Roll VT darling ...
More Dieux Du Stade to follow in the New Year (not Mr Lamont whom I have yet to get in a covenient form ... but nothing is left to the imagination in his video).

3 x Swedish Cheese
First up is a vey strange and cheap 2001 video by Alcazar for their biggest hit "Crying at the Discoteque" It manages to be more hatstand and preposteroos than their inpiration track, Sheila B Devotion's "Spacer". And the mystery of why the lead singer matched those tight gold lame shorts with his shiny helmet (despite trying to look smouldering in a suit for half the time) is still a bit puzzling, He's got it to flaunt though.
Next up, Continuing a run of "Doctor Who" music videos are the A-Teens, who back a celebration of the whole series with "Floorfiller".
And we all know whose tribute band they were. Take me back to '75 ...
If only they's stopped with those same moves and camera angles in that early video.

Babel's tribute to the Ninth Doctor
This one's entitled 'Not so macho' ... tends to linger on the Auton hand wrangling and gurning from early in his short tenure.
David Tennant/The Smiths -"The Boy With the Thorn in his Side" (from 'Blackpool")
This dates from just pre-"Doctor Who" days, as "Blackpool" was screened in November/December 2004. Possibly the most choreographed drugs bust in TV history. Tennant and co-stars Bryan Dick and Thomas Morrison are channelling Mr M via the Young Generation. Love it!

are the 2 URLs you need here. This is avery large collection of photos for those of you with a secret pash for the 'housing estate trash' - now a hefty niche market in British gay porn. It's quite a jumble of convincing, non-convincing (the above trio sadly), solo and action. As there are also American and German guys in there the moniker may not quite apply either.
Even a photo I took made it in there!
And if you can cope with XTube videos then these will come in handy ...

A Musical Tribute to the Doctor Who companions
This is a ruddy brilliant piece of work by one who calls himself Babel, and I'll be posting some of his other creations soon. The tributes to Doctors 1, 9 and 10 are particularly funny.
Here we have ALL the companions to date (not an Adam or a Katerina or Kamelion left aside) with footage carefully cut to the lyrics of "Feeling Good" (the Michael Buble version I think).
Stars on 54 - "If You Could Read My Mind"
As we approach the new year it's time to dance around those handbags, Here's one camp track I discovered from the 1998 movie '54'(though I was already a fan of Gordon Lightfoot's original) where it was a recurring theme.This video features some nicely gratuitous shots of suddenly single Ryan Phillipe.

Doctor Who - series 3 trailer
Yes I know I'm behind with my reviews of both "The Runaway Bride" and the last batch of "Torchwood" (Note that they will spring up nearer their broadcast date here) but here's the season 3 trailer that graced the end credits on Monday night. If you don't blink you'll spot Dean Lennox Kelly, Ardal O'Hanlon (under prosthetics but you'll get the voice), Miranda Raison, Hugh Quarshie, Mark Gatiss and new girl Freema Agyeman.
Expected due date 7 April 2007 (Easter Saturday once more) with the episode "Smith and Jones"

A bit kinkier than my normal, but what's few ropes, some candlewax and a gag between friends?
This is from wiliamhiggins.com originally (where being tied up is an occasional risk) and it's the cute Czech blond 'victim' (named Eric for the set) that swung it for me.

This week I've mostly been listening to ...
Had to give a recommendation to The Green Lounge. It's an internet radio station that plays just the sort of music I need. That should tell you what an interesting bloke/sad fuck I am, depending on your own taste.
If you have iTunes go to the radio player then choose the Eclectic menu, alternatively go to http://www.thegreenlounge.net

20 Thousand and counting!
Just to say that. while I was in an alchoholic haze yesterday, the blog amassed 20,000 hits. As it got to the 10,000 mark in late August I think that's good going, even if no-one seems to want to talk to me anymore.

The 12 Lays of Christmas - 1
Men at Play give us Maurice and Mukhtar - a very exotic combination. Mukhtar is Brazilian/Russsian and possesses an awesome uncut weapon between his legs (reported as a 9 inch by 9 inch 'brick').

The Proclaimers - "Sunshine on Leith"
Craig & Charlie's masterpiece, even if it only made no41 in November 1988, Here it is live at T in the Park. Sublime.
(Was it only me who found the twins sexy?)
Lulu - "To Sir With Love
After a dash of the future here's a warming track from way back in 1967. It's surely from an American TV show (where this was a deserved No1).
One of my all time faves, thanks to being played as the regular last track at the first gay 'disco' I went to ("The Laughing Duck" in Edinburgh) back in 1983
Mika - "Grace Kelly"
I'm posting my favourite tracks of the year on Boxing day, but here's one I think is for the future - a not unattractive young man by the name of Mika. He's a cross between Robbie Williams and Bruno from "The Kids from Fame".
The single "Grace Kelly" is out in January.

