Hey, what do you know, I was right! Watching "The Rise of the Cybermen" again last night, I kept trying to figure out where I'd seen the guy playing Lumic before. He's Barty Crouch Sr from Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. Checked it out with the IMDB, and, yes, he surely is. He and David Tennant are fated to be forever on opposite sides of good and evil (and general attractiveness, too, wooo, I guess Barty Jr. got his looks from his poor mother...). Go me and my mad ability to recognize people in stuff. It's really distracting, though, since British stuff is terribly incestuous--I think they have a pool of about a hundred people they recycle through film and TV, and that's it. There are bit players, so maybe it's like 200, but really, this is ridiculous. I guess, with British stock, there's only so much hot to go around. Gotta keep the good-looking ones front and center (not that I'm complaining about that, mind).
( Speaking of Doctor Who, though... )
I woke up at 7:15 this morning wide awake. I should have gotten up and packed. For some reason, I got up way early, kept waking and going back to sleep, then got blasted out of bed by my alarm. My alarm has no happy medium setting on volume. Turn the dial just slightly and it goes from quiet to startlingly loud. And now it's not automatically finding the time, which is irksome, as I've gotten quite lazy enjoying that feature. I unplugged it in the hopes that it will find the right time next time I plug it in. It would do this right before I'm going on vacation. I need that frakkin' alarm. I'll have to set the one on my phone just to be sure.
