Lazy Evenings

Saturday seems to have become an increasingly lazy day in our house - although in fairness, last Saturday we were in Barcelona and got up at the crack of dawn to achieve that, so I'm not quite sure how valid that point is.

However, besides that we have spent a large amount of time most Saturday evenings watching various TV shows. There was Doctor Who - which obviously was the highlight of the evening, and at the moment now that's on mid-series break, it's time for Merlin to fill the gap. Since seeing an episode being filmed, we now also watch Comedy World Cup, I'll also try and watch The Thick Of It, and depending on the week and whether that day's games were any good, Match of the Day would also feature in the list.

Today followed that theme - although there was no Match of the Day this week due to international break - and overall, it was fairly lazy. I was almost impressed with Merlin this week for managing to kill off a main character in only the second episode (and that the second half of a two-parter). It wouldn't have just been a main character but the main villain as well, so a little surprising. Except that when you thought she was dead, at the end of the episode you see Morgana walking across the wastes with her pet dragon trailing in her wake - a little disappointing considering how that may have worked out much more interestingly.
