This was the Kidnapped Christmas - my family regards my Kidnapped obsession as marginally more respectable than my love for The Man from UNCLE or Peter Wimsey, so they raised no eyebrows when I ordered myself the Peter Finch and Iain Glenn versions on DVD, although my eldest daughter did ask "Why did you get me this?" when I gave her the graphic novel. I also got Catriona in paperback - I'm older and more patient now than when I first tried to read it, and believe I have a good chance of getting through all of it, instead of just skipping directly to the parts with Alan Breck.

Oh Lord. I gave Wolfgang Hustle on DVD for Christmas. Today we watched the first two episodes, and out of the blue I find myself with a shiny new fannish obsession. How could it have taken me so long to discover something so clever, so witty, and so brilliantly acted? I am completely in love. But we are trying to ration ourselves, because there are so very few episodes. Sob!
