Wow, I did not realise the twitching, boiling hate that people have for the later seasons of Sherlock!

Wasn't Dancer a reindeer?

Can't wait for this!

I'd watch that!

I read yesterday that Jim Carrey improvised the request for kisses in Me, Myself & Irene and it's made me smile every time I think about it.

I'd say that extends to most of the first two series. How do you feel about Series 4, John? I find it pretty unwatchable.

I remember Michael Jackson's Thriller video scaring the crap out of me when I was six.

Holy shit this is fierce

Or in a road that is actually described as a "cul de sac". You've probably seen these in Ireland a lot!

Which at least is vaguely accurate. Pronouncing it "grah" is the same kind of overcorrection that leads tennis commentators to pronounce "Monfils" as "Monfee".

Anyone know who decided to start pronouncing "coup de grâce" as "coup de gras" in English, i.e. without the "ace" sounded like it should be in French? I'm hearing it everywhere! Please let me know so that I can insert a Petit Robert* in them. (*Which a US colleague of mine calls "Little Bob" 😍)
