For those in the UK and interested in the Tour de France: a petition to make it a category A event to ensure it is available on terrestrial TV. Not sure how much difference it will have if it ever gets legs, but worth a punt!

am kinda obsessed right now with this trapeze coat. not in love with that mod hat/cap. am more partial to cloche hats (late 1920s-30s). they also had trapeze coats in that era.

Can't say too much at present but during the early summer my friend, Felipe and I took part in the BBC series "Amanda and Alan's Spanish Job". This TV series will be screened weekly from 24th January. It features UK celebrities, Amanda Holden and Alan Carr, restoring an old property in the town of Moclin, just north of Granada.
More details will be released about our part in this series in due course.

SAS Rogue Heroes tonight. Enjoyed the first episode of the second season. Some interesting characters and unarguably a compelling part of history. Some great music as well. Really well done.

This isn't a perfect example, but back in 2008 the series "Life After People" had both UK and US narration for the same show, which gives an interesting example of how different a tone can be set just by the soundtrack - Here's the first minute in each language of S02E07.

I was talking to somebody a few days ago about how "The Curse of Oak Island" would be an entirely different show in the UK - Each season would be cut down to 2 or 3 episodes, there would be much more emphasis on the archaeology and the technology, and the narration wouldn't be anything like as dramatic and irritating.
The Day of the Jackal is a good series. Starting the finale of the series and can confirm it's worth a watch.
Dalek from Dr Who - crocheted using 100% cotton yarn - £30 plus £5 p&p to UK (can look at worldwide postage if necessary.)
I'm donating 25% of all proceeds from crochet sales in December to Thamra a Palestinian grassroots organisation growing veg, sharing seeds/ seedlings with local families and facilitating Horticulture Therapy with traumatised Gazan people.
