"even though it seems really weird"

[eldritchhobbit]

Today is the first day of the new semester! My seminar(s) are mere hours away... Where did summer go again, exactly?


In other news...

* At Goodreads.com, I've created a Listopia list for the best Sherlock Holmes vs. Jack the Ripper Novels. It's a work in progress. Please take part and add books or vote if you're interested! Thanks so much. I'll have a new update soon to post here about my ongoing Sherlockian pastiche reading.

* I love Cabin Pressure. So much. This latest series was, yes, brilliant.

(And speaking of great series, the second series of Garrow's Law was fantastic, as expected.)

* This week also spells the return of Doctor Who.

Thanks to porpoise_song for getting me in the mood...





"But the thing is, we’ve taken away all the things that can possibly have happened, so I suppose the only thing that’s left, even though it seems really weird, must be the thing that did happen, in fact."
Martin Crieff, Cabin Pressure, "Paris"

I don't really watch Dr Who, but I saw Arthur Darville as Mephistophiles in Dr Faustus at The Globe and he was most cool. He shoots fireworks out of his fingers!

Good heavens, I bet that was so much fun to see!

It was. I loved it. I'm not sure whether or not they've filmed that one.

Fantastic.

Oh, I'll have to look! *fingers crossed*
