Pros for me and thee...
Sunday, 22 February 2015 10:13 pmHow very exciting - I've finally got somewhere to hang my Ladder of Swords poster! Yes, apparently I am still twelve - well for now at least, because I do like Ladder of Swords. *g* I "won" it in a Pros auction years ago, and have never been able to have it out, cos landlady didn't like things on the walls.
Something else I came across in my storage, was my own original Pros novelisations - complete with the contact (aka sticky-backed plastic) I covered them with (I was 14 or so at the time *g*) to keep them safe. *g*Which means that I have an almost-complete-set to give away (not my original ones! These are un-contacted) - free to anyone who wants to pay postage for them (all together or separately, I don't mind). 
9, 12 and 14 are the missing ones. They're all in perfectly good nick, just a bit faded and sun-worn when they were passed on to me. Drop me an email if you'd like one/some/all - slanted light at g mail dotcom...
Third happy Pros-y thing? Yes - three! I finally gave in and bought myself the new bluray boxsets, and I completely forgot that they came with the Viewing Notes (all 179 pages of them *g*). There's not only various stories from the filming, and different interviews and so on, there's also bits of changed dialogue, and a short story that Wild Justice was apparently based on. Lots of reading to come! But for now, here's a missing/changed scene from Hunter/Hunted (if you've not already read your own copy of the book... *g*).
The following morning at Doyle's, Doyle told Bodie that for breakfast he could have 'A spot of natural yoghurt and a couple of slices of wholemeal bread'; when Kathie entered she immediately commented that something was burning, and Bodie dashed for the grill to rescue the burning toast, as Doyle noted 'That was the last of the bread'. Then Kathie offers to cook them something, which is really neither here nor there, because I want to know what was happening to distract them between Doyle offering Bodie the bread, and suddenly there being toast burning... *g* I can guess... *vbg*
Oh, there's bits about their famous ad libs too - in In the Public Interest, for instance, I think there'd always been a rumour that Bodie asking Doyle I thought you were from Derby? was an ad lib, but apparently Doyle's First time? I was nearly fifteen! was also an ad lib... *g* Ha, fun, shall have to see what else I can find... *g*
