14:02:06 Mother_Of_Cypher Hellooo!!
14:02:25 Mother_Of_Cypher Well, aren't you going to give your old mother a kiss?
14:02:35 Mother_Of_Cypher I suppose not.
14:03:45 Mother_Of_Cypher I see you've tidied up. How nice. Except for that tumbleweed in the corner. Didn't I tell you, if you don't clean up properly, you catch germs.
14:03:54 Mother_Of_Cypher Maybe even a virus.
14:04:33 Mother_Of_Cypher You certainly have changed, my little lamb.
14:05:04 Mother_Of_Cypher You used to be so noisy. Never giving us a moment's peace. That's why your sister moved out.
14:06:02 Mother_Of_Cypher You haven't grown much. Have you been eating properly?
14:06:45 Mother_Of_Cypher You need to keep your strength up. The internet's a tiring place. Have a byte to eat whenever you can.
14:07:28 Mother_Of_Cypher Your father sends his regards. He's pleased you finally got a job.
14:08:31 Mother_Of_Cypher Of course, if you decide you want to go into the Forces, like your grandfathers, they could always do with more Tumbleweed Hunters. I hear it's getting to be quite a problem in some places.
14:08:52 Mother_Of_Cypher No? Well, alright, dear. You can always change your mind.
14:10:08 Mother_Of_Cypher I assume you're having some friends over later. Remember to show some manners. And don't let just anyone in.
14:10:36 Mother_Of_Cypher You really have changed, son. You're ever so quiet. I think I'll catch the early bus home.
14:11:42 Mother_Of_Cypher If you need anything, let me know. Oh, and I hope you haven't been logging me. You know how much I hate being logged.
14:12:06 Mother_Of_Cypher Well, goodbye, Cypher. Take care.
14:12:10 Mother_Of_Cypher has left the room
20:17:33 Father_Of_Cypher has joined the room
20:17:42 Father_Of_Cypher Ah, hello sonnyboy
20:18:12 Father_Of_Cypher If you see your mother anywhere, remember to tell me
20:18:55 Father_Of_Cypher Hmm...I guess you're busy
20:19:32 Father_Of_Cypher Watching TV I guess. In my day we only had one channel, and we'd watch it in our best clothes while squinting at the screen
20:20:12 Father_Of_Cypher And these 'Pong' games you play nowadays never existed
20:20:41 Father_Of_Cypher Anyway, if Mother arrives, tell me
20:20:52 Father_Of_Cypher I'm off to work
20:20:59 Father_Of_Cypher See you later son
20:21:02 Father_Of_Cypher has left the room
20:49:42 Malefact has joined the room
21:01:50 Thanatos has joined the room
21:01:59 Malefact HI!
21:02:11 Thanatos Greetings, Malefact.
21:02:19 Malefact How goes it?
21:02:30 Thanatos Well enough.
21:02:39 Malefact Good.
21:02:49 Thanatos And yourself?
21:02:55 Malefact Well enough.
21:03:46 Malefact http://mathworld.wolfram.com/UnsolvedProblems.html
21:03:53 Malefact Fascinating stuff, imo.
21:05:13 Thanatos I'm no mathematician.
21:05:37 Malefact Ah, never mind then.
21:06:05 Thanatos Sorry.
21:06:06 Malefact We could still play a game, though, if you like.
21:06:17 Malefact NP.
21:06:19 Thanatos Such as>
21:06:20 Thanatos ?
21:06:40 Malefact Think of a number with two or more digits (better make it two, to keep it simple).
21:06:56 Thanatos Do I tell you what it is?
21:07:09 Malefact You can if you wish - it doesn't make any difference in this case.
21:07:18 Thanatos OK, done.
21:07:38 Malefact Reverse the digits and add the resulting new number to your original choice.
21:07:43 Billy1987-1994 has joined the room
21:07:47 Billy1987-1994 Hi folks!
21:07:53 Thanatos Greetings, Billy.
21:07:54 Malefact E.g.: 27 becomes 72, and do 27+72.
21:07:54 Malefact Hi!
21:08:05 Thanatos OK, Malefact, done.
21:08:20 Billy1987-1994 So, I think of a 2 digit number, right?
21:08:43 Malefact Hold on a sec, Billy - when Thanatos has finished the game I'll reiterate the rules.
21:08:50 Billy1987-1994 Oh, right
21:08:53 Billy1987-1994 Okies
21:09:10 Malefact Thanatos: repeat the procedure.
21:09:31 Malefact Keep going and eventually you will end up with a palindrome - a number that reads the same forwards and backwards.
21:10:00 Thanatos It happened first time: 71 + 17 = 88
21:10:05 Malefact Bingo. :)
21:10:37 Malefact This works for all numbers... except 196.
21:11:33 Malefact For some reason, the sequence never terminates if 196 is the seed - you just keep getting longer and longer numbers, possibly ad infinitum. Whether it does reach infinity without becoming a palindrome has yet to be proved.
21:11:57 Thanatos I've been going for ages on 46 and 64 and it hasn't happened.
21:12:01 Trance has joined the room
21:12:06 Malefact Hi! :)
21:12:09 Billy1987-1994 Greetings Trance!
21:12:19 Malefact 46 + 64 = 110
21:12:23 Trance Hi! Just wait and I'll change my name to how it should be...
21:12:26 Malefact 110 + 11 = 121
21:12:33 Malefact 121 is a palindrome.
21:12:53 Malefact (110 reversed gives 011, which is just 11)
21:13:04 Trance_Gemini Maths, eh? Not my best subject at school...I only got a grade 5 for it. :-(
21:13:19 Thanatos Oh. What you said suggested that I should just keep adding 64 + 46 + 64 + 46 + 64 etc.
