altogetherisiIt's Christmas Eve!
We're going to my gran's later today, to spend Christmas and Boxing Day... and possibly all the rest of the days this year, somehow we haven't really come to conclusive plans.
Am seeing Hamlet again, without David Tennant unfortunately, on Jan 1st, but I'm sure it will still be good. I was interested in Edward Bennett's acting, because Laertes in one of my favourite characters and because LLL was so brilliant, and it will be good to have a direct comparison of Hamlets. I just worry that he'll do some things that were of the production but feel far too much like the were David's, like the hair acting, and that that would make me sad... I don't know, to what degree do understudies imitate the interpretation of the actor the are filling in for? Do the get the opportunity to get more comfortable in the role if they are standing in for an extended absence?
Very much looking forward to the Christmas episode of Doctor Who- weirdly the gap between the end of the series in the spring and the Christmas ep alwas seems shorter to me than the gap between the Christmas ep and more eps or Torchwood or whatever, even though time and calendars and things tell me this is ridiculous. IDK, OK, it just does. Maybe it's because of the lack of publicity, or how I kinda phase n and out of fandom or something...
Anyway, my computer is mildly more broken than usual, and I'm not sure how regular/ sporadic my access to teh interwebs will be in the upcoming days, but I hope everyone has a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
Seriously, 2009 is going to ROCK.
Alright, I love you, bye.
