Many and varied. I will generally watch anything!
some programmes thrill me to the very core of my being.
In particular:
Never Mind the Buzzcocks,
University Challenge,
Spaced,
League of Gentlemen, and
Friends.
As many as possible.
Trace is someone who inspired a lot of people to be that extra 20% more than who they *could* be.
Musical hero-wise, the people I admire are Sufjan Stevens, James Broad, all of Cheap Trick, Frank Zappa, the Beatles, James MacColl, and all the random occurrences that happen in people's lives that tell them to do things.
Other that that, I wouldn't say I had heroes as such; just people who deserve respect. It could be for all manner of things. Mainly for people who aren't afraid to be themselves and find courage and strength even though they don't think they have it.
