TV

A Midsummer Night's Dream
I can't believe it's taken me 10 years to get round to watching this. That's insane. And it's really good, too! I was thinking about logging it as a film, because it is a "TV movie", but it also feels very 'TV'. Good, but TV-ish.

Russell T Davies Remembers... A Midsummer Night's Dream
A short featurette-length piece of RTD reflecting on the production — even this was three years ago!

Collection Count

Collection Count tracks my DVD/Blu-ray collection via a number of statistics every week.

It's patchy whether new releases turn up on the Saturday before or not anymore — this week, not. So really it's just the monthly running time update that's new here.

Number of titles in collection: 3,695 [no change]
Of which DVDs: 965 [no change]
Of which Blu-rays: 2,730 [no change]
— of which Ultra HD Blu-rays: 528 [no change]

Number of discs in collection: 8,862 [no change]
Number of films: 4,749 [no change]
Number of additional cuts: 494 [no change]
Number of TV episodes: 10,134 [no change]
Number of short films: 1,296 [no change]

Total running time of collection (approx.):
618 days, 6 hours, and 12 minutes.
(Up 22 hours and 47 minutes from last month.)

See you next week, faithful reader.