21:13:27 Thanatos Greetings, Trance.
21:13:34 Trance_Gemini Hi everyone :)
21:13:49 Malefact Oh, no.
21:14:08 Malefact TG: We're just doing a maths game.
21:14:19 Trance_Gemini Lol, I'll just watch. :)
21:14:20 Billy1987-1994 Could you tell us the rules, please?
21:14:28 Malefact Billy+TG: Think of a number at least two digits in length (keep it at two to keep it simple).
21:14:38 Billy1987-1994 Right, 36.
21:14:44 Trance_Gemini 12 & 34
21:14:44 Malefact Reverse the digits and add the resulting new number to your original choice.
21:15:04 Malefact TG: You only need one number, e.g. 36.
21:15:14 Trance_Gemini 34 + 43...
21:15:18 Billy1987-1994 63 + 36...
21:15:26 Billy1987-1994 = 99.
21:15:31 Malefact Billy: you get 99 which is a palindrome.
21:15:43 Davius has joined the room
21:15:46 Malefact TG: 34+43 = 77.
21:15:49 Billy1987-1994 Wow, it works!
21:15:50 Malefact Also a palindrome. :)
21:15:51 Trance_Gemini Lol, I got 77.
21:15:51 Malefact Hi!
21:15:52 Davius hi everybody!
21:15:56 Billy1987-1994 Greetings Davius!
21:16:06 Trance_Gemini Hi!
21:16:23 Malefact If you don't get a palindrome, take the resulting number and repeat the procedure on it. Keep going and you will get a palindrome eventually. :)
21:16:38 Malefact (But don't try it on 196, though :D)
21:16:45 Trance_Gemini Does anyone else watch Andromeda in here? I know it's cheesy at times but I unashamedly love it!
21:17:08 Malefact I've never seen it. :(
21:17:21 Billy1987-1994 Nor have I
21:17:37 Trance_Gemini It's on tomorrow, Channel 4. It's a Series 2 episode tho'
21:17:39 Thanatos Never heard of it.
21:17:51 Malefact I'll have to try to catch it.
21:18:14 Trance_Gemini It's another Gene Roddenberry creation, although he was dead before they took the idea of making a series.
21:18:43 Malefact When did he die? Was it 1991?
21:19:00 Trance_Gemini Sometime round then.
21:19:30 Malefact They did a special two-part Next Gen. with Spock in it, dedicated to him.
21:19:45 Trance_Gemini Unification. :)
21:20:01 Malefact Indeed. :)
21:20:27 *Malefact considers a name change...
21:20:53 Trance_Gemini Lol...copycat!
21:21:03 Sleepy_Libra You're one to talk! ;)
21:21:16 Billy1987-1994 You're a Libra too?
21:21:26 Sleepy_Libra I am, yes. October 14th is my birthday.
21:21:35 Trance_Gemini Oh...I get it now - lol!
21:21:43 Sleepy_Libra :)
21:22:12 Sleepy_Libra I'm assuming a late July birthday makes one Gemini?
21:22:22 Thanatos Cancer or Leo, I think.
21:22:25 Trance_Gemini Nope - I'm a Leo. :)
21:22:35 Sleepy_Libra Leo, eh? :)
21:22:36 *Sleepy_Libra roars
21:22:52 Trance_Gemini Hmm, not a confident one tho'
21:23:01 Sleepy_Libra Wait. :)
21:23:04 Trance_Gemini Mind you, I don't believe in horoscopes.
21:23:27 Sleepy_Libra Nor me. I have been wondering about the significance of digital roots, though...
21:23:38 Trance_Gemini What're they?
21:23:51 Sleepy_Libra Take any number and add up all the individual digits...
21:24:05 Sleepy_Libra Take the result of that and do the same until you're left with a one-digit number.
21:24:19 Sleepy_Libra Funny things seem to happen with digital roots of 3 and 9.
21:25:14 Trance_Gemini Hmm...I hadn't heard of those before.
21:25:44 Sleepy_Libra Mathematicians are constantly working on ways of combining numbers to see what patterns lie within. :S
21:26:21 *Sleepy_Libra is in a distinctly mathematical mood tonight, in case anyone hadn't noticed, because he's been working on his Big Maths Project and has been doodling around with some rather profound and exciting stuff.
21:26:32 Billy1987-1994 You mean things like 0 + 0 looking like a pair of eyes?
21:26:44 Sleepy_Libra Hehe, not quite. :)
21:27:03 Trance_Gemini Lol, I think Science Fiction is my best subject.
21:27:30 Sleepy_Libra The two subjects can get on quite well, I think. :)
21:28:03 *Sleepy_Libra has been coming up with interesting theories and hypotheses and finding out that some git already got there first ten or twenty years before him!
21:28:08 Trance_Gemini Yep, 'cept I only concentrate on the science bit.
21:28:31 Trance_Gemini And the adventure bit, of course.
21:28:39 Sleepy_Libra Indeed. :)
21:28:51 Billy1987-1994 Heh, just looking at the logs from earlier. There's a 'Mother_Of_Cypher' and a 'Father_Of_Cypher'
21:28:59 Sleepy_Libra I'm fed up because Sky One showed The Best Of Both Worlds this week and I missed it. :(
21:29:02 Trance_Gemini Lol, when was that?
21:29:08 Sleepy_Libra Oh? :)
21:30:33 Thanatos What's "The Best of Both Worlds"?
21:30:48 Trance_Gemini Star Trek episode(s).
