Update from the house of Plague (Day Fnarg Year 2) 31st of December

Happy New Year in... some hours' time! :)

First, some lovely wholesome content.

With endless thanks to Owls, there is a NEW Staged video:



Ilovethemsomuchit'sRIDICULOUS.

They also won an award and made that hilarious too:



(Sidebar: Everything is better when they have Good Omens hair. ♥)

Also LOOK AT THIS. It is the MOST Good Omens picture ever:

Daily Dimash: Thousands of Miles, A Common Dream + Never Land

Dimash sang in New Year in China on the CCTV channel with Thousands of Miles, A Common Dream (万里梦同心), a duet with Yingxi Zhang. (Link goes to his instagram.

ETA:



Gorgeous, gorgeous song. (Prerecorded, obvs, he spent NY chilling w/friends). The song is based on the poetry of Zhang Jiuling of the Tang Dynasty. The poem was written to comfort friends who are about to travel a long journey.)

And then I remembered
this performance of 'Never Land' for the New Year Global Gala BTV (also China, but 2018) and had to include it. Completely the other side of the spectrum in every way possible. Yet I can't really argue with techno on top of a skyscraper with dancing polar bears! :D



Another performance here (Fantastic Carnival CCTV3), the set is incredible:

It's ridiculously warm today (15 degrees I think?). We never turned the heating on... Anyway, this made me laugh:

ETA: Our gingerbread house is finally finished. Darcy decided to model it after the house in Home Alone, and he has even put lights in it:

Word about that new episode got around fast. I saw your post yesterday and then hours later a friend was telling me about it.

A Happy (and healthier) New Year to all of you as well.

That's an amazing gingerbread house. My niece made one once and the dog ate it but I don't think it was anything like as splendid as that.

Happy New Year :)

I am currently back in the David Tennant fandom after watching "Around the world in 80 days". What a wonderful show. Are you watching this?

I have not yet watched "Staged". I was afraid with me not being a native speaker, most of its humor would be lost on me.

I keep meaning to, it seems delightful (everything with DT is!), so we might yet. :)

Do it, do it now! You won't regret it! Although I don't know whether it has fully aired yet in the UK / is fully available on i-player. If ever there was a series to binge, this one is. I could not stop.

There is already fanart and fanfictions and I love it how everyone is having a blast! If you need some more encouragement, read this:

It's also the most Doctorish he has been in a long time.

And? And? You must be through by now?

Oh yes, I'd love that! I haven't yet started to re-read the book but want to, for comparison. I have an old version from my father's youth.

Yeah, there were a lot of posts in the beginning saying it's nothing like the book, and woke etc. But I do love all the changes. It's a wonderful round perfect show.

So far I know about Miss Fix who was (male) Detective Fix in the book, the Indian princess he took home (and probably married even? Not sure on that), the Native Americans in the Wild West and that they did not travel by hot air balloon in the book but that it was added by the movie with David Niven and everyone has to do it now.

And the train being ripped apart was a ship in the book?

The episode in Hong Kong has a very memorable scene that sprung a lot of fan fiction authors into action, because of the whumping ;)
I honestly had not expected them to go that far in the show. Sadly it does not have any repercussions in the next episode as it should have — thus the fanfictions.

Yay! Please help spreading the love! I want action figures LOL

Today also the music was released, I already bought it from Amazon but it is also on Spotify and other things.

Maybe I do indeed go the customizing route. Can't say I hadn't thought about it!
I still have lots of Tens lying around that I bought years ago for that purpose but then my interests changed.
