I am not often shocked speechless, but every now and then it still happens.

Just finished watching the BBC mini-series Casanova that was made in 2005. Starring Peter O'Toole (God love the man), David Tennant, the one who played Briseis in Troy, and the one who played Kate in A Knight's Tale.

Holy God. And I don't say that very often, but I mean it this time. I LOVE PETER O'TOOLE. I seriously cried at the end when his character (old Casanova) dies. And it was bloody brilliant, the whole thing (even the parts that made my not-even-close-to-innocent-mind gasp in shock).

And it was written by Russell T. Davies, which is an amusment factor of about eleven because young Casanova (David) TALKS like the Doctor half the time. And I don't think Russell knows how to write anything else, but God bless the man anyways.

It's all (three episodes) available on YouTube (which I love again, by the way) in pretty good quality. I laughed, I cried, I gasped, I loved. No necessarily in that order.

Go watch. Unless you still believe you're innocent, and then maybe you should skip it.