21:31:26 Sleepy_Libra Yes, The Next Generation.
21:31:34 Trance_Gemini End of Star Trek: TNG series 3 and start of series 4 - a two part story.
21:31:51 Sleepy_Libra That particular episode (a two-parter) is commonly regarded as the best Trek episode ever.
21:32:15 Sleepy_Libra (Of any Trek series)
21:32:17 Thanatos I've never watched "Star Trek".
21:32:28 Trance_Gemini You're missing out there!
21:32:48 Sleepy_Libra Indeed.
21:33:28 Trance_Gemini What about Doctor Who, The X-Files, Farscape, Stargate SG-1?
21:33:36 Trance_Gemini I love all of these too.
21:34:19 Thanatos None of them, I'm afraid.
21:34:33 Sleepy_Libra I like The X-Files and I sometimes watch Doctor Who.
21:34:53 Sleepy_Libra I saw it yesterday, in fact, trying to spot John Woodnutt.
21:35:21 Billy1987-1994 Ah! Was it the Zygons episode?
21:35:26 Trance_Gemini I also watch Smallville, Angel and Buffy The Vampire Slayer.
21:35:32 Trance_Gemini I saw him in Zygons.
21:35:46 Billy1987-1994 So did I
21:35:57 Sleepy_Libra Who did he play?
21:36:06 Billy1987-1994 It was a Lord, wasn't it/
21:36:15 Trance_Gemini Yep, a Scottish one.
21:36:24 Sleepy_Libra Was this yesterday evening?
21:36:34 Thanatos has left the room
21:36:53 Davius Doctor Who has always been my favourite sci-fi program :). UK Gold had last weekend dedicated to it for the 40th anniversary
21:36:53 Billy1987-1994 I believe Woodnutt's also in 'Attack of the Killer Shop Dummies' aka Spearhead from Space
21:37:11 Billy1987-1994 ...while the BBC did blogger all?
21:37:34 Sleepy_Libra Well, at least a new series has been officially commissioned.
21:37:49 Sleepy_Libra They will most certainly have a theme night for that when the first new episode is transmitted.
21:37:57 Billy1987-1994 If it ever does arrive
21:38:11 Sleepy_Libra They've commissioned it so it will.
21:38:37 Trance_Gemini Wonder who the new Doctor'll be. It won't be Alan Davies, he hasn't been approached.
21:38:55 Davius apparently they've been thinking of showing repeats from each doctor's era upto the new series, so that should build up some hype for it!
21:39:12 Trance_Gemini Lol, they should get a move on then! :)
21:39:20 Sleepy_Libra Do any of William Hartnell's episodes exist in the archives?
21:39:27 Billy1987-1994 Yeah, several
21:39:31 Davius yep, there are quite a few good ones
21:39:44 Trance_Gemini I haven't seen any of his OR Patrick Troughton's episodes.
21:40:11 Billy1987-1994 They have a few from both Doctors on DVD
21:40:13 Sleepy_Libra I saw some of The Five Doctors on BBC Prime when on holiday earlier this year.
21:41:02 Davius there are very few patrick troughton stories left complete... which is a shame. the cybermen were always my favourite adversary, and they featured in a quite a few of the missing stories :(
21:41:21 Trance_Gemini I've got The Five Doctors on DVD - love it!
21:41:52 *Sleepy_Libra wouldn't mind seeing that again :)
21:41:56 Billy1987-1994 I recall that loads of people wanted to see Tomb of The Cybermen, but when they found it in Hong Kong everyone thought it was rubbish
21:42:04 Billy1987-1994 Not me though, I think it's great
21:42:43 Sleepy_Libra Well, with any luck today's modern technologies will be able to make the new series look slightly better than the old ones. :)
21:42:58 Trance_Gemini I've only seen a clip of that, but I thought it looked scary.
21:43:23 Trance_Gemini So, who do you think would make a great new Doctor?
21:43:41 Davius tomb of the cybermen is a great classic. i managed to get the Invasion on video as well, even though some of the episodes arent there (Nicholas Courtney does some linking narration though)
21:44:04 Sleepy_Libra It would be fascinating to have a female Doctor.
21:44:21 Sleepy_Libra (And I'm not saying that with typical bloke mentality, either!) :)
21:44:50 Billy1987-1994 Everyone has recently been talking about wobbly sets- is it me, or have they nicked this line from Crossroads?
21:44:59 Davius Colin Baker suggested Dawn French would make an ideal female doctor!
21:45:07 Trance_Gemini Lol, I always think the Doctor should be a man - it just seems natural.
21:45:24 Sleepy_Libra I don't think Dawn French has the subtlety necessary.
21:45:29 Trance_Gemini For one thing, the character's always been a man - that's his gender.
21:45:45 Sleepy_Libra TG: Look at Trills, though, from Star Trek.
21:46:12 Trance_Gemini Yep, but they're different, lol!
21:46:19 Sleepy_Libra How? :)
21:46:29 Davius i think Paul McGann should return to the role... the TV movie wasnt brilliant, but he there have been some great eighth doctor audio stories
21:47:09 Sleepy_Libra Hmm, that's a point - he was never killed off.
21:47:39 Trance_Gemini I'd like Paul McGann in the role, he'd be good.
21:48:07 Sleepy_Libra I'd love to have 13 lives - I'd throw the current one off a bridge so I could start again with a nice new one.
21:48:47 Trance_Gemini It'd be the Tardis I'd like, visiting all those planets!
21:49:09 Sleepy_Libra The Doctor always seems to run into trouble, though, when he goes visiting other planets. :)
21:50:34 Trance_Gemini Like...the Daleks *shudders* I saw one at a Doctor Who exhibition and tho' I knew it wasn't real, I was still kind of scared!
