I've always remembered that tale from the shooting of Velvet Goldmine. There were Christian Bale and Ewan McGregor stuck atop a very cold rooftop on a very cold English night, filming a sex scene which naturally required a bit of a shortage of insulating clothing. The film crew were some distance away so the director had to shout directions to his two shivering stars. Unsurprisingly one time the lads started the scene as instructed and kept going, and going, and going, started to get extremely chilly, before finally realising they'd been had and broke off to look across the icy abyss to see the film crew pissing themselves laughing.

So judging from one reported anecdote from John Barrowman's impending autobiography, the sense of humour of film crews hasn't changed one bit. Thank god. Whilst not as raunchy as Velvet Goldmine, it is still a SPOILER for TW series 2 for anyone who hasn't seen the first three official trailers/ep 1 teaser. )

In conclusion, T minus 6 hours and 19 minutes...

Typically LJ wouldn't let me log on, so painful when you want to squee and there's no-one to share it with.

Anyway I did the washing up, had a shower, and now I'm planning to run back into the sitting room every now and then to catch the best bits of the BBC3 repeat currently on.

At the moment, my main sentiment is... I love Owen. No. Seriously. There was a promo for the whole series after the ep finished, and Owen? Stole the show with one single line :)

ETA: just rewatched the last part of the trailer for the second time. Owen's line is still made of win, but there was also another scene which I didn't properly notice first time that has also happily melted me. Oh I am so so glad my show is back! =)

ETA2: Very vague SPOILERS for the ep in the comments.
