I don't know why I'm kind of excited for "the Showtime orignal series," Secret Diary of a Call Girl to air on US tv. But seeing Billie Piper on the side of a bus in Los Angeles makes me a little happy. Anyway, a video I haven't seen on Showtime's website, here. Probably NSFW, no naughty bits or anything, though. It looks new. It's BP as Belle talking about hooking and whatnot. And a kinda cute interview with Billie Piper with sort of inane questions and where she can't stop playing with her hair. And one more that is half interview, half trailer.

I get my 'net access and email through my cable provider, so a brief interview with her was actually one of their top news items over the past few days. (Yes, she's pregnant, so everyone can stop arguing over the tabloid speculation.)

There's a really cute publicity shot that is tiny of her in pseudo-Belle mode (and I mean clearly as Belle, but with her current hairstyle), on the phone, that I wish I could find somewhere in a larger format.

You've got mail, by the by.

Is she? I didn't know.

Yep, just saw it (was watching John Adams)... Not sure WHAT i'm going to do now. My instict is to scrap it, pretty much like I did with my last one, and that one WAS done.

Well, I knew about the pregnancy speculation and figured she was but I thought (and still think) that there are perfectly good reasons to not reveal that to the general public immediately. Mind you, I know this all against my will as I have a seething hatred of tabloids and generally prefer not to be exposed to them.

She's made it public now, which means I imagine she's past the first trimester.

I'd accidentally stumbled upon the tabloid speccing while looking for something completely unrelated, and figured while it wasn't unlikely it was also no-one's business until she chose to bring it up herself.

It got mentioned in passing at the end of the piece.

If you've like what you've got, I say continue, but if you want the tone you said you were going for, there just needs to be additions to it.

Dunno WHAT i want. Just something that doesn't suck. Thinking about it is making me cry, which means I need to not think about it for a while. I think i'll go make some lunch.

I've seen it, and yeah I liked it a lot. Too short, though! Put all the pieces of the series together and it's barely feature length.

Found the big version of the picture at billiepiperfan.com, plus one other cute one (there are some very pin-upy ones, but I'm not that fond of her hair as Belle, to be honest).

Oh me too! I'm really very happy that the show is getting the promotion that it should. Showtime is going a great job through that website and through the number of articles I've seem pop up (NY Times, CNN, and a few others). Showtime also has the book version with Billie Piper on the cover (it's pink, so different from the UK re-release.

Oh and that video where she's talking about herself as Belle, the new one, was probably filmed concurrently with the second series. I can't wait till it premieres I'm more than likely going to watch it.

I have yet to see the BP pic on a LA Bus... but I wasn't really looking so maybe I'll pay attention.
