[QUOTE="Mel O'Drama, post: 303316, member: 23"] Last evening I took a peek at the first episode of [B][I]Miriam and Alan: Lost In Scotland[/I][/B]. It was wonderful. There's a great energy between the two of them. While there are little flickers of Miriam finding Alan's enthusiasm a bit wearisome sometimes, it's also very plain that they enjoy each other's company and find one another entertaining. I adored how supportive Miriam was when Alan went back to the childhood home where he'd been abused by his father, and I found the entire sequence very moving. Equally, Alan seemed very protective towards Miriam as though she's a surrogate mother or favourite Aunt. He was very chivalrous, from doing all the driving (because Miriam can't drive a manual) to emptying Miriam's huge poos out of the loo to pushing her round in her wheelchair to helping her in and out of the caravenette: I find Alan very likeable with his dimples, his cheeky grin and his cheery disposition. Post [I]The High Life [/I](which I loved) I'm shamefully out of touch with his career (the only things in which I recall seeing him are [I]X2[/I] and[I] Romy and Michele's High School Reunion[/I]). Perhaps I need to remedy this. Everything discussed in the interviews above was in this first episode: from the "Alium" tartan to Miriam talking about her love for Lady Gaga and ticking Alan off for being frightened of Madonna. This is great, because it means the following episodes will be a complete surprise. [/QUOTE]
