Two more knit daleks

[charloween]

Dalek-in-progress photos after the cut:











The red-and-black one is for firstgold. She picked those colours months ago, and we both thought, "Well, they had red-and-black daleks back in the early 70s, why not. Kooky, but fun." Then I saw some of the promo pics for the end of this current season and started to laugh. We are so good.

In that last photo, I'm making the "YES OKAY I SMILE FOR PICTURE FINE TAKE THE DAMN PICTURE" face. But I include it to give you an idea of the scale of these cute little beasties. This makes 5 I've knitted. I've promised one more to Teagan and then I think I'll take another year break before I do any more.

BILLY! *huggles* I loff him. A lot. He's got that little bit of chubby face-ness going and the curly hair...so cute! But he also has personality, and balls for being the Presidential Aide, even though he has no idea about teh wimminz.

Oh and hey-Zarek? The ORIGINAL Apollo from BSG. Cool, huh? As soon as I realised this, he suddenly looked a lot more 70s to me.

And yeah, Apollo is a pretty well-developed young man character, and in some episodes you will just squee with love for him because of his awesomeness, but others, you will just look at him and swoon a little while trying to focus on what he is saying.

:D Got any non-spoilery theories as to what will happen tomorrow night?

I think Billy wins for best kinda-background character. He's such a luffable guy. With his cheap shirts and bad ties. *siiiigh*

Ha! He does look 70s. Though Adama's flashback facial hair (and the wigs!) were woah scary. Apparently the 70s happened in that timeline/universe, too. Poor timeline/universe.

There are for sure some times where you don't hear anything that Apollo says. I was telling a friend about the show and ended up just talking about him and his pretty pretty face.

I... have no theories. I'm three episodes behind at this point, so in my knowledge of the show they've just left the library. But it's been a whole season and no daleks have shown up yet. Therefore: daleks. The bitchy part of my mind is expecting Rose to be selfish and break the universe. With daleks. Then the Doctor will forget whatever lessons he's learned in the past two years and regress. Or something better could happen. Jack could grow some depth? Rose could not break the universe? Mostly I want to see Mickey and Jackie again. Argh when will the work day be over so I can go watch episodes?

Hey, don't hate on the Adamastache. (but yeah, the first time I saw it, I totally screamed. In amazement? Disgust? We shall never know...)

YOU'RE THREE EPISODES BEHIND?!?! HOW?!

And when can I come over and stealborrow your X Files DVDs?

It's hard to hate on the Adamastache because there's so much there to love. Truly.

Because... I've been working? And um... watching BSG?

You can come over any old time. I get home from work around 6, so "any old time" would be "after 6" on weekdays. This weekend I'm here tomorrow morning and then gone on Sunday.

Ok. I'm coming over today. Like, now. Is this ok? I will await confirmation as my phone has no minutes.

And ok, I'll give you the excuse of watching BSG, because it is epically amazing, but work? Come on Charlotte-you can do better then that! ; )

Hee - sure, is fine, is fine. Come on by!

I've watched "Midnight" and "Turn Left" now, and have to decide if I want to do a third DW now or take a break for another variety of killer robot.