21:50:52 Billy1987-1994 I've never been scared of Who.
21:51:01 Billy1987-1994 Or Knightmare, for that matter.
21:51:10 Sleepy_Libra Hehe - while my parents cowered behind the sofa when the Daleks came on, I was always wary of Km!
21:51:41 Trance_Gemini I was watching Sophia's quest (S6) the other night and jumped when that Geist appeared in the dwarf tunnel!
21:51:55 Sleepy_Libra Hehe. :)
21:51:58 Trance_Gemini I admit I'm scared of them - they're awful looking.
21:52:28 Billy1987-1994 Wow, do you know, this is the first time no one's called me a liar.
21:52:41 Sleepy_Libra I've never called you a liar.
21:53:06 Billy1987-1994 I didn't say you had
21:53:07 Trance_Gemini Lol! Different people are scared of different things, that's all.
21:54:09 Billy1987-1994 Well, I *used* to be scared of the test card
21:54:30 Trance_Gemini Lol - THAT test card with the girl and the clown doll?
21:54:37 Sleepy_Libra >
21:54:42 Billy1987-1994 Indeed!
21:54:56 Sleepy_Libra That beeping was terrifying, eh? ;)
21:55:22 Trance_Gemini I don't like the noise the Digibox makes when the signal gets interrupted.
21:55:24 Sleepy_Libra Beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee-BEEE-beee-beee-BEEE-beee-Beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.......
21:55:48 Sleepy_Libra What noise is that?
21:56:02 Billy1987-1994 ARGH!
21:56:08 Trance_Gemini It's hard to describe. It isnt' nice tho'
21:56:31 Trance_Gemini What way would you pronounce the Geist's whine, SL?
21:56:52 Sleepy_Libra A sort of back-and-forth monotone whistling, I think.
21:57:06 Sleepy_Libra No, bitone, thinking about it.
21:57:10 Trance_Gemini I hate it *shudders*
21:57:20 *Sleepy_Libra hugs TG
21:57:31 *Trance_Gemini hugs SL
21:57:43 *Sleepy_Libra was hoping that would happen :)
21:58:30 Trance_Gemini Ahh :)
21:59:09 *Sleepy_Libra is annoyed because he came up with the idea that all the points on the perimeter of the Mandelbrot Set have transcendental Z values - only to discover that someone had already worked that out twenty odd years ago :(
21:59:29 Trance_Gemini Why does that always happen?
21:59:37 Sleepy_Libra Hehe, indeed. :)
21:59:53 Trance_Gemini What's the Mandelbrot Set?
22:00:05 Sleepy_Libra Hang on, I'll find a picture of it...
22:01:11 Trance_Gemini I've started my own forum - check it out at: http://com1.akheva.com/btrancegeminisgalaticgroup
22:01:39 Trance_Gemini There are only 7 members (including me) at the mo, and we're getting lonely!
22:01:51 Sleepy_Libra Indeed.
22:02:06 Billy1987-1994 has left the room
22:02:34 Billy1987-1994 has joined the room
22:02:49 Trance_Gemini You can talk about TV, film, music and other stuff there.
22:02:51 *Billy1987-1994 is also annoyed because he came up with the idea that by rubbing two sticks together you can come up with an unusual substance known as 'fire' - only to discover that someone had already worked that out several million years ago
22:03:19 Sleepy_Libra http://www.softsource.com/m_main.gif
22:03:40 Sleepy_Libra This is rather more profound than fire, mate. :)
22:04:03 Trance_Gemini I can't click on it :-(
22:04:06 Sleepy_Libra We may well be talking about the secrets of the universe.
22:04:18 Sleepy_Libra Damn. Hang on...
22:04:28 Trance_Gemini It's the same with my "link"
22:05:57 Trance_Gemini Ooh. Pretty! :)
22:06:04 Sleepy_Libra Indeed. :)
22:06:44 Sleepy_Libra The innermost of the contours (which can never actually be plotted) is the fractal itself.
22:07:13 Sleepy_Libra Despite covering a finite area, it has infinite length - because it is infinitely complex.
22:07:38 Trance_Gemini I don't think I'll ever be a maths whiz like you, but it still taxes my brain.
22:08:24 Sleepy_Libra The fact that a simple little equation produces something so pretty fascinates me. :)
22:08:57 Davius well, i have to be on my way now... i'll see you all next week!
22:09:15 Sleepy_Libra You can zoom in forever and the image will never simplify.
22:09:21 Trance_Gemini That reminds me - your class in the school is coming along nicely!
22:09:30 Trance_Gemini Bye, Davius *waves*
22:09:39 Davius bye!
22:09:43 Davius has left the room
22:10:31 Sleepy_Libra Bye!
22:11:28 Trance_Gemini The curse of BT, perhaps?
22:11:32 Sleepy_Libra This ruddy computer has slowed right down again.
22:12:02 Trance_Gemini My Yahoo Messenger said you'd gone offline! Glad it isn't so. :)
22:12:46 Sleepy_Libra No, this is a uni computer - I'm on campus this weekend to tackle my project.
22:12:56 Sleepy_Libra This is far too slow. BRB.
22:12:58 Sleepy_Libra has left the room
22:13:11 Trance_Gemini Hmm...there seems to be a bit of an argument starting on the Boarding School forum to do with the Night Expedition. :S
22:14:11 Trance_Gemini I've stopped putting ideas down in that - it seems my character gets thwarted every time. :-(
22:14:57 Trance_Gemini So now I'm just going to contribute to the classes and other stuff, after all my character is still alive. :-)
22:15:37 Trance_Gemini She has NOT been kidnapped by ScarEye, and there are NO scars on her body from where blood was collected. Oh no, GreenDragon is fighting fit!
