The Last Van Helsing, anyone?
Ross Jenkins Christian Cooke is signing at the London Film and Comic Con today. How much do I want to be there right now? I'm ridiculiously jealous of everyone who gets to see him all up close and personal*! XD
Wilst checking out the 'info' section Showmaster put up for him, I discovered that he's filming a new show for ITV called "The Last Van Helsing", in which Christian plays the lead character 'Luke'. Upon further detective work I managed to find this wee blurb of the mini-series:
"“In-humans” - supernatural entities with freakish powers - are on the move and the only one who can stand in their way is Luke Forsythe. Luke is a normal, everyday seventeen-year-old Londoner; until one night he wakes up to find a mysterious stranger raiding his fridge.
Luke is the direct descendant of Abraham Van Helsing, legendary 'smiter', and the inspiration behind the Dracula story. As his heir, Luke plays a key part in the never-ending struggle between the two species. As the world faces a fresh, onslaught Luke must confront his legacy and take his place as a crucial weapon in the coldest of cold wars."
The show apparently consists of 6x60minute episodes and is due to be released at some point this year. Exciting, ys? ...think they can squeeze in a reason for him to don that lush red UNIT cap again? tehehe.

*yes, that includes you, Denise, darling! But I love you hard for promising to take lots of pretty pictures for my oogling needs! I hope you enjoy the day, and promise your (alas, already belated) birthday fic will be the hawtest, smuttiest piece of fic you ever did read when I eventually finish it tonight XD

{ Sticks and Stones }
So I'ma scrolling through the flist and spot this request on one of the communities:
"Does anyone know of any post cyberwoman rape fics(Janto obviously)" [source]
And I'm thinking to myself, 'ooo post-cyberwoman fic!' And click to see what's being linked. For some reason I decided to re-read the actual request and upon realisation, took a moment to blink and was all 'Oooooh!'. Not that that put me off XD but it really surprised me that even though we all know themes like this are read and written all the time, I hadn't really expected to find someone *asking* for it, you know? Which of course sounds rather silly now that I think about it, but well!
That said, I was even more surprised to find "Sinnerman*" linked in reply! ...is it terribly horrible of me to feel so jubilant over that? I do have a rather large soft spot for all my "darker" pieces of fiction.
*[Sinnerman | Jack/Ianto | R/18-Rated | Dubious Consent & Violence] Though not technically a rape-fic, it is somewhat bordeline on the whole consent thing, in that the reader is never entirely sure whether Ianto truly wants it or not. In all honestly I'm not sure, even having written it, whether Ianto himself knew whether he wanted it or not at the time. methinks he doth protest too much, and all. Also, it's not exactly a post Cyberwoman fic. It certainly has some unspoken conotations that could relate it to Ianto's actions in that episode, but I never actually did give a reason for the sudden atmosphere and Jack and Ianto needing to have their, er, confrontation. Hmmm. Interesting how the mind works, sometimes.

House/Numb3rs, anyone?
Has anyone seen the House/Numb3rs crossover advert they've been showing on the FiveUS channel? I've been trying to find it everywhere but clearly I fail because I cannot find so much as a sniff of it. And it was so brilliantly done too! It makes me wanna properly watch Numb3rs as opposed to just channel-flicking past it XD
edt: I've managed to find this 'mini' version:
...but am still looking out for the full one, if anybody'd like to point fingers? Also, whilst we're on the subject of pointing fingers, anyone know where one can, ahem, watch Numb3rs?

{ he comes to you in dreams of darkness }
So a little birdy nudged me along to a certain ![[info]](http://p-stat.livejournal.com/img/community.gif)
dwtwslashawardscommunity where I've apparently had one of my fics nominated!
A little searching and lo and behold, the nominated fic can be found under "Section Three: Best Pairing in a Fic" and in the subcategory "Best Other Torchwood Male/Male Fic (R-NC17)". Which fic was nominated, you ask? Why, only my beloved "Dreams of Darkness" featuring thecreepy lush pairing of Bilis Manger/Ianto Jones! (R-Rated, and please read the warnings first!)
Of course I got really giddy about this, it's wonderful to have one of my more 'unique' pieces appreciated enough to be nominated. I'm not sure of my chances of winning said category as I'm up against a two other fics/pairings I've yet to read, but why don't ya'll toddle on over and check things out? Maybe place a vote or two? ::sly smile::
Also, it wasn't anyone on my flist who nominated it, was it??

{ an extremely dashing, clever gentleman }
Just how much do you want to smish James Moran right now? X)
"Also, the new issue of Torchwood magazine is out, which has some interesting news about Series 3. Specifically, one of the writers involved, a handsome, talented young fellow called... oh, how embarrassing! It's me! Ask me no questions, I'll tell you no lies - you know the drill, I can't talk plot details or anything like that. However, if you want some spillage, I am now able to reveal that I know who did the Captain's Blogs on the BBC America site: it was an extremely dashing, clever gentleman called... oh blimey, how embarrassing! It's me again! Er, yes, it was. Sorry, I pretended not to know because I had to keep quiet. Now that I've come clean, I feel so much better. I hereby claim the sweets and cash you all promised to the person who did them." [ James Moran @ blogger ]
XD XD XD
I hope it's safe to assume that our beloved Jack/Ianto shall live on for a while longer with writers like him on board!

Someone drabble me something so that when I wake up tomorrow I'll be left wearing the goofiest little smile for the rest of the day? Pwetty pwease? I mean I swear there was a line about masterbating in there, how much easier could it be!?

That Torchwood Series Two Boxset
Beloved flist, as you may well know the Torchwood Series Two boxset was released today! I'm sure most of you are thinking along the lines of "YAY DVDS!!!" but to be honest? They're really nothing to get excited about. In fact, they're actually pretty damn depressing.
Sure we get all those lush episodes, the mini-declassifieds (why not just the fullblown versions!?) some deleted scenes, some outtakes and one featurette on the "many deaths of Captain Jack", but that's it.
We get no commentaties (which we knew about but still count), no blooper real or video diaries or episode guides and certainly nowhere near the 14featurettes we got with the last Series! And damnit but I wanted my minute long Jack/Ianto snog. Why have they deprived me this!? This one scene that could have redeemed their whole goddamned boxset!? Grr. They get one- ONE- bonus point for this deleted scene here:
Deleted Scene: From Meat: Jack/Ianto
...are we finished grinning like loons and contemplating just what Jack was doing with his hand? ::waggles eyebrows::
No?
How about now?
Good. Now that you've seen that scene, I recommend you fav it, download the series via some supa-seekrit and sneaky means and voilla! You've saved yourself £30-something quid you can spend in the pub instead, drowning your sorrows and bemoaning the complete and utter fail that is the boxset. Even the menu screen pales in comparison to the snazz we got with the Series One set. B'zah!? Just what is all that about?? Ugh. Trust me guys, a hangover will be more exciting that this boxset is.
YOU FAIL DVD MAKERS! FAIL. ::pouty face::
edt: and no,![[info]](http://p-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif)
joulez217, the fact that the box is red does not in anyway make up for its complete and utter fail XD
