What I'm watching
The Apprentice:
This hilarious business competition has bought me a lot of laughs. The quote of the week this episode (10), was from Alan Sugar when he was trying to curb Stewart's 'enthusiasm':
"a fly's got enthusiasm but that doesn't stop him head-butting a window!"Apart from not really making any sense, this just simply made me laugh.
But the best this series came from Alex: "If I was an apple-pie, the apples inside would be orange". Classic!!

Oh Austen...
So I am a Pride and Prejudice fan. Whether you agree with me or not, it cannot be mistaken that Austen's words are well loved:
"He's a fine as gentleman as I ever saw. He simpers and smirks and makes love to us all."
"I shouldn't know your locket if I saw it- I care nothing for such baubles."
"I think you are in very great danger of making him as much in love with you as ever."
"How long have you been in love with him?'. 'I believe I must date it from when I first saw his beautiful grounds at Pemberley!"
"My feelings are...I am ashamed to remember what I said then...In fact they are quite the opposite".
"...such I might have been if it were not for you. Dearest loveliest Elizabeth."
Also I do not see why we can't enjoy both film and BBC productions, as well as the novel. :)
