TV

I saw the live action Simpsons opening sequence on Sky One earlier as a trailer.

Either this wasn't a fan thing, commissioned by Sky and leaked on the net a few weeks early or it was and Sky bought it.

I knew something was wrong. Just watched it again and Homer drives what looks like an old Rover but with left-hand steering and Marge a volvo with right-hand steering. Tiny detail, though. The detail I could have done without was Homer's builder's bum.

Yeah I know, I was just nitpicking.

Funnily enough I must have watched it pretty intently to notice that about the cars but must have zoned out when Homers arse came on screen.

It's called a defense mechanism. ;o)

If I remember correctly from when I saw this on TV the other day, it's a Lada, not a Rover.

I bow to your superior knowledge of cars.
It's definitely a crap car. ;o)
That said, the Lada Nova is a superb and nigh indestructible 4x4. It might look shit and not be very comfy but it can deal with anything. All you need is a potato.

You are probably talking about a Lada Niva (not Nova). I apologise for pedantry. :-p

D'oh, yes you're right. I really shouldn't type today. Good thing my actual work today is being proofread...
