New teev

I just saw a new (to here) comedy program called The Robinsons and hey, it's very funny; I like its style! And it has Martin Freeman as another hapless but lovable loser and Anna Massey as the mother, what's not to like? Yay!

On just before it so I caught the tail end was Monarch of the Glen in which I was surprised to see Tom Baker. I couldn't help but see him as an aging Doctor without his scarf wandering about the Highlands.

He made a very good eccentric aged uncle in that series.

I can imagine! I don't know who all the people are except for Molly and Golly (!!!) and the two who left at the end last night, Lexie and Duncan--I saw that series a while back--so I'd have to get into it again and work out who everyone is. It looks like it's almost a whole new cast.

Have you ever seen the BBC version of 'The Silver Chair' (of Chronicles of Narnia) with Tom Baker as Puddleglum? He was FANTASTIC.

I must have! I saw that years ago but I don't remember him. He'd be great though. I saw that series on DVD recently and was tempted to add it to my tottering pile.
