Stonewall Award again...

[fajrdrako]

I can't resist posting this, from 'the Guardian' re John Barrowman getting the Stonewall award:

The handsome Doctor Who and Torchwood star, John Barrowman, was mightily upset that he couldn't make the awards do, but he had a novel excuse. "I'm so sorry that I can't be here to receive this award, but someone has to save the world from aliens." Barrowman could not break filming commitments in Wales for Torchwood, and Sir Ian sensed the acute disappointment in the crowd. As he then said: "Those who want to present the award to John Barrowman in person form an orderly queue here."

I love it!
But yes, he's right: saving the world from aliens has to take priority!

[fajrdrako.livejournal.com]

One would think. But you know... if the aliens are the Sycorax or Weevils it's one thing. But if the alien is the Doctor? - He saves the world from us!

I think we can assume on this occasion it's not the Doctor...
Or if it is, Jack may have even better reason to stay in Cardiff!

An orderly queue! <3 Ian so much.

Ah :) thanks for sharing.

I like both comments. But then, I like both actors...

[fajrdrako.livejournal.com]

As I do. No surprise there. I first saw McKellen at the National Arts Centre in his "Acting Shakespeare" show - it was brilliant. Then I saw him in "Macbeth" in London in 1976 and I'll never forget it.

My goodness yes.

[fajrdrako.livejournal.com]

Yup. I'd send my excuses.

*jumps in line*

Me! ME! mememememememememe!!!!!

Oh wait, he wasn't actually serious was he?

Damn that bastard! ;)

[fajrdrako.livejournal.com]

We wish!

And p.s.... that is an exceptionally lovely icon. Oh my.

[medelle.livejournal.com]

Eh, we can always dream I suppose. :)

You like that icon eh? Well how about this one? :D

[fajrdrako.livejournal.com]

Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

Um. Regaining my dignity. That's a fine icon you have there, m'dear. Very fine indeed.

In fact I'm sort of hypnotized by it at the moment....

[medelle.livejournal.com]

LOL!!!

I need more Capn Jack icons. Sadly this one is the last I have in my repetoire, and its not really Capn Jack. :)

[fajrdrako.livejournal.com]

Ah, but it's a fine and noble sentiment!

[medelle.livejournal.com]

What I need is to somehow get a Jack/9/Rose/10 shot for an icon. :D

[fajrdrako.livejournal.com]

That would be fun. You might have to do some photoshopping...

Uh-oh, mesmerized by your icon again. (Happy sigh.)

[medelle.livejournal.com]

heee.

Give iiiiiiiiiin to the icon!! ;)

Im not terribly grand at PS, but I might well need to try it for the sake of quality art. :D

Don't we all...!

*loves Sir Ian and Mr. Barrowman both*

(I've been meaning to comment on your various Torchwood posts for ages. Later this week, hopefully.)

[fajrdrako.livejournal.com]

*loves Sir Ian and Mr. Barrowman both*

Aren't they both just so... lovable?

(Good icon!)

I look forward to hearing your comments on my comments about Torchwood. I have, in fact, more to say... but seldom seem to have time to say it. Eventually!

[fajrdrako.livejournal.com]

He is utterly wonderful.

[fajrdrako.livejournal.com]

You icon has captured my heart. Gun porn: I am so easy.

[star-momma.livejournal.com]

hehe I'm guessing they would have to get in line behind Sir Ian himself unless his taste is slipping of late :P

[fajrdrako.livejournal.com]

I have no doubt he was first in line.
