It's funny how you can find inspiration just about anywhere. I watched some...

I’m glad to see that CBeebies has snapped up David Tennant to read bedtime stories now that he’s no longer travelling the Whoniverse. They have had some fabulous actors doing this (and could make a fortune with a DVD of the best ones – are you listening BBC Worldwide?), but this for me is the [...]

Yes, he looks into the camera as if he's staring at his beautiful face in a mirror which is telling him he is the fairest in all the land.

Scarlett has flu - we cannot say if it is the pig variety but it is pretty nasty. I am hoping today is a Calpol free day as her temperature seems to have come down (according to my hand-on-forehead temperature reading), either way Day 5 looks like another day in pyjamas with no visitors and no journeys. I am a little 'up to here' with CBeebies so today I am going to try Nickelodeon Junior (although...
