1. Life on the Murder Scene, because, well, MCR! I can't survive without my regular fix. The video diary is what changed me from casual fan to head-over-heels crazy fangirl, and the other disc has the videos and "making of"s, so yes, it's an absolute must.
2. The English Patient. Still my favourite film of all time.
3. Slings & Arrows, all 3 seasons.
4. Doctor Who, series 1. Because I am spellbound by Christopher Eccleston as Nine and because the quality of the whole 13-episode run was just amazing.
5. Master and Commander, for its very fine acting by Russell Crowe and Paul Bettany, and for Peter Weir's compelling and lovingly detailed creation on screen of Aubrey and Maturin's world.
But I'm REALLY not satisfied with this list because it leaves out Due South, and the Lord of the Rings movies, and a host of other stuff that I love. So no desert islands for me, not even magical ones, thank you very much. I'll be perfectly happy sitting right here, marooned in my own living room with not a palm tree in sight.

2) What's your favourite beach?
3) What's your favourite place?
4) What clothes are people wearing right now? i.e. what do I need to pack? Is it hot even at night? Do people dress formally or casually? Do I need to be appropriate if we visit a church?
5) Are some beaches pebbly or stone, and should we bring flipflops or similar to walk on them?
6) Can you buy English books?
7) What's a great thing to eat that you would recommend??
Thank you!!! ;-)
