Yep, Solihull. Solihull is around 9 miles from the centre of Birmingham, but I'm sure it's shorter if you go straight to Stratford from Brum.

Ugh, jealous. I missed out on 20-ft high HD Ianto -pout-

Well, i have to say, i 'm more proud of navigating my way there with a printout from multimap and making it home safely than i am the actual seeing of Crotchwoot...

Hypothyroidism doesnt necessarily make you agoraphobic, but one gets so used to being HOME because one is too tired to do anytihng else, that when one suddenly decides to go to cities alone where one hasnt been before, in the dark, etc, one feels proud of doing it and not chickening out.

That said, there was a definite atmos in the cinema that night, and we ALl giggled when Owen sprayed the man and got kissed and the yelled for a taxi! (i assumed he was running away alone, not taking them both home to rape them!)

When I was going to Uni interviews I had to go to all these crazy cities which I'd never been to before on my own. I hate that - no thanks to new experiences - and I was so pleased I made it and didn't end up in the wrong country or something :P I do not have a good track record with trains.

I interpreted the Owen scene as he was going home with both of them, but maybe it was deliberately left open like that. I don't think the writers actually intended it to be seen as a possible rape.

Whatever the audience saw, there was HUGE laughter at that point. I dont think the writers thought anyone would see it as rape either.

Honestly - if they want to know how its going to be interpreted, they need to ask some WOMEN before writing and filming it. Duh.

Hee.
