Mar. 19th, 2010 05:34 pmMissed the start of the series about the Natural History Museum last night but by the miracle of modern life watched it today... fascinating to see the collections behind the scenes. All layman's-terms stuff, of course, but not annoyingly so, and not too much zany camerawork. Will definitly catch the resto fo the series.
Also, The Bubble- last night's was a big improvement on the start of the series- relaxing and having fun with it, I guess; and how refreshing to get two female comedians at once! A panel game with two men (host + one guest) and two women! You don't necessarily even realise how used you are to male host, two teams of three men- the absolute max is one woman per team- [1] until you see one that isn't. (There were two female guests last week, as well, come to think of it. Julia H-B isn't a comedian though.)
Didn't pass the Bechdel test, but then all of the guests were mostly talking to David, not to each other. ETA: Ooh, maybe Brand and Long did talk to each other in the Ghost Watch bit? Does talking about a poltergeist count? YES IT DOES. I shall have to rewatch now to check. OMG, how exciting!
(Josie is wearing a home-made Nye Bevan t-shirt. Best thing ever.)
(Also, Tim Key is flirting with David like a massive flirt.)
Does anybody have a sekrit download of this show? I may want to keep it forever.
([1]To be fair Buzzcocks did occasionally rise to four men and three women.)
