Sorry, I'm laughing so hard I gotta speak just one more time:
When I took the test I came out The Operative, a mean-lookin' black dude with more than a passing resemblance to Yaphet Kotto in Live and Let Die. This confused me.
Then I watched Film 2005 (THE British film review TV show) and realized this was a character (not the in TV show??) who was tracking River to return her to the Government.
OK, but strange, I don't usually come out that way in quizzes.
Then, Jonathan Ross segued into the next film review: of Kinky Boots, something you probably won't ever see Stateside. It's a comedy based on the true story of a family shoe factory having to close -- until they decide to save it by making spike-heeled thigh boots for transvestites. (I have seen these very boots, there's at least three stores in Brighton that specialize.)
I had already seen an interview about it on the news this morning -- with the black actor who plays the drag queen who advises on the boots. Guess what? Yep, The Operative. Much more my style. I laughed my socks off.
