The Midnight Meat Train - adaptation of a Clive Barker short story. A photographer becomes obsessed with a killer who bludgeons people to death late at night on the New York Subway. For me, the interest comes from this film starring my second-favourite actress in the whole world, Leslie Bibb. In this, she has more screen time than in any of her films to date and doesn't disappoint, confidently tackling her role as female lead and looking gorgeous throughout. The film itself is OK. Horror isn't my favourite genre but this is well made and suitably atmospheric, but perhaps stretched a bit thin over 98 minutes - 3/5
Grand Designs: The New England Gble House, Sussex - nice woman, nice house - 4/5
Supercarrier: Into The Danger Zone - 4/5
Dead Set: Episode 2 - still fantastic - 5/5
The Daily Show: 29th October - 4/5
Nightmare In Suburbia: The Stiletto Goddess - 3/5
Katie & Peter: The Next Chapter: Katie & Peter's African Adventure - K&P head off to South Africa to renew their wedding vows. Perfectly fine programme, but I was twice compelled to shout at the television by the narrator referring to planes quite clearly driven by propellors as 'jets'. Katie wore Ugg boots for the ceremony, quite obviously drawing inspiration from Patricia Potter when, in Holby City, her character married Owen, Tish wearing Uggs under her dress - 4/5
Question Time - QT live from Washington D.C. The most striking thing about this was the difference between Omaba and McCain supporters in the audience. By and large, the Obama supporters were well-behaved, but the McCainiacs would boo anything they disagreed with or cheer like jocks at the stuff they agreed with. Uncouth rabble! Best line went to Simon Schama when he called a loud-mouthed Republican a 'blowhard'.
Woman gets promoted, and her 34-year-old sister immediately assumes she’s
‘inheriting’ the job despite having no training for it: ‘Yesterday she
updated her LinkedIn to say she's starting at my company. She has not
applied’

I wish careers were inherited; it would make things so much easier
No training, no education, only good old heritage. I'm not even joking; it
would be easi...
