I went for a job interview in Cardiff Bay once and the building was so boat-themed I think I actually got seasick in the waiting room. I bet when they were building it all, Terry Gilliam was giggling manically to himself without knowing why.

She said that one of her friends was looking out the window the other day and said "Oh they're filming Dr Who." "How do you know?" She asks. "Er. The blue box." She actually lives in the same apartment block as John and Freema. This guy I know stumbled onto the set of Torchwood one night. He's a sexual health promotion worker and he was out on patrol in the park, walked through a hedge and found himself in front of cameras and lights. I'm told they put a line about it in the show, but I don't know. I was at dinner tonight with this woman who lives in Cardiff Bay.

I make a good start and watch the first few episodes but then I lose it. I just don't quite get the Captain Jack thing. It if quite bizarre watching them trying to make Cardiff look cool though.
