Night ladies, or good morning should I say as I now up and ready for the new day. 

 

Oranges! now that makes sense, there must be some way to develop skills before actually inking someone.

When it first started, the Radio Times described it as "like a CBeebies version of 'Homeland'".

 

I must admit I'm following it too, but am also behind, which is why I haven't been posting about it.

On Channel 5 now.

This may or may not be good (or bad in a so bad it's good kind of way).

Trying to come up to speed on that too - it was shown on Spike a couple of months ago, but I was too busy trying to keep up with "Breaking Bad" and BB at the time.

 

Something I only discovered  recently is that Stephen Merchant's an executive producer on the show, along with Fallon and John Krasinski. They all compete on it at some point too...

Absolutely horrendous. The programme on just before Blackfish, about the circus elephant that escaped was heartbreaking too. Its torture what it was subjected to.

Yeah, I'd heard about it just before i went to America last year.. It was on the plane in flight stuff but i decided not to watch it until the return flight.... The trainers interviews were eye opening too. When i was there (At seaworld Orlando) they were rebuilding the whole stadium, so the Orca was in what i can only describe as a bathtub with a viewing window... I never went there and i'm glad i didnt.

 

The shows were more about the trainers acting and colourful parrots breaking up the dolphin shows... they were good and each animal only really did 1 or 2 tricks.....

 

I do hope they've taken all this on board (even if it was through publicity of their downfalls) ie rebuilding the Whale shows etc.

 

Although I did notice on the way into Seaworld there were signs banning protests and slogans on Tshirts

They made a comment about the holding pens in the documentary, Jen.  I'm glad I watched the programme although I can't say it made for pleasant viewing - the injuries sustained by the trainers were horrific and I'm bemused as to why, after the 1st death, that they carried on with the training/daily shows.

 

It certainly proved to me, if proof were needed, that holding these beautiful creatures in captivity is wrong.....and I don't care how intelligent they are OR how clever the trainers are in 'relating' to them  

Cosmopolitan
