Right, i am currently watching a program with the stupidest setting and premise that it makes me a bit mad. It's called 'Wallander' which is apparently a famous Swedish fiction crime series.
The programme's set in Sweden right, with Swedish murder detectives working in Stockholm i think, on a serious case. There's been more dead bodies than i've seen in any Die Hard movie and this thing is really dramatic and the story has actually got pretty sweet, they're cracking onto a global terrorist network based in Sweden who are gonna steal all the money in the world.
Anyway, my problem with it is, that everyone on the show is meant to be Swedish, yet they're all talking Queen's English. No Swedish, no Swedish accent, just British English. It's stupid, the guy opens his email up and reads it and it's in Swedish but he reads it in British English.
They pulled up in this farm earlier to pick up a hacker kid, and this farmer guy shouts in an east london accent, ''oy mate, what the bloody hell do you think you're doin'?!''. It's weird cos i'm from east london and Nicole's from sweden, so it's like this programme was kinda made with us in mind. It's good cos it gives me an excuse to mention her every 5 mins as she's from that lovely country and i'm sure she'd be equally as wound up about this as well.
Thing is, it makes the police in Sverige look terrible, this guy is the worse cop i've ever seen. So i hope i don't get into trouble when i'm dropped in Vasteras on my own on the 19th cos these guys look rubbish.
Anyways, gotta get my presentation done tomorrow, cos i want a couple of days to practice it.
I think i'm gonna give my presentation in blog form, as i seem to think more clearly when i write on here, so get ready for a nice long talk about Carbohydrate Ingestion at Altitude soon.
I know you'll love it.
Night kids xXx
