On Friday, I stayed inside in honour of Friday being the height of the weeks television; a night of a double bill of Coronation Street, an episode of Hustle, and Stella. Wow. Some may accuse me of nerdish ways, but nothing beats rushing down the stairs at 7.30pm precisely to catch the opening theme signalling the arrival of those glorious cobbles. After two very digestible half an hour blasts of life in the street - broken up with a 30 minute gap in between - you find yourself at 9.00pm, and facing a dilemma.
This dilemma, is that Hustle and Stella, the two hour long features that make up the rest of your Friday night equation, start at that exact time. How do you find a way around this? Well of course, by exercising the power presented to you by the investment that is Sky+! The way we tend to handle the situation, is by setting Stella to record while you let the Hustle gang make your brain function more than any average school week. So, after a total mind frazzling due to attempting to keep up with the successful scandals of Hustle, you know that its time to pay a visit to Tylerstown.
This total change of location, characters and scenarios is rather welcome, yet still equally entertaining. The adventures of reborn Ruth Jones (creator of Gavin & Stacey - recognisable as Nessa) and catch up with the unlikely mishaps of her comedic locals. By now, it is 11pm and sleep sounds a very sensible idea, but of course Fifa may tempt you.
Saturday arrives, the morning is passed by a shower, cleaning the room and blasting a cd very loud until the strike of midday when it is time to brave the weather and congregate with fellow town seekers. Laughs and fun are chased for the majority of the day, then I headed home accompanied by Dec, a friend who is staying over. We eat, watch Saturday night TV, a film and then spend the rest of the night on the PS3.
Sunday is easily the most relaxed and laidback day, as it consists of listening to A LOT of music, playing Fifa and accomplishing whatever bits of overstanding homework there may be. So folks, that is what I did this weekend, hope you enjoyed reading it and I apologise for it being so lengthy. What did you do this weekend? Drop a comment below!
