TV

Three hours of fantastic HD entertainment this evening, courtesy of the BBC...

Doctor Who [new]
4x16 The Waters of Mars [special]
An absolutely excellent episode -- scary, funny, surprising, heartbreaking... the adjectives could go on. If DWM had waited to do The Mighty 201, I'm sure this would've come right near the top. (And if it hadn't, there'd be something terribly wrong with the world. Or Doctor Who fans, anyway.)
Only bad thing... where was the next episode's title?! (The End of Time is the next-but-one. Unless reports which say as much have been wrong?)
[Watch it (again) on iPlayer.]

Doctor Who Confidential
4x17 Is There Life on Mars?
Now in HD! Yay! (Also, the first Confidential I've watched in a bloody long time.)
[Watch it (again) on iPlayer.]

Top Gear
14x01 Episode 1
Now in HD! Yay!
[Watch it (again) on iPlayer.]

And in regular old SD...

Charley Boorman: By Any Means - Sydney to Tokyo
Part 5 (of 6)
Part 6 (of 6)
Hurrah, got to the end! As did Charley, of course.
