Loved Pillars of the Earth, still got to watch the last 2. Walking Dead is fabulous, I look forward to it every week, Mad Men is Lush (tu) love it, Vampire Diaries :-$, Merlin, looking forward to 3rd series of True Blood, Desperate Housewives, Medium, I better stop now :-$

Afterlife was good, starring Leslie Sharp atmospheric and an gloomy feel portraying the paranormal.


"Robert Bridge is a psychology lecturer, grieving the loss of his young son Josh, who was killed in a car accident three years earlier. A specialist in the study of psychic mediums, Robert is invited to an 'evening of clairvoyance' where he meets Alison Mundy. Reluctant and cautious, she is a far cry from the fraudulent psychics that sceptic Robert is used to. Alison is different, ever since she was a child she has seen spirits and after a near-death experience they have taken over her life - when she passes people in the street she isn't sure if they are dead or alive, when she lies in bed at night she can't escape the voices that cry out to her. Driven by a compulsion to help those around her, Alison seeks to resolve relationships torn apart by death. When Alison's readings provoke an adverse reaction in one of Robert's own pupils, he begins to study her with the intention of writing about her work and the people she helps. But their association is thrown into crisis when Alison reveals she is touch with Robert's son."

Morse. I've seen them all about a thousand times before, but when he's at his condescending best, I just can't bring myself to change the channel.


I Claudius. I got this on DVD, fully expecting it to never live-up to HBO's Rome, but so-far, I'm hooked. OK, Derek Jacobi's daft aging prosthetics (if you can call it that) during the individual prologues betrays the series' age, but the acting is superb - Jacobi has young Claudius down to every last twitch, for instance. And Si?n Phillips' Livia! Honestly, I don't think I've ever witnessed a more accomplished bitch than her on television.


The second Swedish Wallander with Krister Henriksson. I don't know what I love more about it. The deviation from Mankell's original work or the

I love I Claudius! There was a recent Radio version on Radio 4, with Derek Jacob playing the part of Augustus. The TV series hasn't aged particularly well, but the writing and acting are so good, you really don't mind.


From sublime to ridiculous, I have to admit to enjoying Episodes.


Have recently started series 1 of Mad Men, and rather enjoying that.

    • Southwark Council Parking Enforcement Corrupt Practices   Today, Southwark Council Parking Enforcement is illegally giving parking tickets to cars that are legally parked on Stradella Road at the end near to Halfmoon Lane.   Firstly, there are several bays at the beginning of Stradella Road that have no parking suspension sign.     Cars are parking legally and are being given parking tickets illegally.   Southwark Council Parking Enforcement officers have been made aware of this illegal behaviour and shown that they are no parking suspension notices in those bays and or in that part of the road; however, they continue to issues tickets illegally and cars continue to park in those bays unaware that they are (apparently) suspended because there is no notice to say such, in fact there is a notice to say 1hr parking between 8:30am and 6pm.   Further up Stradella Road, approximately 250+ metres, several cars were legally parked and there were no parking suspension notices; however, they were illegally issued with parking tickets. Subsequently, an agent for Southwark Council was putting up parking suspension notices in this part of the road at around 1:30-2pm but only after the legally parked cars had been illegally issued with illegal car parking tickets to try and make it look legal. This is clearly a deeply corrupt scam being undertaken by Southwark Council and its agents. It has been separately reported to the police, local councillors and the local MP. It will also be reported to Southwark Council, however, they are uncontactable until next week. Similar corrupt and illegal behaviour by Southwark Parking enforcement officers was also clearly identified in Halfmoon Lane.   It is quite likely to have occurred in other adjacent roads. Photographic and video evidence of these corrupt practices have been provided to the police to investigate and root out corruption in Southwark Council.
