Strike Back is everywhere

-

What a brilliant day! First of all, the sun's shining and it's spring and that's great. Secondly, it started out well on the train: didn't have time to collect my ticket from the machine, but the conductor didn't force me to pay for a new one - instead I could pick it up from the train station where I got off.

Thirdly, and more importantly: Walking from the train station to work, I came across this big billboard on the side of the road, so I just had to stop and take a picture. :D Strike Back is everywhere and it's only eight days to go!

(And this is the second attempt at trying to submit blog posts by email.)

    I didn't run over and hug it, no... I would've had to climb a fence and I'd only get to hug the pillar it was on, and it doesn't look quite as inviting to hug as the man himself. ;)

    Really happily surprised to find a huge picture of RA on the way to work. If I hadn't taken the train yesterday, I wouldn't know it was there, because the other side of the billboard (facing the way I normally come in) is an HSBC mortgage ad or something like that. So only coming FROM town going out you could see RA. I was in a pretty good mood as it was (and listening to a Jane Eyre radio adaptation while walking) but that put a huge smile on my face.

    Shame I can't see it from my desk. But then again, maybe I wouldn't get as much work done, eh? ;)

    Also figured out what I was doing wrong with submitting by email - I had sent it to blogspot.com instead of blogger.com - d'oh.

    OMG!I would have squeeeled on the spot! or at least internally. I'm so envious of you all in the UK. My sister visited and saw the trailer in the hotel lobby and let out a scream! Don't know what I'll do if no-one uploads it and I'll have to wait for the dvd...

I thought there should be a list like this. Maybe there already is, I've just not seen it yet. It's not a massive list by the time of posting this (25 points), but I'm hoping you'll help me come up with more so that one day it will be. :) Last updated: 14 June 2012, the list so far: You know you're a Richard Armitage fan when ...

Richard Armitage will never be himself on TV

One of the interesting comments Richard Armitage was when an interviewer asked him, because he's a great dancer, is if we'd ever see him on something like Strictly Come Dancing . His response was that we'd never get to see Richard Armitage as Richard Armitage on TV. Basically, he's not the kind of celebrity to show up as soon as someone waves an invite to a reality TV show. Richard Armitage as himself. On telly. But not in a reality show. Things that make me love and respect the man: +1! Before I read that interview, I was thinking about him on Strictly , and then started to think of a host of other reality TV shows and whether or not he would be a suitable candidate. This is what I came up with ... Top Gear What it is: This is a car show, or ... a comedy show with cars in, depending on how you look at it. Rupert Penry-Jones and Peter Firth came on it to promote series 7 (?) of Spooks , so why not Richard Armitage? He does drive a car, after all ... Why ...

And you call yourself a Richard Armitage fan?

It's been just about a year since I wrote that post about IF Richard Armitage was gay, what's it got to do with us ? This has since become the most read and the most commented post on this blog, for better or for worse. Hotly debated issue, apparently. The thing that strikes me is how people look upon the subject. A lot of comments were very supportive, saying if he was gay, it might spoil the illusion somewhat, but all in all, if that's who he is, then that's who he is. Others claimed to have evidence of him being a homosexual, but from what I gather, it's really only based on hearsay, rumourmongering and/or "gut feelings". Personally, I'd be interested to hear a gay man's views on this. Why? Because everyone in the debate is female, and the vast majority, if not all, are straight. Ever heard the term "gaydar"? Whose gaydar is more likely to be accurate - a straight female's or a homosexual male's? I know who I'd vote for...