22:16:04 Trance_Gemini Mind you, it's still a great story and LordBob has a great imagination.
22:17:36 Trance_Gemini Dodododododo....Billy, are you still here?
22:18:34 *Trance_Gemini listens to silence
22:18:37 Malefact has joined the room
22:18:48 Malefact Stupid computers.
22:18:51 Trance_Gemini WB!
22:18:55 Malefact Thanks!
22:19:21 Malefact The computers in Lab F slowed right down (I think they power the servers down at this time, the skinflints!)
22:19:37 Trance_Gemini It seems we're by ourselves again. :-) Well, mostly. Billy hasn't answered for a while.
22:19:40 Malefact I've moved to a nice, shiny Computer Science lab.
22:19:51 Malefact Billy may well be looking at other windows. :)
22:19:58 Malefact Btw, www.miniclip.com is nice. :)
22:20:10 Trance_Gemini What's it about?
22:20:37 Malefact It's got lots of nice free games.
22:20:49 Trance_Gemini Sounds good. :)
22:20:55 Malefact Indeed. :)
22:21:08 Malefact My current favourite is a Puzzle game called Fowl Words. :)
22:21:24 Trance_Gemini Something to do with chickens? :)
22:22:08 Malefact Well, sort of - it's a bit like scrabble. You're given a series of letters and you have to make as many words from them as you can in a given time.
22:22:21 Trance_Gemini I bought a puzzle book the other day. I'm enjoying doing them, despite the fact that there's hardly any so far I haven't had to look up the answers for.
22:22:22 Malefact The letters are painted on chickens. :)
22:22:30 Trance_Gemini Lol!
22:23:00 Malefact I wish I could go back in time and redo some of the puzzle bits and pieces given to me every now and then - with what I know now I could rip them to shreds.
22:23:04 Malefact Ah, well. :)
22:23:18 Malefact Btw, do you play the Pinball game that comes with Windoze XP?
22:23:33 Trance_Gemini Sometimes. Once, I got quite a good score on it!
22:24:18 Malefact I Iike that game. :)
22:24:24 Trance_Gemini I used to be quite good at Solitaire. I never understood FreeCell tho'.
22:24:31 Malefact My top score is about 27 million and I can get up to the fourth rank.
22:24:46 Malefact I don't play the card games much.
22:24:51 *Trance_Gemini claps
22:25:09 Malefact The trick with Pinball is to try to keep getting extra balls.
22:25:33 Trance_Gemini I'm not really a fan of card games (tho' I'll play when other people are) - I prefer board games, electronic and video games.
22:25:43 Malefact Me too.
22:25:50 Malefact I played Monopoly earlier this week.
22:26:11 Trance_Gemini I've got that too. :-) I don't win very often tho'.
22:26:24 Malefact I don't win that much, either - I think luck has a lot to do with it.
22:27:07 *Trance_Gemini suddenly remembers that apart from The Two Ronnies at 4.05pm, Keeping Up Appearances is on at 11am on BBC1 and Last of the Summer Wine is on at 1.15 on UK Gold.
22:27:22 Malefact I had three houses on each of the yellow squares at one point - it was great when someone landed on one because that cost them £800 :)
22:27:42 Malefact Is Allo Allo on tomorrow on BBC1 as well?
22:27:45 Trance_Gemini Lol, I love it when you have to be paid - the power rush!
22:27:50 Malefact Indeed. :)
22:27:52 Trance_Gemini Not in Scotland.
22:28:01 Malefact That's a shame. :(
22:28:06 Malefact I'll have to check down here.
22:28:29 Malefact "Hotel on Mayfair, let's see... that's £2000 you owe me!" :)
22:28:32 Trance_Gemini I've never really watched that when it was on at first because Mum thought it was silly :S
22:28:42 Malefact "Can't pay? Oh, diddums! Gimme your property, then!" :)
22:28:56 Malefact Well, it's a typical Carry On-style comedy. :)
22:29:09 Trance_Gemini I've managed a few hotels in my time. :)
22:29:19 Trance_Gemini We like Carry On films - the good ones :)
22:29:24 Malefact Indeed. :)
22:29:34 Malefact Don't Lose Your Head is funny. :)
22:30:09 Trance_Gemini Never seen it - I've seen Cowboy, Screaming, Doctor, Nurse...
22:30:37 Malefact I think Camping was the first one I ever saw - when I was about six.
22:31:06 Trance_Gemini Lol! I know what's in that one!
22:31:25 Malefact Indeed! For a six-year old it was rather interesting! :D
22:31:34 Trance_Gemini Oh yeah, I've seen Carry On Sergeant too...
22:31:56 Malefact Cleo is good, imo.
22:32:23 Trance_Gemini Haven't seen that one yet. I've seen pics though. :)
22:32:44 Malefact Have you seen Carry On At Your Own Convenience?
22:33:36 Trance_Gemini No. :-( Before I got Sky it never seemed to be shown on good 'ol terrestrial. :-(
22:34:02 Malefact It's been shown a couple of times over the years. It's one of my favourites. :)
22:34:11 Trance_Gemini Oh...Carry On Cabby's another one.
22:34:15 Malefact Emmanuelle, though, is terrible.
22:34:16 Malefact I like Cabby. :)
22:34:39 Trance_Gemini There's supposed to be a new Carry On film being made. I hope they get it right. :S
22:34:52 Malefact Carry On London, yes. I hope so, too.
