsome and hilarious sound? Sigh.

I saw Doctor Who too! Yes, it was brilliant - looks like we finally have a companion who is going to be a friend, rather than a girlfriend. I was getting increasingly fed up with the romantic angle, it's good to see the dynamics getting back to where they were with the old series.
Also - it was FUNNY! Classic comedy tricks, doors and windows. I think the new series was starting to take itself a little too seriously, and suffering for it, so it's really good to see some comedy. Like you, I'm not such a fan of Catherine Tate's characters in some of her other work, but you've got to admit the woman is talented. As for DT - I think you said it all, already.
Let's hope the series lives up to the high standard of this first episode.
