Billie Piper wowed all of us geek b0ys with her turn as Rose in Dr Who (well, more so the first season than the second when she turned into a bit of an overbearing prat) so it was with more than a little interest I read she was starring as Belle in the television adaptation of Belle de Jour. I mean, a Doctor’s companion in sexy knickers – what’s not to like?
Daniel emailed me this evening to point out that Channel 9 have picked up the local rights. I emailed him back and said “I torrented the first episode but it was only video quality in 4:3 so I didn’t bother with the rest”.
He pointed out (quite rightly) that I’m a video snob. For my sins I’m going to go and watch the spare analogue television in mono.
I give myself five minutes max.
Geebus. They’re MOVIEFYING that tripe?
Noooooo… Billie! It’ll ruin what small credit you’ve regained after the tragic “Honey to the Bee”, don’t do it!
