A bit more post-Christmas tutti quanti

That was a very good speech—warm, and heartfelt, and moving. His Majesty’s voice was soothing and calm, and it felt meaningful and great, touching all the right strings—love, thoughtfulness and compassion. Absolutely adored every minute of it.

Farmageddon (BBC 1) from my beloved Aardman Animation contained a fair dose of silliness, but my favourite part was all the Easter eggs—references to BBC News, “Space Odyssey-2001” and to “Doctor Who” (Tom Baker as the Fourth Doctor in his stripy scarf).
***
For the first time in my life I’m watching “The Wizard of Oz” and am feeling odd: to see the original of what later had become “The Wizard of the Emerald City” for the Soviets is a bit unsettling, but amusing.
UPD. Jeez, it’s weird.
