TWIN PEAKS! TWIN PEAKS! TWIN PEAKS! TWIN PEAKS! BEST PROGRAMME EVER IN THE WHOLE WORLD!!! WATCH IT RIGHT NOW! RIGHT NOW!!! RIGHT NOW!! GO ON! DO IT! WATCH IT! IT'S SO AMAZING!
Second Favourite, It's gotta be THE MIGHTY BOOSH. Best piece of comedy I have ever seen, plus it really reflects my life.... that worries me abit though. My favourite episode from series 1 is either "Bollo" cos mr. Susan is my homeboy and i love the ape of death song, or "jungle" because i can't imagine my life without Tommy Nucar's cheese song. In series 2 my favourite episode is "The legend of Old Gregg" because I love the fact that old Gregg is loosely based on Rick James and the whole feel to that episode has a really cool yet dark undertone. But it must have been soooo much fun to film the "New Sound" one. I would've loved to be on set for that! The imagery! The new, lovable characters! The celebrity appearances! Ooohh.. that episode keeps me warm on dark winters nights.
TWIN PEAKS! Gee whiz, what a programme! The bit where the little dude in the red room is talking backwards/forwards and then starts dancing... GENIUS! (I "heart" the log-lady)
Third Favourite THE A-TEAM!!!!!!! duhduhduhduh... duhduhduh! I love Howlin' Mad Murdock!! he's my boyf!
And let's not be hasty! NEIGHBOURS! the light of my life, literally, I can;t live without it! Chris Cousens is my bessie!

Peewee's playhouse,Diagnosis Murder, House, Poirot,ace ventura,scrubs,maid marrion and her merry men,ren and stimpy, cow and chicken, fosters home for imaginary friends, peep show, knightrider, nathan barley, scrubs, Funhouse, Wizadora, ZZZZAP!,the simpsons,south park,HEROES!

I quite enjoyed the Da Vinci code. Gentlemen and Players, 1984, Little Women, Case Histories. I'm trying to get my hands on a copy of "PLEASE KILL ME" but I am skint at the moment so it'll have to wait.footnote- I now am reading PLEASE KILL ME- fucking amazing book.footnote2- I have been reading PLEASE KILL ME for like 4 years.
If we're talking superheroes then I like Hong Kong Phooey! He was amazing, and he had that little car! But normal heroes... i don't really have one.. they keep on changing with my goals in life!
