Catherine Tate sighting.

[Cutter John]

Poor Cathy. Doing bit parts in crappy Jack Black movies now. Gullivers Travels adaptation. Really?

Ah well. Its a speaking part in a big-budget Hollywood production. So hopefully the money was good.

Do yourself a favor though and fast forward to 1:52 or so to catch her 'blink or you'll miss it' shot.

A role for which I suspect she got paid more than a whole season of Doctor Who. People have mortgages to paid, what do you expect them to do? eat good reviews of worthy pieces that nobody goes to see?

It's interesting to note that Annettee Badland who was Margaret Slitheen played Ned Beatty's wife in the Hallmark version of the story.

 

[auntiehill]

Well, I'm glad she's getting work. Will I see this? Probably not.

 

[Mr. Adventure]

Am I bovvered by this news, no! (Sorry, I've never even heard her say that but I've seen it so much I couldn't resist.)

Hopefully, she'll find something good, I thought her character really got shafted on Who.

Going on a tangent, I thought it was funny to see her as Griselda Fishfinger in Jabberwocky.

[Tennant]What? What?! WHAT?![/Tennant]

 

[Mr. Adventure]

^^ I should say the ultimate fate of her character sucked at least.

Not unhappy that she's getting work. But that its probably just a tiny bit part with three lines.

 

[Sci]

Yeah, I'm sure the host of The Catherine Tate Show, who's performed skits with the Prime Minister for the Queen herself, is really hurting for work. And money.

Ah. Yes. Thought you mean they were cruel to Ms Tate.

Expenditure generally raises with income. Also you have no idea how long your 'busy' patch will last, make hay while the sun shines and all that.

Too good for her, that's what I say.

Thank you Mr Sunshine.

As a wise man once said,

"It is more than you've ever accomplished.

Or ever shall."

You can't possibly know that. You're just trying to be insulting.

 

[The Mirrorball Man]

You can't possibly know that. You're just trying to be insulting.

Let's grow up, shall we? Abuse is never justified but this cry wolf tactic of yours has now run its course.

 

[Bones2]

Yeah, but the idea behind crying wolf is that there are no wolves. Whereas there very much are wolves this time. And every time I point it out. I used to let personal attacks slide all the time, but that led to the perpetuation of negative ideas about me. Hence why I do my best to nip it in the bud where I can now. It's a shame other people can't seem to discuss differing opinions on a TV show without resorting to personal attacks, but evil prevails where good people do nothing.

 

[Starkers]

but evil prevails where good people do nothing.

Seriously you're not Ghandi, or on a relief ship heading for Gaza, or a British soldier dodging bullets so try not to put yourself on the moral highground here (especially not when it's apparently ok to say nasty and spiteful things about Catherine Tate/RTD etc. You don't like them fine, but there's no need to be so petty about it)

That was meant to be slightly melodramatic for slight comic effect, but my point still stands.

...so try not to put yourself on the moral highground here (especially not when it's apparently ok to say nasty and spiteful things about Catherine Tate/RTD etc. You don't like them fine, but there's no need to be so petty about it)

I think you'll find my criticisms of them are of their work and not their character. Again, please learn the diffference.

Though I notice you only quoted the last line of my post. Should I take it that you agree with the rest?

 

[Winterwind]

Poor Catherine indeed. My sympathies go out to anyone in a Jack Black movie.
