BBC TV Blah&Yay
New series Paradox was as paradoxical as most of Alanis Morissette's song "Isn't it ironic" is ironic...
I gave it a go because of the trailers which promised dilemmas about when to intervene when one knows the future.
There was no dilemma, the question was not even asked. They were just too late.
Blah.
The basic plot device was a bore. They get a few pictures from the future, they tick the boxes identifying what they are and then try to intervene. No detecting, no clues, just:"Oh, this is a road sign"...boring.
The character were a bit characiture without any hint of silliness which might make it bearable. Broody arrogant geeky scientists make great Bond villains but leave them out of the serious series okay? And with Ashes to Ashes in mind and looking at this I start to wonder if all UK female police personnel actualy are self important b*tches...
Hopefully next week they will have a paradox but I'm not going to be around to watch it.
Shirley Bassey is a Goddess. I loved the Imagine documentary, the song and the lady herself. I want that CD, I want her to tour, I want to see her in concert.and my Lord I want to have her body when I'm 72. What a lady!!! She is one of those icons who without me really noticing has always been singing through my life. This documentary was brilliant as it only slightly covered her history but showed her struggling with the music, lyrics and recording techniques she was not used to and succeeding at it.