The 12 Lays of Christmas
As from Monday I'm suspending Porn Star Peek for the holidays. Fear not smut lovers, as I'm replacing it with a daily dose of some plural stuff. That is to say I'm linking to photosets with actual goo-splattered gay sex . Normally, in an attempt to be inclusive, I steer clear of such stuff but I still have some faves I want to share.
Feedback please.

Doctor Who - "The Runaway Bride" gallery up
Including the first sight of the Empress of Rachnoss (above) - an unrecognisable Sarah Parish.
Having attended Matt Lucas' wedding reception at the weekend (dressed as Buttons), David Tennant was keeping tight lipped about staying on for the fourth series which the BBC confirmed yesterday at the press launch for this year's Christmas Day episode.

Some saucy scamp has redubbed one of my childhood favourites ... and it's bloody hilarious!

Doctor Who at Christmas
Three "Doctor Who" related programmes air over the festive season on BBC One, as related in detail here - http://www.bbc.co.uk/pressoffice/proginfo/tv/wk52/trans_bbc1.shtml
As well as "The Runaway Bride" at 7 on Christmas Day, there is a 1 hour "Doctor Who Confidential" (entitled "Music & Monsters") at 1pm, presumably focussing on Murray Gold and the recent "Children in Need" concert in Cardiff. And on the afternoon of New Years' Day we have a further hour with "The Sarah Jane Adventures: Invasion of the Bane", the promised pilot of the CBBC spin-off starring Lis Sladen and Samantha Bond.
Meanwhile the last 3 eps of "Torchwood" on BBC3 are apparently slightly re-jigged. Ep 11 airs half an hour early on Christmas Eve at 9.30pm, while the last 2 episodes air consecutively the same night, again at 9.30pm, but on New Years' Day rather than New Years' Eve. Probably wise.
Incedentally, for the umpteenth time this year "Doctor Who" gets the cover of the "Radio Times" - the issue that goes on sale today for the week of 16-22 December.

PS - There's another "Doctor Who" version of "The Weakest Link" coming up (filmed in November) but I don't know if that's part of the festive schedules. Unlike the previous one it appears more 'new series star'-oriented.

Torchwood - "They Keep Killing Suzie" 9/10
Apologies for the delay in my reviews. I've missed last week's episode on all it's screenings, but may still catch up later.
So here's my take on "They Keep Killing Susie", basically a sequel to the first episode but (in my opinion) a little more clever. It's the only one of the run written by the combo of Paul Tomalin and Dan McCulloch and the second (after "Cyberwoman") directed by James Strong. Strong is now back at "Doctor Who" handling the 1930s New York-set 2-parter.
But back to the hub ...
A spate of serial killings throw up clues which eventually lead the team back to the 'ressurection glove' and dead ex-colleague Suzie Costello (Indira Varma), handily kept in cold storage. Jack at first attempts to use the glove but fails, so Gwen volunteers and is quite adept, if traumatised. So Gwen brings Susie back to life, albeit with the latter still bearing her fatal shotgun wounds through the head. Lucky for Susie it was a remarkably 'clean' wound!
Strangely, Susie does not 'die' again after the requisite time. She is interrogated at the hub and reveals her father is dying of cancer. Meanwhile Max, an erstwhile acquaintance of Suzie's, is also confined in the Hub cells under heavy suspicion of committing the serial killings. Suddenly Max manages to trigger a complete lockdown just as Jack discovers Susie and Gwen have fled. It transpires that not only has Suzie planned everything out, she is also aware that her 'death-force', complete with wounds are being transferred slowly to Gwen and it will soon prove fatal. Gwen has taken Susie to the hospital where her father lies in life support. Shockingly, she rips away the tubes and wires to kill him - this was not the sentimental visit Gwen had assumed.
By this time Gwen is in a worse way than Suzie and back at the hub they are trying to escape. Jack and team manage this by solving Suzie's complex trap, which involves an ISDN number from a book of Emily Dickenson poetry and the help of a policewoman (Yasmin Bannerman) on the end of a phone.
The gang race off in pursuit and there's eventually a dawn showdown with Suzie and the near-dead Gwen. Despite firing a volley of bullets into Suzie, she still won't die, and the effect is not reversed. Finally Jack realises the glove too must be destroyed, which Tosh immediately does. As Suzie finally dies she whispers a final prophecy to Jack, no doubt one which will be returned to. Day saved by Torchwood once more!
But that was not all. As with "Countrycide" the very last scene was unconnected with the main story and again revealed (albeit so subtly that it was cryptic) that 2 of the team are shagging without any previous signposting to the audience. Since this was Jack and Ianto again it was 2 who seemed unlikely to be even friendly given events in "Cyberwoman". Ianto also appears to call Jack 'Sir' even in this context - rather kinky!
There's a few imperfections to the logic of Suzie's best laid plans and a big continuity concern when night turns suddenly to dawn near the end but I thought it was one of the best as well as one of the more adult in a grown-up way. There's also possible hints to the future with Suzie's last words and the late realisation that gloves come in pairs.