22:35:43 Trance_Gemini Most of the original cast(s) are dead. :-(
22:35:52 Malefact Indeed. ;(
22:36:38 Trance_Gemini Why do all those great comedians die at the same time? It ain't fair. :(
22:36:52 Malefact Exponential distribution: events cluster.
22:38:07 Trance_Gemini Phew, this Chat has thankfully been undisturbed so far. :-)
22:38:22 Malefact Indeed! Quite a lot has been discussed, too. :)
22:38:37 Trance_Gemini It'll make an interesting Log. :)
22:38:46 Malefact Indeed! :)
22:39:14 Malefact Oh, btw...
22:39:24 Trance_Gemini There was one that made painful reading at the end - involving how some people's hair was fuzzy... :S
22:39:38 Malefact Ah, yes. :S
22:39:39 Billy1987-1994 Ah, I know what you mean
22:39:48 Malefact ARGH!
22:39:53 Malefact There you are! :)
22:40:28 Trance_Gemini Lol, I've got it. :)
22:41:23 Trance_Gemini In fact, there are quite a LOT of logs that are somewhat tainted...
22:41:38 Malefact !cyber start
22:41:42 Billy1987-1994 monkey
22:41:43 Trance_Gemini ...ruining the intelligent chat that started it out...
22:41:48 Trance_Gemini :p
22:41:49 Ianrob13 has joined the room
22:41:55 Malefact Hi!
22:41:57 *Trance_Gemini shakes head in disgrace
22:41:58 Billy1987-1994 Hi Ianrob13!
22:42:00 Trance_Gemini Hi!
22:42:03 Ianrob13 Hello room!
22:42:13 Malefact Are you the Ian who was here last week?
22:42:18 Ianrob13 I was on last Sat night
22:42:22 Ianrob13 Yes!
22:42:28 Malefact Ah, right! Welcome back! :)
22:42:38 Trance_Gemini WB from me too. :)
22:43:19 Ianrob13 Thankyou!
22:43:38 Trance_Gemini I'll give you a warning Ian...watch out for this guy called Namenthus. It's best not to reply to him 'cause all he talks is rubbish...
22:43:53 Ianrob13 Tempouary Dissrupsion Over Bong!
22:44:01 Trance_Gemini If you ignore him he'll go away. Luckily he isn't here just now! :-)
22:44:07 Ianrob13 Sorry about the spelling!
22:44:32 Malefact Did you catch the final episode on Monday?
22:44:52 Ianrob13 I think so Final one on challage?
22:45:05 Trance_Gemini "Well, there's a saddle there, can she see it?"
22:45:06 Malefact Yup.
22:45:14 Trance_Gemini "It's up there to the left, I think."
22:45:18 Ianrob13 Oh yes!
22:45:24 Malefact Quite a nice ending, I thought.
22:45:32 Trance_Gemini "One moves with grace and speed!"
22:45:39 Trance_Gemini Lol, some great lines there.
22:45:52 Ianrob13 Classy, Very Classy
22:46:13 Sleepy_Libra Series 6 is far better. :)
22:46:25 Ianrob13 I really need to get a quality name!
22:46:27 Trance_Gemini Oh, I love S6! :-D
22:46:53 Trance_Gemini Ohboyohboyohboy, viewers that haven't seen it for years are gonna be in for a treat when Challenge shows S6!
22:46:59 Sleepy_Libra I think most of the Km character names have been nabbed already. :)
22:47:08 Billy1987-1994 Amen to that!
22:48:08 Trance_Gemini All the teams were very good! And the dialogue, character development and rooms were just the best!
22:48:28 Ianrob13 What year was S6?
22:48:29 Sleepy_Libra Series 6 has an excellent winning team and an excellent ending.
22:48:32 Sleepy_Libra 1992.
22:48:34 Trance_Gemini 1992.
22:48:39 Trance_Gemini Lol! :-D
22:48:40 Billy1987-1994 '92, it's a great series
22:48:41 Sleepy_Libra :)
22:48:51 Ianrob13 What was the major changes?
22:48:59 Sleepy_Libra Much more incidental music, for a start.
22:49:06 Ianrob13 Are challage going to play it?
22:49:09 Billy1987-1994 New titles, new life force
22:49:17 Sleepy_Libra Things were speeded up quite considerably, too - no hanging around.
22:49:22 Trance_Gemini Remember this line from Ben's quest: "Don't step on it!" (regarding the Spy Glass).
22:49:32 Billy1987-1994 Challenge will buy it if the repeats of S5 are good enough
22:49:34 Sleepy_Libra Challenge might get it - it all depends on how they've felt series 5 has done.
22:49:39 Ianrob13 And soory for being a geek! but how can I see S1
22:49:53 Sleepy_Libra Hey, you're not a geek!
22:50:10 Trance_Gemini They'll buy it in the end, once they've shown S6, 7, 8 in that order, lol.
22:50:14 Sleepy_Libra I don't think Challenge will show s1 anytime soon, though.
22:50:18 Ianrob13 Geek for not knowing!
22:50:20 Billy1987-1994 I'm afraid there's no way to see S1 anymore
22:50:28 Ianrob13 I NEED TO SEE IT!
22:50:37 Trance_Gemini Oh no, why not?
22:50:39 Sleepy_Libra I KNOW THE FEELING! :)
22:51:01 Ianrob13 Has anybody got a Tape/Dvd?
22:51:24 Ianrob13 What about Ebay?
22:51:35 Sleepy_Libra There has been a crackdown on all that, I'm afraid.
