velo army Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 (edited) Miss Honey wasn't played by Sarah Paulson, but was in fact played by an actress called Embeth Davidtz. I was watching Bicentennial Man and was quite enjoying watching the lovely Sarah being her charming, Miss Honey-esque self when I decided to check the cast for the name of another actor. Genuinely thought that Sarah Paulson had changed her name in a Zowie Bowie to Duncan Jones sort of way. Embeth Davidtz Sarah Paulson Ok maybe they don't look quite so alike here, but I had just assumed they were the same person.

Boghead ranter Posted April 24 Share Posted April 24 When the new people were changing the name of Green's Playhouse in Glasgow to The Apollo, the new name was chosen based on the quoted cost of £250 per letter for the external signage. Apollo was the most viable name which was also affordable. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CityDave94 Posted Saturday at 07:36 Share Posted Saturday at 07:36 Walked passed the Baptist Church yesterday and out of the corner of my eye I read the sign that sits out front as 'He is a kitten'. When I looked directly at the sign it read as it has always has done 'He has risen'. It was on my mind for the rest of the day. Did I suddenly see things as they really are? I mean cats watch us and the pass judgement on our behaviour all the time, God's own living security cameras? Or should I just get a decent pair of glasses? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin Bacon's Game of Fame - Kevin Bacon's Game of Fame - BBC Sounds Recommend looking up the Erdős–Bacon number as well. That combines a person's degree of separation from Kevin Bacon with their degree of separation from mathematician Paul Erdős. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
