(Also: are you meant to say "I.T." or "it"? They changed the way they said it in the adverts and now I'm really confused.)irony in motionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01267779412971780658noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10831518.post-1141302052595434902006-03-02T12:20:00.000+00:002006-03-02T12:20:00.000+00:00Re.

It's just like a dynamic, global version of Notes & Queries*. Thanks, LF.<BR/><BR/>* whose potential Pash also investigated the other day. I expect we will shortly see Notes & Queries-type posts breaking out all over blogworld.

Apart from anything else, the series was really about what it's like to be in your late 20's, just before that whole 'having to grow up' thing kicks in (already ten years later than it did for our parents' generation). With the creators now firmly in their thirties, it would have to be a different show. I think there's a tiny bit in the Spaced special edition DVD where it shows Tim and Daisy, still in the house, but now holding a baby. I haven't seen it, and probably won't as I would cry big snotty tears.James Henryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16604261370633794445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10831518.post-1141295120538262812006-03-02T10:25:00.000+00:002006-03-02T10:25:00.000+00:00"Sure as eggs is eggs, sure as every odd-numbered ..."Sure as eggs is eggs, sure as every odd-numbered Star Trek movie is shit."

If they had made a 10th, I would have heard about it. Luckily, they didn't, because it might have turned out to be a horrendous piece of shit. Glad that didn't happen though, and that there was no 10th movie.