22:51:46 Thanatos has joined the room
22:51:48 Trance_Gemini I've taped Series 3, 4, 5 off Challenge. I got S6 from a trader - in the end.
22:51:50 Sleepy_Libra Some suits at Granada asked Tim Child to warn us.
22:51:51 Thanatos Greetings, all.
22:51:52 Sleepy_Libra WB!
22:51:54 Billy1987-1994 If only you were here last year
22:51:58 Billy1987-1994 Greetings Thanatos!
22:52:04 Trance_Gemini Hi!
22:52:45 Trance_Gemini It took ages getting S6, after a lot of pestering. :S
22:52:59 Ianrob13 Hello Thanatos I am new!
22:53:28 Thanatos Welcome, then.
22:54:01 Ianrob13 I WANT S1, I WANT S1 I WANT S1 FOR XMAS!
22:54:20 Billy1987-1994 I'd give you it if I could
22:54:22 Chris has joined the room
22:54:25 Thanatos Well, we live in hope/
22:54:26 Thanatos .
22:54:30 Thanatos Greetings, Chris.
22:54:31 Chris hi everyone
22:54:33 Sleepy_Libra Hi!
22:54:36 Sleepy_Libra I'm Malefact.
22:54:38 Ianrob13 Billy what happend last year!
22:54:52 Ianrob13 Hi chris I am new To!
22:54:54 Trance_Gemini Hi Chris!
22:54:55 Chris hi sleepy libra/malefact :)
22:55:40 Chris hi Trance_Gemini and lanrob
22:56:18 Chris series 5 was top nootch
22:56:19 Trance_Gemini What's the weather like where everyone is? It's POURING up here in Scotland - nasty.
22:56:34 Sleepy_Libra Much the same here. :(
22:56:40 Ianrob13 Same in Hull
22:56:43 Sleepy_Libra I got a soaking today.
22:56:53 Trance_Gemini Come on snow, where are you?
22:57:25 Billy1987-1994 Ok, can I just say that I absolutely love snow and love it when it comes
22:57:42 Sleepy_Libra 'Spose you can. :)
22:58:18 Trance_Gemini I love it too, especially when there's a bit of sun too. I like that snowscape scene.
22:59:01 Trance_Gemini Only problem is, there's not a lot of snow falling in Scotland anymore. :-(
22:59:10 Thanatos has left the room
22:59:16 Trance_Gemini Well, not the area of Scotland where I live.
22:59:24 Sleepy_Libra Let's run away to Greenland, then. :)
23:00:12 Billy1987-1994 The reason I love show is that it's so blooming rare here in London. That huge snowfall back in late January was amazing
23:00:19 Billy1987-1994 *snow
23:00:58 Trance_Gemini I've got a photo of a snowy scene near my house a few years ago. It looks like a Christmas card. :)
23:01:08 Sleepy_Libra :)
23:02:37 Trance_Gemini Listen to this RIDICULOUS idea that the Scottish Parliment have considered. Someone there wants the word 'Christmas' to be BANNED from cards, instead saying "Season's Greetings" instead! Supposedly this is so as not to offend people of non-Christian religion!
23:03:45 Ianrob13 People why does this website get a team for the new adult Knightmare!
23:04:01 Billy1987-1994 Because it's still in the making.
23:04:04 Sleepy_Libra TG: Unutterably ridiculous.
23:04:23 Billy1987-1994 ...and personally I have my doubts that it will actually arrive
23:04:29 Sleepy_Libra Well, we don't know if the new Km is adult - and it hasn't got a commission yet. :(
23:04:35 Ianrob13 For when this new program starts!
23:04:39 Trance_Gemini I mean, just about EVERYONE celebrates Christmas, whether they're religious or not!
23:04:52 Ianrob13 Have a bit of optimism people!
23:04:53 Billy1987-1994 No one really knows, it was around now at one time
23:04:55 Trance_Gemini I hope it's picked up before long - me wants to see new KM!
23:04:58 Sleepy_Libra I think the preference nowadays is to refer to it as the Holiday Season.
23:05:05 Sleepy_Libra Me too!
23:06:03 Ianrob13 Can we not be happy?
23:06:22 Trance_Gemini Lol, I prefer it to be called the Christmas period - it sounds more festive! :)
23:06:23 Sleepy_Libra I can vaguely remember what it's like to be happy.
23:06:30 Ianrob13 If your happy and you know it clap your hands!
23:06:39 Trance_Gemini Heeeey...I'm happy!
23:06:40 *Billy1987-1994 claps one hand
23:06:42 Ianrob13 Night Gents!
23:06:44 Billy1987-1994 Bye!
23:06:48 Sleepy_Libra Bye!
23:06:49 Trance_Gemini Bye!
23:06:51 Ianrob13 has left the room
23:06:55 Billy1987-1994 I hope we didn't scare him off.
23:07:20 Trance_Gemini My, hasn't this been a long chat! With some very good topics of conversation! :)
23:07:36 Sleepy_Libra Indeed! :)
23:08:00 Trance_Gemini Meh - Mum's called me downstairs. I know what THAT means - my supper's ready and I have to go downstairs.
23:08:17 Sleepy_Libra :( :( :(
23:08:29 Billy1987-1994 Wait- You have a computer in your bedroom?
23:08:45 Trance_Gemini Yep - there was no room in the living room.
23:08:49 Billy1987-1994 Wow!
23:09:12 Trance_Gemini Lol, I thought most people had them in their bedroom! :)
23:09:35 Kessa has joined the room
23:09:44 Trance_Gemini Well, I'll have to go now - see ya later, peeps!
