Rules: pick five (5) shows, then answer the following questions and tag people.
I was tagged by the lovely & talented @deathly-shipper. Thank you so much!
It’s extremely hard, as a telly addict, to pick only five shows, so I’ve gone withe first 5 that came to mind. In no particular order:
Doctor Who (BBC)
Good Omens (Amazon Prime/BBC)
Ashes To Ashes (BBC)
Unforgotten (ITV)
This Country (BBC)
Who is your favourite character in #2?
Crowley, by the merest smidge.
Who is your least favourite character in #1?
Oh blimey! I’l certainly get into trouble with this one if I’m not careful. Should I admit it? *wrings my hands* No, it’s best that I don’t.
What is your favourite episode of #4?
Oooh err.... probably the finale of S1
What is your favourite season of #5?
Being British and above the age of 25, I don’t use the word ‘season’ about TV unless I really really have to. Anyway, I’ll opt for the third series.
What is your favourite episode of #3?
Obviously the bank vault episode in S1 has a special place in my heart, but the very last episode, in S3, where we found out the truth was gripping
What is your favourite episode of #5?
Really tricky to choose but I’m plumping for Kerry joining the book club.
How long have you watched #1?
It might shock you to know it’s been 57 years.
How did you become interested in #3?
I hadn’t been very impressed by “Life On Mars” when it started, but seeing Philip Glenister in “Cranford” persuaded me to give this sequel a go. I ended up loving every minute of it.
Who is your favourite actor in #4?
I’ve loved Nicola Walker for decades, and Sanjeev Bhaskar has a very special place in my heart, having seen him in person, so I’ll opt for both of them.
Which do you prefer, #1, #2, or #5?
Well… 1+2 win over 5. But IF I had to choose, I suppose it’d be logical to choose 1 since Doctor Who has dominated my life since S4.
Which show have you seen more episodes of, #1 or #3?
Definitely more of no. 1, hands down.
If you could be anyone from #4, who would you be?
This is a mean question because most of the people in this have had horrible lives. IF I had to choose, at least DCI Cassie Stuart gets to quaff glasses of wine with Peter Egan (weird to think he was a bit of a heart throb when he starred alongside Penelope Wilton in “Ever Decreasing Circles”).
Would a crossover between #3 and #4 work?
Yes, because in some respects police officers solving crimes and/or murder mysteries are involved. Not sure how Cassie would react to Gene Hunt though.
Pair two characters in #1 who would make an unlikely but strangely okay couple?
I think I already do this on a daily basis by putting Donna Noble with the Tenth Doctor; but I also think she’d be pretty great with the Twelfth Doctor, the Ninth Doctor or the Eighth Doctor.
Which show has the better storyline, #3 or #5?
These two shows have very different approaches so it’d be unfair to compare them like this. However, “Ashes To Ashes” had me gripped from the first episode.
Which show has better theme music, #2 or #4?
I can’t even remember the music during “Unforgotten” without rewatching an episode, so I’ll definitely have to choose “Good Omens” for this one.
