I hadn't seen that before, that was great!

A little while ago the was a co-prouction between Ros na Rún and the Welsh soap Pobol y Cwm. Did you see it?

Ah, no I didn't! Maybe it will be on again soon.

Speaking of subtitles...Bravo has lately taken to showing the English version of my favorite show (Queer Eye for the Straight Guy) on Wednesday nights. What's funny is, about half of it is subtitled! I think it's hilarious! It makes sense to "translate" English slang terms for us Americans, but really...the accents aren't so different that we can't follow what they're saying when they're just deciding on which sofa to buy!
