So, in honour of ANZAC day and all... I am posting memes.
Not exactly the deepest way to remember things, really. I am rather shallow here, aren't I?
Still... memes for your enjoyment.
Firstly, gacked from![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
misscam:
The interview meme:
01- Leave me a comment saying, "Interview me."
02- I will respond by asking you five questions of a very intimate and creepily personal nature. Or not so creepy/personal.
03- You will update your LJ with the answers to the questions.
04- You will include this explanation and an offer to interview someone else in the post.
05- When others comment asking to be interviewed, you will ask them five questions
1. Aside from the Doctor, what's the one role you'd die to see Tennant in?
God, that's a tricky one. There are just so many things I could see him doing, really, and it's not as if I am a big drama expert, so I can't come up with those interesting and slightly unusual ones like Blackpool that he did so well.
That said, a while back I read on someone's LJ suggesting he'd be great as Crowley in a Good Omens film/TV movie. That'd be awesome - can't you just see him in the sunglasses and black and snarkiness?
2. Dream episode of Doctor Who?
Are you trying to kill me with hard questions? The thing is, a lot of the things that I would really love to see being done seem to be on the books for this season - meeting up with an old companion (School Reunion, duh), the rumours about an episode showing an outside POV of the Doctor's adventures, and how they effect the ordinary people...
But at the moment, I'm just looking forward to the rest of the season, as well as hoping for something character heavy for Tennant to show off just how good he is. Though with the whole hubris consequences thing, this looks like it just might happen too...
3. If you could change one thing about Australia, what would it be?
Get rid off Howard, and do something about the bloody bigotry in certain elements of the government. Try and get away from the minion-ness we have for the US right now. Possibly have another go at that vote to become a republic. (Dude, the royals are werewolves, do we really want them any more?)My whole vaguely republican stance makes my "Republicans for Voldemort t-shirt oh that muc more hilarious
4. Why do Americans drink Foster's?
Fucked if I know.
5. If Ten had a little name for his tongue, what would it be?
Ten... tongue... *swoons*
Sorry, there was a question there?
*grins* Simmons, then.
And another meme, gacked frommisscam and lotus79:
The first 10 people to comment on this post get to request a drabble from you. In return, they have to post this in their journal and write a drabble for you. Post all fandoms you're willing to write for. (this is optional; you don't HAVE to do it in return, but it would be pretty spiffy if you did)
Your friends can pick a relationship, a story arc, a missing scene, or pretty much anything they want. They comment with what they want, and you write drabbles and post it in your LiveJournal.
Fandoms I can do: (New) Doctor Who, obviously. Erm, Harry Potter. Possibly Firefly if the prompts are tempting enough.
Also, I am not limiting to drabbles. If I like the prompt, you might get longer pieces.
And I may take quite some time with some of these.

Actually, no, I can't. Crowley, in my mind, tends to be American. Or Neil Gaiman. And much more laid back and casual than I can ever imagine DT, with his intense acting style, to be. (Besides, the sunglasses would hide his eyes...) And he's not quite right for Aziraphale either.
If he has to play a GO character, then I'd probably pick Newt.
I've seen suggestions for DT as Teatime (from the Discworld novel Hogfather). That could work. Or the Oh God of Hangovers from the same novel.
Hmmm. Another possibility from the Discworld might be (Mustrum) Ridcully. DT's too young and too slender, but I think he might fit the *character* pretty well.

And curse you, but now I am going through every single Discworld character in my head, and imagining how Tennant would play them. It is most bizarre.

What would you think about him playing Moist von Lipwig?
(What about CE for Vimes?)

And I am torn on the CE as Vimes thing - he has the right sort of personality and all, but he doesn't really look like my mental image. I mean, he'd do a damn goood job of it, and I am sure he'd get the personality right, but I just can't see it, physically.
