I know that sofa!

[bunn]

Watching the first episode of 'Being Human' last night, my enjoyment of the plot (which was good, though it's not really going anywhere yet so early in the series...) somewhat distracted by one of the sofas in the house shared by the vampire, werewolf and ghost.

It's a rather battered bentwood 3 seater with green slightly embossed cushions.

For many years while I grew up, a bentwood 3 seater sat in our sitting room. A few years before she moved, my Mum had the whole set reupholstered in that same green, slightly embossed looking fabric. When she moved, she didn't have space for the 3-seater, so sold it.

I'm convinced it's the same sofa! Those sofas were never common, and the green fabric was not the original. I'm convinced our family sofa has a new career on telly!

Talk about distant connections to TV shows...

I know. I'm just... so proud!

Will you (or it?) be giving autographs? :-P

Actually, given that fan conventions often feature "third alien from the left, who was briefly glimpsed in one episode of a short-lived TV show" on their all-star guest list, I reckon this should be enough to get you onto the convention circuit. ;-)

Mark refuses to believe it's really our sofa. He says nothing that exciting ever happens. :-(

How very thrilling - my bicycle was once on an episode of Inspector Morse (propped up outside the Bod)but no one was actually SITTING on it... certainly nothing undead!

Tragically, I was unable to concentrate on the dialogue in the scene where Mitchell and George sit on the sofa, because my brain kept interrupting me going :

"THAT'S OUR SOFA!!!!"

My brain sometimes has a short attention span. :-(

I hope the bicycle's starring role was in a scene without too much dialogue...
