Hey Quaggy. I'm glad you posted this. Love the name Miss Mire :-)
It's funny that those of us who love the show so much were determined not to watch in the beginning. I'd vaguely heard before I moved to england but I thought it sounded awful. Really, I shouldn't listen to myself.
It's also interesting hearing about how people found TWoP. Because it really changes the way you watch TV. But I guess that probably breaches the 'don't talk about the boards on the boards' rule so I won't bring it up on keytus. See you 'round *waves*
