Episode 11 : a non-seasonal episode

Being the person I am, instead of posting something nice and festive to greet you into the new year, I post this.

Happy New Year!

episode 10 : the inevitable christmas episode

While I was making this episode, the cameraperson asked some questions that you might yourself ask . among them were :
 - If you don't have much time to film, why are you wasting time telling us?
 - Why are you filming a Christmas episode on Christmas eve?
 - Why are you filming this in literally the only - seriously, only - room in your house that has no Christmas stuff?
 - Why is your password "guess" ?

Unfortunately, I don't have the answer to these questions. If I did, maybe I wouldn't be sat here writing this post on Christmas Eve.

Happy Christmas, everyone.

Episode 9 : Shoes and Ballgowns

I'm sorry I'm late, but you have to admit that there is a certain irony to the fact that I'm late posting a video about Cinderella.
If you watch this before midnight ...

actually, don't get your hopes up. nothing particular will happen. It'll just be kinda nice.
Do I really need to say it?  The password is "guess".

Also, I don't think a christmas video will be possible. :)

Episode 8 : books and movies

I'm so so so sorry I'm late.
Internet problems.

episode 8 : the book is ALWAYS better than the movie from ThegirlfromAnkyra on Vimeo.

Sorry again.

Episode 7 : More and more doctor who

If I'm ever allowed to be emotional or any other word for it, it's about Doctor Who.

Back in a Flash!
(Bit anticlimactic I guess, plus a lie, but hey, I just watched the latest episode of the Flash, so ... )

Episode 6 : A rant that you can agree or disagree with

This is an opinion. A fairly strong one. Please don't kill me if you disagree.

Oh, and also ; in the video, I say millions of people murder me. I'm not being pretentious, just using a hyperbole as a figure of speech. And before you ask, a hyperboles are exaggerations to create emphasis or effect. As a literary device, hyperbole is often used in poetry, and is frequently encountered in casual speech. Look it up. I'm trying not to be a hypocrite.

Episode 6 : A rant about the reaction to fairly good books from ThegirlfromAnkyra on Vimeo.

Not exactly a christmas episode

Two things :

First, I know it's November, but still, when your nearby shopping center is playing tinny versions of Christmas carols you love and amazon is bombarding your inbox with black friday and Christmas deals, it tends to get annoying pretty quickly.

Second : it is stirrup Sunday this weekend, so a video about Christmas traditions ... Why not ?

And a merry not yet Christmas season to everyone.

Episode 4 : Horror movies and surviving them

It's not Halloween. I should really get better at timing these videos.
Gotta go, the phones ringing.
Oh, and the password is "guess", like usual.

Sorry 'bout that. Anyway, have a *spooky* day.


This won't work. I can't do the cheesy *spooky* thing, let aone on writing.  Just ignore that last line, it didn't work. Which begs the question as to why I don't just backspace it.
Hey ...

Why world wars alliteration something or other.

Remember Remember
 the fifth of November
Gunpowder, Treason and ... Not.

So in todays video, there is no Guy Fawkes, no V for Vendetta, no Paddington Bear and no Doctor Who adventure games.
I didn't forget Guy Fawkes night as such, just made this video a long time ago so didn't realise that it would get published today. So no fireworks.
The password is, as always, "guess"

episode 3 : Why WW1 is so much better with genetically engineered whales from ThegirlfromAnkyra on Vimeo.



Happy fifth of november. Remember to burn those Guys!

Episode 2 : go check the video for the title

I guess this is where I make some Halloween related puns, or quote a horror film or something. Oh wait, I got it : once you watch this video, you have seven days to share it with someone or something really funny won't happen. Dunno what this thing is though.

The password is "guess".

episode 2 : the reason why some characters shouldn't be killed off. Also, happy halloween. from ThegirlfromAnkyra on Vimeo.


I know : On the day of the dead, when the year too dies,
                 Must the youngest open the oldest hills
                 Though the door of the birds where the breeze breaks
                 There fire shall fly from the raven boy
                 And the silver eyes that see the wind
                 And light shall have the harp of gold.

Take that as you will : A warning, an interesting story, or a great book quote for Halloween.

How a Female Doctor would Be ... I'm not going through all that again. Hopefully it'll be in the video

The video says it all.

Intro ( not very imaginative, I know, but that's what this is)
