My vet was a bit put out last week when I suggested that there wasn't a lot of difference between him and his six year old son, but really he was just six years old but taller grin I have to admit that I totally identify with Sheldon wanting to answer all the questions on the quiz show. I suspect that I may never have been much of a team player.

Hello Deeda, I think a lot of small boys are like Sheldon, its not a problem if they are under 12!
I still love the episode where Penny paints his sofa cushion - the look on his face as he states 'It dosn't feel right' is just like a toddler.

I've loved The Big Bang Theory ever since the beginning. I may have watched too much because my grandson is sometimes worryingly like Sheldon - is this evolution in action? grin

If you liked that you'd probably like Bluestone.

MASH now there's another great comedy. I said to DH the other day, that's one program that does need repeating

I've been watching a programme called Bluestone 42; an unlikely comedy about a bomb disposal unit in Afghanistan. Described as Mash meets Blackadder meets Miranda. It's on BBC3.

We love it. I read that it has led to a rise in the number of children studying physics at A level.

I've heard it being called "Friends with Geeks" smile. Sheldon lately has been getting on my nerves. I like Raj!

I have the boxed sets and watch them whenever I need cheering up - I agree Sheldon is brilliant!

OH is addicted to it! - it is often on in the background. It is quite witty.
