Okay, kids. Bear with me while getting off my damn lawn.

My Flist and Live Feed are all abomb with something Whoish (funny, you don't look- oh, nevermind) that seemingly happened last night.

WANT.

BBC America itself too busy with its marathons of How Clean Is Your House and Antiques Roadshow, whilst its website promises something called The Waters of Mars on December Freakin 19th.

Just as well, since I haven't got the channel now anyway, but I will when Dexter ends and I dump SHO.

Meanwhile, the Real Beeb has a lovely looking episode player for what clearly aired last night, but all it says, in that eminently British way, is:

Our servers are too busy. Please try again later.



Which could mean most of the known universe is trying to watch once they woke up to spoilers on their blogrolls, or simply that Her Majesty still doesn't like us for revolting and such. (Yes, we were revolting for those eight years just then, but I thought we fixed that.)

So please. Explain, to a guy who doesn't know a torrent from a Tardis: how do I get this stuff?

Really. Otherwise, I'm reduced to watching shite like this (thanks sooo much, Terri):



(And before you ask, or rather after you curl up in horror and THEN ask? The guy's real. )

Off to fix a cat.

You know, as a yoga teacher and one who's taught kids before, I just LOVE it when some whack-job puts this kind of shit out there. We're already thought of as crunchy hippie weirdos most of the time, so this makes my job sooooo much easier! :(

I just knew you'd be so pleased.

Rather, I used the phrase "rolling over in her lotus position" to predict your reaction to the friend who exposed me to it.

The Beeb have what's called iPlayer. What has probably happened is that everyone who couldn't watch last night is now trying all at once. You may not be able to watch it anyway, as it's supposed to be UK only. So, I think you might have to Torrent it, or try youtube. :(

That being said; Waters of Mars is series 4, so you might want to wait until you've caught up a bit more, though I think you'd be able to get most of what's going on.

What thanatos said, iplayer's only available for UK viewers.

Some of us may have acquired it by other means, however; let me know if you still need it.

What? I make people lotus roll? Coolness!

Seriously, I highly respect anyone who has the disicpline to do yoga. And I don't think for one minute that this guy is indicative of all yoga instructors. It was merely the WEIRDNESS of it that had me transfixed. It would have been JUST as weird had he been teaching auto repair. Perhaps weirder.
