I've been watching this for the first time in ages and i think it's one of his best performances. I love Paul Bettany I loved Gladiator though "what we do in life echoes in eternity" *rides through thread with sword held aloft*

it's only frozen water

Oh, mine's due to me being a bit cigarette-heavy over Christmas, although I've never really been much of an eater anyway, but the cigarettes get rid of whatever appetite I have left. I enjoy cooking, but we've got an awful kitchen and it's too much hassle.

Basically it's a drink. You just have to melt it in your gob first

I love that bit when he walks through the cornfield. In summer I walk through fields doing that

Tut tut! Living off fags isn't good I've never smoked. Well, not tobacco anyhow

The photography in that film is exquisite the lighting the composition everything oh and the music is fab!

Agreed, I want to see it again now!

Are you going to watch episodes 1 and 2 again in the wee small hours?

Hahaha, oh I'm a bugger for it. Always trying to quit. Managed five months in 2011, did two months between October - November. Will eventually do it, especially now I have the e-cigarette vape thing.

As for smoking anything but tobacco. Oh, what I wouldn't give! All in the pursuit of creativity, of course...

Russell Crowe! He wasn't bad in 'Romper Stomper', but I dunno. Something about him I can't shake. I love that in the Southern Hemisphere, New Zealand and Australia argue about which country he belongs to. No one wants to accept responsibility!

He's a bit lairy IRL from what one reads Eye candy when younger though.

Have we asked you before nood...are you a fan of Vikings?

hehehehhehee i dunno i do have the dvd of gladiator.......*rides round thread on horsey cat* are you not entertained??

Ooh who was he?


I spent a very busy day doing unspeakable things to bull calves. Chins better close his eyes and cross his legs.

Tonight or tomorrow morning it will be s1 ep2, I won't come back until finished

There are some roles he just works really well in....he was so lovely in The Crossing and sweet in The Sum of Us....really good in LA Confidential and A Beautiful Mind, the aforementioned Master and Commander Gladiator but Robin Hood and anything with an accent

Yippeee!!!

I wonder if the same wasn't happening here tk...the bellowing from the sheds just up the track was shocking all afternoon!! This being a beef farm...quite likely

If you fell off horsey cat into a pile of cow poo I'd be monumentally entertained

Tom Clarke was his grandfather (or great grandfather i forget which) he looks the spitting image of him and when he visited Ireland people were buying him drinks all the time when they found out!!!


I am an excellent catwoman

Pssst....it's a different link

Impressed! Will he be part of the Easter shenanigans here?

I don't think so

bah! (now i DO look like grumpy cat )

probably need some christmas chocolate to cheer myself up now....

Ive only got three alcowol filled chocolate bottles off the tree and one marzipan choc left

I have a WHOLE BOX of Anthon Berg champagne marzipan left *lick lips*
fancy coming round mine for a cuppa?!

Can you hear the sound of galloping hooves approaching? It's me in me clogs Those sound absolutely LUSH!!!!!!

What, Vikings in general? Or the TV Series?

they are so delicious!!!

i'll pop the kettle on ....ooooo programme about ancient egypt bbc2

I just watched EastEnders on iPlayer. Love my soaps. Got my Aussie flatmate into EastEnders too, except it's a pain as she's always asking questions throughout the episode. I have to put on the subtitles to cope!!

What was the Ancient Egypt doco like? Love me a bit of Ancient Egypt. Was fascinated by Tutankhamen as a kid!

it's just started on bbc2 now nood!
