[QUOTE="Angela Channing, post: 283381, member: 33"] I wear glasses for reading so I don't need to wear them all the time. I bought a pair off the shelf with pre-fitted lenses for £3 in Lidl to use as a spare for my proper glasses with prescription lenses. They look remarkably similar to Oliver Peoples O'Malley so that's what I'm going to say they are now. :) Yes, that too and it wouldn't matter so much if the savings they made on locations was put into paying for more script editing or employing higher profile actors or just generally improving the final result. Yes, trying to broaden the appeal of the show without thinking about how it might alienate fans of the original series is never a good approach for rebooting a classic TV show. I think parenchyma is great word and conveys precisely what I mean. I have a scientific background so when I use the term with friends who work in the same field as I do, they get exactly what I mean without further explanation. It doesn't work quite so well with those that don't know a lot about biology. That's really interesting. I'm going to have to watch it again one day but [I]that [/I]scene has always made me prefer to watch other episodes before thinking about viewing this one again. Probably the three worst examples of ghastly padding scenes in Columbo, although there maybe others that are so bad that I've tried to forget them. [/QUOTE]
