Thanks to Lach's continuing status as landlady, we continue with world domination through some past triumphs of The Moff.
Both Sides of the Paper
Sarah’s anxiety over exams. Here we see the earliest beginnings of a confusion of dream and reality that would reach its full potential in the Dream Lord (and sort of in the alternative universes of The Wedding of River Song), but we get it elsewhere in Press Gang as well.
Sarah’s relationship with Lynda is always a tense one. Kenny seems to have an easier time with Lynda.
Lynda: ‘Are you saying I haven’t got a sense of humour?’
Spike: ‘That was a joke.’
The headmaster is very prrrrrrrim, isn’t he?
Lynda has a really beautiful smile that is on display in this episode. We don’t get to see it that often.
Nice to see Colin saving the day, though it’s against his will.
Money, Love and Birdseed
The music at the beginning of this episode is rather odd with those vocal noises.
Lynda’s dreams in this one are even more Dream-Lordish. ‘Damn!’
Sort of an odd episode, Billy solving a crime and the pigeons everywhere. For some reason Tiddler looks older in this episode, but in the next she seems back to normal.
Kenny: ‘Well, people say I’m too reasonable to have opinions, but I don’t know about that.’
Accent watch: When Spike says ‘I’ll have to chat to your parents’ his accent seems to go very British on the last couple of words.
Good comic timing on Colin’s part (as well as good editing) on that line ‘…with a tennis racket.’
Monday - Tuesday
A very timey-wimey structure as Moffat plays with chronology through flashbacks – or are they flash-forwards?
Accent watch: Spike’s accent goes weird on the word ‘louder’. Later at David’s place it might have been better for him to say ‘yard’ for ‘garden’ … suppose it depends upon how long he’s supposed to have been living in the UK.
Tuesday is cancelled. There isn’t going to be a Tuesday. Damn, this episode was well done. Hard to do suicide on a kids’ show, but this is part of why it became more than a kids’ show.
The first part of the credits is silent for the first time, then no voiceovers and sombre music. Shades of Earthshock to some degree.
Shouldn’t I Be Taller?
The Gaz.
Colin: ‘It just smells of taste.’
Kenny: ‘But nothing’s happening in my private life. I don’t even have one.’
We really see Lynda’s vulnerability that was hinted at earlier. It took something like this to get to her, but she could be got to. Fortunately she cared enough about ‘The Gaz’ to come back.

Three more next week?
We could always have breakfasts at Czars:p:cool:. Colin and the Gaz are quite funny, but it also shows how shallow Julie is.
I'm up for more, and series 2 has definitely one of my favourites "The rest of my life". It really was not a kiddies show, was it.
Probably the page. Sounds something like a message I've had before. May be temporary.
Site is still like it. It's the DWTV site, so perhaps the huge number of people freaking out over the surprise regeneration or similar have crashed it!
Comments
We are still looking for some virgins as well:D. I love Beltaine and the fires and the celebrations:).
Might have to settle for some Virgin New Adventures instead
<sulks> I want a real virgin, nothing else will do <stamps foot>:mad:
I'm surprised rural Englandfordshire isn't full of them
I dare say they are in hiding
I wouldn't be at all surprised
But then little does surprise you does it?
So true, so true
*whistles innocently*
Get back to your dusting while I rustle up some lunch
Pig in a poke?
or Borscht in a bucket?
:eek::eek: **polishes halo** I don't know what you two mean.
Outie would never do anything like that:eek:, but you did get it right that we are a true philantropic pair (sp.).
as in its etymological root of "loving mankind" I dare say
I've already done the dusting today, and anything I missed can wait, the new cleaning droids will be here tomorrow
I'm sure he wouldn't, he's such a fine upstanding gentlemen
He certainly is:D
when you remember his pills?
Exactly. However, he has been AWOL for a while, so God knows that he has been up to:eek:.
Probably not much if he's missed his meds
Probably the page. Sounds something like a message I've had before. May be temporary.

Do we have someone like a court jester hanging around the inn that could entertain me?
Well, Webby is only part-time.
**snoggs Hammy**
Evening beautiful one, will listen to Vaughan Williams "Lark ascending" now.
