It is a comedy based in the 30s or 40s, about a young, dumb, aristocrat type, called Bertie Wooster, played by Hugh Laurie, who keeps getting into scrapes. The series begins with Wooster totally drunk and in the dock for stealing a police mans hat as part of a bet with his friends. He highers a butler called Jeeves, played by Stephen Fry, who basically spends the rest of the series saving Wooster from the backlash of his actions and putting right his hairbrain schemes. There is a satire element, making fun of what is stereotypically English, it is kind of like the old Carry On's - but I think much funnier.
Cool
I see. Go that 
Though I don't know if I really want to start watching a new show at the moment lol.
Hihihi it might not be for you
But I like it. What sort of stuff do you normally watch?Yeah, you are probably right XD Go you
Ummmm Doctor Who and South Park are my favourite 2 shows ever. Survivor, The Amazing Race. I use to watch House and Lost and Desperate Housewives, but they have finished. I like Family Guy. MLP:FIM is AWESOMEEEEEEEE Pokemon, Ben 10. DBZ is a classic I can get into cartoons if they are good. I like watching a lot of sport too What do you like to watch?
I like films and comedy. I do think some of the modern cartoons are really good - Megamind, Iceage and anything with the penguins from Madagascar in it
those penguins are brilliant

I don't know why...I like when cats miau, that makes them soft, or at least that is the theory I had when I was little when I had a cat
I actually rescued a kitten few years ago, but I was unsure whether my landlord will allow me to keep her so I gave her away. Thankfully one of the people who met me on the street knew of no-kill shelter. Otherwise I would have never given her to any other kind of shelter
Good theory. It makes sense
.I read somewhere that when cats purr, it stops them getting arthritis. So people who own cats rarely get it. I don't know if it is really true though.
Landlords are a pain ... don't tell mine, but I shouldn't have two animals, (and I have a dog and a cat). I will just deny it if they ever come around! I think they only put it in the contract in case you have a dog that barks all the time though, so they can force you to get rid of it. But my dog is only little, and my cat is disabled, so I think they only count as one full animal
Didnt you say your dog barks a lot? If so, why didnt they ask you to get rid of it?

This is actually something I am biased against. I don't like the fact that people have "cookie cutter" views on things. I like to be a bit more original. Not just in physics but in everything else as well. For example, if a person says they are against abortion I know they are republican so this also means they want to cut taxes and also it means they are against animal rights, etc. I dont like such "packaged" views. I like each topic approached separately. So likewise with physics. I wont buy "string theory package" unless I am convinced that there was a good reason for this particular package and nothing else. I like to explore each ingredient ideas on its own and preferably create my own.

They won't, she's not that bad. Only barks when people come up the drive.

Let's start with the sexuality of the 16 hundreds - pretty much anything went. Buy the 17 hundreds they connected morality to work ethic - when people were having sex they were not working, so the government put a crack down. This was when the church began to tell people they were going to hell of they had sex (this also had to do with the Fire of London, some religious people thought god was punishing them). Have you heard about William Hogarth's 'A Rake's Progress' and 'A Harlot's Progress'? These were painted in the 17 hundreds, beginning negative attributed about sexuality. Michel Foucault writes about this topic in depths, it's good reading, if you're interested... He h as some very alternative views, so be warned!

I like Ice Age, though I haven't seen #4 yet. I haven't seen those other 2 you mentioned either :S I'm not really big on movies though XDWhat are your favourite films and comedys?
Ooh.... I don't know. I am really bad at making decisions about them. When we go to choose a film, I'm always the once saying, "but what do you want to watch?" I do like 'Shrek'... 'Megamind' is probably my favorite though... Or The 'Never Ending Story'.... 'Labyrinth' and 'Dark Crystal'... Really bad at making decisions!
Do you have a favorite?

I see XD Cool
I have seen Shrek before I haven't seen the other movies though XD........... I know the feeling in regards to making decisions. But for me it is about a lot of things. Trying to choose which thing to see or do, can be very hard XD
Hmmm, well I like Hitch Hikers Guide To The Galaxy, Police Academy, Pirates of the Caribbean series. I don't really watch many movies. I more prefer shows

I love Pirates of the Caribbean too! I wouldn't mind having a ship like that and sailing the sea. Probably wouldn't be too fond of the piracy though...
