WATCHING HOLLYWOOD FILMS ON TELEVISION

Carey Mulligan has done Hollywood film productions.  Not only did she shot to fame with the film An Education, but she also has done Wall Street:  Money Never Sleeps,  Public Enemies, the Greatest, and the latest film version of the Great Gatsby (There were also film adaptations of the Great Gatsby in 1926, 1949, 1974 and 2000).  Carey Mulligan also played Sally Sparrow in the Doctor Who television episode Blink in 2007.  David Tennet, who played the tenth incarnation of Doctor Who and Frema Agyeman (Who played Alesha Phillips on Law and Order UK) as Doctor Martha Jones played a brief cameo appearance in their own television series while 95% of the episode was anchored by Carey Mulligan's performance as Sally Sparrow.  Poor Sally Sparrow tried really hard to be a private investigator only to have her female sidekick Kathy Nightengale (Lucy Gaskell) permenently time traveled to death by the Weeping Angels monsters.  Not only that, but her possible opposite gender love interest Billy Shipton (Michael Obiora) was also time traveled to death by the same Weeping Angels monsters.  And all her dvd films have the same weird hidden easter eggs with cryptic messages from the tenth incarnation of the Doctor (David Tennet) directly only to her.  Does that mean that Sally Sparrow (Carey Mulligan) and Larry Nightengale (Finlay Robertson) will be future crime fighting sidekicks of Doctor Who someday?  I'm not sure.  It would be nice, but it isn't up to me.  Still, it's fantastic to see Carey Mulligan's brief first and only appearance in the legendary science fiction television series Doctor Who---Even if it's only one episode long.




















































































Anyway, I'm also going job hunting too.  I'm still unemployed, but I'm not giving up.  I'll be employed again.  There is a light at the end of the long dark tunnel.
