I've never seen Life on Mars or Ashes to Ashes but have been meaning to watch both since they were first broadcast!

Yes, although Ashes to Ashes isn't quite as good.

[gag]

Sam and me was talking about life on mars and ashes to ashes other day and saying we need to rewatch them, I saw them when they first come on and know they where good.

Just started watching the series Oz, only watched first episode, I'm not fully sure what to make of it, didn't think it was rubbish just didn't quite grab me as much as I thought, so I'll watch whole first series then decide if to bother carrying on with rest of the other series.

Amusing Doctor Who reference in a 91 episode of The Bill I saw the other day. Reg and Datta get run over trying to arrest a pensioner with a motorised wheelchair! He later protests to Sgt Peters that he's the one in the wheelchair, to which Peters responds "That doesn't give you the right to behave like a Dalek!"

Funnily enough, me and Mrs Mojo have just finished rewatching both series of Life On Mars... and it’s still brilliant.
One of my favourite series of all time - I can’t recommend it highly enough.

More Neighbours 2004...

We're back to a refrain of "poor Lana" this week, who just cannot seem to win. Lana tries to be a good friend and pushes Sky into making up with Boyd, only to be clearly less than thrilled when she does, and looks as though she might throw up when she spies them making out in Sky's car. Actually, I had a similar reaction, which is weird, cause I've enjoyed them together for most of this season, but now it just feels icky. Boyd's later suggestion of a double date has to go down in the List of Bad Ideas. He seems oblivious to how obviously uncomfortable Sky is throughout, but Lana's date is less blind, and takes a few hours to drop Lana cold, because she can see how much she's in love with Sky. Lana tries to deny it, of course, but to no avail, with the girl noting that when Boyd put his arm around Sky, "you looked like you wanted to punch him." However she warns her that Sky will break her heart.

And then Sky goes and does just that. Having seemed to be on the verge of self-realisation, she plunges right back into denial and decides her recent jealousy was just insecurity over their friendship. She seems happy with this self-justification, but then for some truly WTF bizarre reason decides to go and tell Lana all about it, a conversation that starts with her admitting to being jealous and then even calling Lana her fricking soulmate before ending with the "but not like that!" refrain. You can see Lana's eyes light up with hope at the start of this one-sided ramble, only to then get utterly crushed. This ramble ends with Sky looking thoroughly cheerful at being back in Denial, while Lana looks like she wouldn't mind chucking herself in Lassiters Lake. WTF Sky.

Poor Lana. Bridget Neval continues to do fragility, vulnerability and quiet suffering so well that she can break your heart just with a single look.
