Why didn't I watch the first series?
Photobucket

When Life on Mars was shown on TV here, I somehow wasn't interested (probably because I thought it was some kind of fantasy series), but when the second series started some weeks ago, I gave it a try and was instantly hooked. That 70s look, Gene Hunt's politically incorrect behaviour and of course John Simm as Sam Tyler, what's not to like? Now I could kick myself for not having watched the first series.

I have a question for the Britons on my f-list: What does Gene Hunt say in the sound file that's called If you don't answer this phone call??

I understand "If you don't answer this call I'm going to come over to your house (?) and stamp on all your ... (?), got it?" but apart from the fact that I can't make out that one word at all, I'm not entirely sure this is correct in the first place.

Oh, thank you! I'd never have figured out that it's toys.

I had to listen a couple of times.

Can you tell whether Glenister does a good job with the Mancunian accent? Or would every Mancunian roll his eyes?

No idea. I don't know any Mancunians. He sounds about right but that's all I could say.

No problem. If I'm honest I couldn't answer a question about German accents either. :)

I never watched this series. Didn't appeal to MPH so although he's not bossy about watching stuff I knew he's just mutter and spoil it if I had decided to watch it.

Spoil it? That's not very nice of him. ;)

Well not deliberately but if he's not interested in something then he just sort of busies about or makes asides.

Well, there have to be at least some advantages if one is living on one's own. ;)
