‘Mission Impossible’ holiday promo
Santa comes to the North Pole and finds a message from the 88 IMF lot. They all wear horrible clothes except for Nicholas and wish viewers a happy holidays. This looks naff.
‘The Man In The Iron Mask’ (1998) trailer
Louis XIV is a bad king and a tyrant. The musketeers have an intensely completive relationship and a plan. I love this film.
‘Fantastic Four’ TV spot
Nope.
Gluten free Rocky Road bar slice - yum.
Peanuts - yum.
Vegan organic Italian Tomato & Basil soup - good.
Ginger & Lemongrass drink with Kombucha - nothing special.
Remember the wretched 1993 - 1994 TV show ‘Time Trax’?
I am reading ‘The King’s Concubine’.
The 80s ‘Choose Your Own Adventure’ books are remembered.
A new ‘Vorkosigan’ novel in 2016! Yay!

On ‘Hollyoaks’: Sienna makes a Titanic model. Joe’s still in hospital. Lockie and John-Paul act like dogs in heat. Porsche smashes up Lockie’s car and he gaslights her by claming to be addicted to snooker betting. Reenie tries disability fraud. Dr S’avage does flagrant misrepresentations and lies. Reenie whines about Pete. Characters have lost the run of themselves completely. Leela emotionally traumatises Peri some more. Dr S’avage threatens Reenie with injurious falsehoods. Where is Ben? Porsche is misused. Frankie tries to stop the adoption. Frankie rants about Esther’s baby.
Tom and Peri find Frankie culturally disruptive. Nana shows off her selfie stick. Cleo whines. Porsche drags Lockie to a GA meeting. He sounds like he is from Essex not Scotland. Reenie drinks and her multiple fractures seem to vanish. Reenie calls Sienna “Kate Middleton” and a fight breaks out. Sienna’s Titanic model is smashed and Cleo cries as Reenie endangers society. Porsche is raucous about Lockie coming clean. Reenie is arrested for ABH.
Frankie berates John-Paul overlooking that Craig ditched him and that she tried to steal his son. Where is Matthew? Frankie tries to steal Peri’s baby. Cleo looks up creepy Pete. Lockie is revealed to be cheating on John-Paul with Mercedes. Man whore! Man whore! I’m amazed end stage syphilis isn’t rampant.
Pete blackmails Cleo for sex - she’s too stupid to see it. Mercedes justifies shagging Lockie. How long has it been going on? Where is Cameron? John-Paul calls Mercedes selfish. Diane sobs over the missing Rose. Cleo brings Pete back home, she and everyone else don’t care that he is a sex offender. Scott shows up. Frankie interferes more. Cleo doesn’t care about Porsche. Pete asks Reenie to marry him and then makes Cleo have sex with him. Lockie is a total manwhore. Scott has a Beefcake Boyz poster on his wall.
Why are he and Tegan still doing the fake kidnapping? Mercedes and Lockie make out some more. Tom scrunches up a sonogram. Tegan does something stupid, nothing new there. Nobody cares about Porsche. The McQueens are all awful.
