Hey, I was watching that!

Apparently, although I'm a little late in joining the funeral, BBC4 will not be making any more Dirk Gently. Very disappointed to hear of this.



The show's star Stephen Mangan said on Twitter fairly recently:

It gives me no pleasure whatsoever to report that the BBC have decided not to make any more Dirk Gently.

Whose gaydar is more likely to be accurate - a straight female's or a homosexual male's? I know who I'd vote for...

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 ...