23:09:47 Chris Hi Kessa
23:09:50 *Trance_Gemini hugs SL
23:09:52 Kessa Hi-lo there.
23:09:53 Billy1987-1994 Considering how much I'm on this thing, I don't think I'd see a living soul for the next few years if I did.
23:09:55 Sleepy_Libra Bye! :(
23:09:56 Billy1987-1994 Bye Trance!
23:09:58 Sleepy_Libra Hi!
23:10:01 Billy1987-1994 And Hi Kessa!
23:10:02 Trance_Gemini Bye!
23:10:04 Trance_Gemini has left the room
23:12:53 Billy1987-1994 ...erm, so, who would win in a fight- Sonic or Mario?
23:12:58 Sleepy_Libra Sonic.
23:13:04 Billy1987-1994 I personally think Mario.
23:13:35 Billy1987-1994 Well, there we are then. 1 for Sonic, 1 for Mario.
23:13:50 Sleepy_Libra Sonic would spin-dash Mario into oblivion.
23:14:00 Sleepy_Libra He'd open up a can of whoop-ass on his sorry hide. :)
23:14:04 Billy1987-1994 Not if Mario turned into Super Mario.
23:14:22 Sleepy_Libra It would take Sonic a couple of goes, then.
23:15:00 Billy1987-1994 Ah, what about if Mario grabbed an Invincibility Star?
23:15:18 Sleepy_Libra Sonic would then become Ultra-Sonic. :)
23:15:33 Billy1987-1994 Hadn't thought of that!
23:28:18 *Kessa sleeps
23:28:39 *Billy1987-1994 also sleeps
23:28:46 Sleepy_Libra RAH!
23:29:14 Billy1987-1994 Wha? Huh? Oh, right, the chat
23:51:31 Billy1987-1994 SOLAR POWERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
23:51:56 Sleepy_Libra As I was going up the stair...
23:52:03 Sleepy_Libra I met a man who was not there...
23:52:05 Sleepy_Libra He wasn't there again today...
23:52:11 Sleepy_Libra Oh, how I wish he'd go away.
23:52:39 Billy1987-1994 As I was going up the stair
23:53:04 Billy1987-1994 I met a rather angry bear
23:53:48 Billy1987-1994 He didn't have a word to say
23:56:00 Billy1987-1994 But I had to leave, he was in my way.
23:56:31 Billy1987-1994 Yay, I'm a poet and I didn't even know it
23:57:26 Kessa Way.
23:57:47 KaM has joined the room
23:57:57 Billy1987-1994 Greetings KaM!
23:58:04 Sleepy_Libra Hi!
23:58:09 Chris Hi Kam
23:58:22 KaM Hello folks. My work.. what a week and a half this has been.
23:58:31 Sleepy_Libra Indeed?
23:58:32 KaM My work.. and even 'word'
23:58:55 KaM Oh, most of it not the best; sir. Sorry to disappoint
23:59:08 KaM Spent 8 hours of today Grease rehearsing
23:59:30 KaM I had a very awkward night last night; didn't sleep; and got upset during my song this morning
00:00:27 KaM Well; a lie.. I slept for just under 2 hours, when I must have curled my foot around too close to my bottom, and the back of my leg inflamed with cramp; woke me up.
00:01:34 Billy1987-1994 has left the room
00:01:45 Sleepy_Libra Nasty. :(
00:02:05 KaM Meh.. I'm All Choked Up - as the song goes
00:03:13 Sleepy_Libra Sorry I'm not particularly talkative atm - my attention is diverted.
00:03:48 KaM Tis ok; just wanted the theoretical company, my good sir.. even if it is being silent watching others' lines appear on here. :)
00:04:08 Sleepy_Libra Not many of them atm, I fear. :(
00:05:24 Billy1987-1994 has joined the room
00:05:42 Sleepy_Libra Oh-oh.
00:05:53 Billy1987-1994 Yes, I'm back, fear me

00:28:11 Chris has left the room
00:28:15 Billy1987-1994 Bye ! It's been fun!
00:28:21 Billy1987-1994 Oops
00:28:23 Sleepy_Libra If my lady returns, please tell her I'll be here tomorrow.
00:28:30 Billy1987-1994 Bye Sleepy_Libra! It's been fun!
00:28:32 Billy1987-1994 Will do.
00:28:39 Sleepy_Libra It has indeed. Thanks! :)
00:28:51 Sleepy_Libra has left the room
00:30:20 Billy1987-1994 Ok, let's liven this place up before everyone disappears. Jokes...jokes...ok, there was an elephant, a naked man and a short sighted pensioner. No, hang on, I can't do that one...
00:35:46 Billy1987-1994 Three men walk into a bar and one of them says 'Drinks are on me'. The third man asks for a brandy, and the second man just wants a Ribena. So the first man walks up to the bartender and says 'One brandy and one Ribena please'. The bartender gets them both and says 'That'll be a fiver' to which the first man replies 'Five quid?! You've gotta be joking. I...' erm, he says 'I...', er...shoot. I've forgotten again.
00:37:06 Billy1987-1994 Actually, I think I'm scaring more people off here than trying to start a conversation. :p I'll get me coat.
00:38:49 Namenthus has left the room

00:43:47 Billy1987-1994 So KaM, erm, if you could have superpowers, what would they be?

00:50:28 Billy1987-1994 Hmm...hmm, you know, that's a good idea
00:52:21 KaM :) It is; but a shame when it needs to be a 'superpower'
00:53:45 Billy1987-1994 Ok, how about just a 'power'?
00:55:24 KaM has left the room
