I'm a Computer Science undergraduate in my final year studying at Reading University. I like music, movies, photography, reading and if I can ever get around to it, writing. Also a fan of horror, sci-fi and fantasy so there's plenty of re/blogging on those areas.
I write gig/event reviews at From The Pit

Many tweaks to this and web presence in general in the pipeline... when I get around to it.
Weekly Top Artists (via Last.fm):
I still haven’t seen the Series 2 finale of Sherlock. I think maybe subconsciously I’m trying to shorten the time I have to wait for Series 3. If I left it long enough then the previous two episodes would no longer be fresh in my mind so I’d have to watch Series 2 right from the beginning.
But if I did that then I may as well start right from the beginning from 1x01 and have a Sherlock Marathon! Oh woe is me! >:p
And while I’m at it, I’ll probably want to go back and rewatch Luther too.
<Mini-rant incoming…>
Speaking of a Sherlock marathon, the Sherlock - Series 1 and 2 Box Set is available to pre-order on Amazon… but I think I’ll wait for the Series 1, 2 and 3 Box Set.
Is it just me or does anyone else find it just a little annoying how for a second series and series thereafter they’ll release a standalone series box set (like Sherlock - Series 2 on DVD, also available to pre-order) and also a combined box set of all the series to date? It makes me want to wait until the show has stopped running and then get a combined all-series box set because it’s cheaper that way.

Red cars are cool.
In Doctor Who they seem to have a thing for shiny red cars, at least in Series 6. Including the latest occurrence, off the top of my head I know of three of them. Did I miss any?

Edit:
Turns out this show’s infatuation with red cars can be traced right back to the start of Eleven’s adventures. Does Moffat or whoever is responsible for sourcing the vehicles seen on the show have thing for red cars? Thanks to @aerliss for pointing out Rory’s red Mini to me on Twitter.
