One True Show; British place names

I've been staying with my parents for the last week (being ill while having to prepare for exams is a good excuse for that sort of thing). Whenever I'm at my parents' my fanvid consumption increases, because absent the internet, this is the easiest 'five minute fandom boost' to get. This reminds me that maybe I should post a reminder to people here about my vidrecs journal, because that's actually active now. Mostly. I may still shut up again for a few weeks, when the exams phase gets hot, but I have several entries already in the pipeline so I should be fine for the next two or three weeks at least.

The other thing increased fanvid consumption reminds me of is that Farscape is and remains the One True Show. Sorry Life on Mars. I may be writing more about you these days, but Farscape will always be closer to my heart - and not just because it didn't so callously break it. (Everyone who knows Farscape knows that Farscape breaks hearts lovingly, not callously.)

Dammit, I need new people to 'scape. Preferably live and in person. Any volunteers? K., maybe? C'mon, you like science fiction, you like sf tv, what could possibly go wrong? *veg*

Speaking of infecting people with shows - I may have found a new victim for Life on Mars. Time will tell.

A note to the British: you may want to rethink how you spell and/or pronounce place names. ;-) When I learned, recently, that "Happisburgh" is pronounced "Hazeborough"... well, it did set me to wondering, for about five seconds, if this was all just a bizarre prank you play on us foreigners. I mean... Salisbury... Edinburgh... Worcester... surely you can't be serious? :-D
