Yeah my mum's upstairs neighbour was a student flat, the landlord kicked the students out over the summer and was making an absolute fortune renting it out to festival types. Thousands for your bog standard shabbily furnished tenement student flat. Some theatre group stayed there one year and had a party and puked out the window into my mum's garden.

PriorMarcus posted:Looking online it seems like the average train cost is about about £25 return, does that seem about right? Buses are very regular, you can get a Citylink or a Megabus from Buchanan Street bus station to St Andrews Square very easily. That's what I did when I was a student living in Glasgow returning home to visit. Significantly cheaper than the train and not much longer a journey.

I liked Penny Dreadful, but yeah jesus christ that accent is so terrible. And it's not like her character particularly needs to be Irish, couldn't they just let her use her real accent?

Pablo Bluth posted:Is it time for a new thread title yet? Piers is so old hat and irrelevant, mentioning him in any context is like a bit from one of those "I love the 90's" programmes. Didn't the yanks get rid of him? The thread title is probably just in time for his triumphant return to British televsion, now that the whole phone hacking thing has been swept under the carpet.

Anyone been watching The Honourable Woman? I loved the Shadow Line (by the same writer/director) so was looking forward to it, and have just realised I completely forgot it was on, and it's now three episodes in. And iPlayer seems to be hosed for some reason.

I'd love to read some of the tabloid criticism of Ghostwatch. Looking at wikipedia, a couple of kids supposedly got PTSD from watching it, and one 18 year old with learning difficulties killed himself because his pipes were making noises after the show and he thought the ghosts were after him.

pentyne posted:Fair enough. Unlike the U.S., that sort of thing is definitely a small minority view. But it does exist. Private religious schools are a thing. A history teacher friend of mine had one on his teacher training course- she asked if she could excuse herself from teaching the prehistoric Scotland module, on the grounds that it didn't happen because the earth is only 6000 years old...

tsob posted:Is Antartica that much more difficult to navigate and survive than the Artic? It would seem if they could drive to the North Pole, they could conceivably drive to the South - I've no idea of what the differences in terrain or environmental conditions there would be though, so perhaps not. I'm no geographer but I think the arctic is just ice but antarctica has mountains and poo poo.

Well in the past he has said he opposes the license fee, so they won't have any money to make documentaries nobody will watch, unless they have adverts.

crispix posted:I was a big fan of The Office when I was a youngin. David Brent: Life on the Road was on TV last night. I hadn't seen it. I watched it and it was utter poo poo. It was like what The Office Christmas special probably would have been if Gervais had done it alone. It feels like he never understood why people liked The Office. Yeah over the years it has become increasingly clear that Stephen Merchant was the talent in that pairing, and David Brent being a oval office was less genius comic creation and more Ricky playing himself.
