fajrdrako | David Tennant in the Mrs Bradley Mysteries: Death at the Opera...

I had dinner with Beulah at the Green Door restaurant: delicious as always.

Then we came back to my place, and she did a repair job on the wooden chair at my computer desk - she says it's incomplete, but it looks great. The right arm had come off. It's on now. Hooray for Beulah and her tools!

That being done, we watched The Mrs. Bradley Mysteries: Death at the Opera, starring Diana Rigg as a 1920s British sleuth. We got a great surprise right off: one of the key roles, Max Valentine, is played by David Tennant. Which we hadn't known or expected. And that isn't the only Doctor Who connection, since Peter Davison plays Inspector Henry Christmas.

Max Valentine, needless to say, was gorgeous. Here he is with braces, like Captain Jack. And dressed up. There are more pictures on this site.

Aside from Max Valentine, my favourite role in the story was Neil Dudgeon as George Moody, Mrs. Bradley's resourceful and charming chauffeur. He wore very sexy boots.
