  1. Do you know what would be absolute awesome? A Casa Mika tour! 😁 Combining the atmosphere and energy of a Mika concert with everything he also did on the TV show, but do it on a big stage (arena stages maybe?) now that's something I would love to see! Especially if Mika dug out the set pieces from Casa Mika to put on stage and had special guests along with him too AND he could interact with the audience more and get people up on stage with him, not only to sing but take part in fun activities too! Oh just thinking about something like this has me...
  2. Shame it's not tomatoes, I would trade you a potato for a tomato seeing as the supermarkets don't have any!
  3. I'm currently feeling rather excited about something! But I can't really say what about until next Tuesday... 👀
  4. Yes, it's not recent, I'd seen a comment somewhere from a Lang Lang fan who saw them last year. Mika trying to fool us again!
  5. Your post has done something strange to the thread Deb! This is what it looks like for me I'll also leave recording/downloading to others. But I can get ep1 with English subtitles if anyone is interested!
  6. I think with dailymotion there would be a copyright issue with sharing the episodes publicly. Deb might have recorded it and hopefully share on YouTube (unlisted), I am also going to see if I can get it too, probably in the morning, I'm mainly seeing if I can get the file size smaller though.
  7. I saw the security guard standing near the front (is that who you mean?), he looked confused for a moment there! If anyone gets a good quality screenshot of Mika peeping through the curtain can you please share it here? His little face had me in stitches! 🤣
  8. In all seriousness though, that was a great episode! The emotional impact has gone up a level from last week and it's like I can feel that emotion running through every note the pianists played. I loved how Mika and Lang Lang described how a piano can be someone's voice. Playing an instrument can sometimes be the only way people can express themselves in a more open and truthful way and it's really beautiful to see. At the start Mika said the people of Leeds are warm people and he's always surprised by something in Leeds, I hope he means that too for all Yorkshire folk! (Next time you're in Leeds Mika, hop on the train that comes to my town, only 25 mins away!) Also I love that Claudia always describes Mika as a world renowned performer! Can more people in the media do that please and not only think if him as "that guy who sings Grace Kelly"?.
  9. No I'm not crying, you are! I just have early Spring allergies...
  10. In Episode 1 of The Piano, when Harry started playing, Mika made a comment along the lines of "There should be balloons attached to the piano and he can float in the air like in Up." This implies that Mika has seen the Disney movie Up. But maybe he wasn't watching properly because it's a house with balloons attached not a piano! I wouldn't be surprised if Mika has seen the movie though, it's such an uplifting (excuse the pun!) and heartwarming story and one of my favourites by Disney.
  11. Impressed you know that but not the names! Bad Man is just that, he's bad with a bad attitude too. Good thing is I haven't seen him in a long time and I actually think he might have abandoned his house... Raided house lady is a sweet old lady who moved into the very top house on the street a couple of weeks after a police raid. I just happened to be walking my dog when it happened too! She's probably got nothing to do with what happened but I can't help let my imagination wander and then wonder if she's a secret gangster granny! He has one? Or he looks like one? Alpaca Man may well have moved, I haven't seen him for a while either. He was always cheery and would say hello, his house will be forever be known as the Alpaca House! As for where the name came from it was a Freudian slip by my Mum! I remember she said something like "I saw that nice man with the alpaca again today." And the name has stuck ever since! (he had a tall skinny jack russel terrier! )
  12. Anyone else not know their neighbours by name but you do know the animals/pets names instead? Just me? This has lead to me giving people in my neighbourhood rather unusual nicknames (which of course they are unaware of ), simply because I don't know their real names 😅 The nicknames are: - Lady at 17 - Man in the White House - The Sisters - Bad Man - Baseball Cap Man - Chihuahua Man - Beagle Lady - Alpaca Man - That Guy with The Westie - Raided house lady - Liverpool Household Realising now they sound like really lazy villain names from a low budget comic book 😅
  13. Ok my fault, it should say Mikafingers! Still, I think you're in a state of Mikaguttermind!
  14. Some of the words here are hilarious! I particularly like Mikafingered, that is something I can relate to... Mikamikamikamika 😁
  15. I feel like this needs it's own definition! Snarflabble /snɑːf 'labble/ verb INFORMAL. MADE-UP To consume something very quickly or greedily which then leads to a sudden state of overwhelming excitement and giddiness. e.g "They snarflabbled up Mika's new music and become so overjoyed with excitement that nothing could distract them from it." Maybe one day we should write a whole new dictionary of made up words! 😁
  16. That's a good point. We could end up with too many threads that are all rather similar to one another 😅 I think this thread was originally meant for general random chat anyway, not just random words... I'm looking at you @Hero!
  17. Go for it! I'm all for anything that makes my day more positive (that's actually part of my New Year's resolution for this year!). I have a general day to day diary but I also keep a Happiness Journal which is just for all the things that make me happy. And it literally can be anything from seeing a dog wagging its tail to hearing a favourite song on the radio. I should really update my journal though because the main thing in it at the moment is my report of seeing Mika in London last year! So maybe a thread here would help remind me to write more often!
  18. He is finally safe at your home!!! He looks perfect within your collection too! 😊
  19. This has just reminded me of something else that could be a little naughty! In the first episode Claudia describes Mika and Lang Lang as "secret squirrels", Lang Lang then replied by saying "yes, give us some nuts!" Oh Lang Lang, you had to say that in front of Mika?!
  20. Emphasis on the "should" (it might take a while) and even if I get the episodes would I be allowed to post them directly here or would it be easier with a shared file or youtube? or @dcdeb do you plan on recording them all, are you ok to continue doing that?
  21. I get why it's blocked due to copyright from Channel 4 but you'd think this would also affect other countries, anyway I'm glad people outside the UK have been able to watch it. (I can only see this video if I use a VPN 🙃) Once the entire series has aired I should be able to get all episodes in good quality, no ads and clean opening/ending. I'll have a go at making a google drive for them! Earlier when I said Fiona was my favourite, her original piece was definitely my favourite from that episode, but of course Harry stole my heart! So sad to see that his wife died, I've had a family member with dementia and Harry's story really touched me. It was moving and heartwarming.
  22. What a beautiful first episode! My personal favourite was Fiona, but all of the contestants were amazing! There wasn't one that I didn't like. Loving it and can't wait for next week now!
  23. This is a great interview, thanks for finding it and sharing! They say he did the interview through a video call, they could have taken some screenshots! I'd love to have seen him with his unstyled messy curly hair! Also I never knew this: "In 2015, he voiced French-language animation film The Prophet" How did I miss that?! I won't go off topic here about it, I'll ask more in the Looking for Something thread 🙂
