I am very big fan of comedy and television-past and present
I can usually tell which TV show is going to work out or if it will be cancelled after one series for example: 'The Street' a new BBC 1 drama in my opinion is the BBC just trying to make their own better version of 'Coronation Street' with well-known British stars

Acting for sure. I'm a wannabee freshman actor and I'm proud of it! ;D Had I the technology, I'd for sure participate in the various redubs on this site. Writing is another thing that I enjoy. I write a lot of poetry nowadays. I also like storytelling and improv (kinda like writing, isn't it?). I've been woodworking for a couple of years now. Right now I'm actually making stations and stuff for my wooden Thomas layouts. ;D I love reading. I'm not a big fan of many modern books, but I love reading classics (to me, the Railway Series is a classic). I've loved playing with legos for most of my short life. It keeps the kid alive in me, like Thomas does. I'm a Star Wars geek. I've read just about everything in the EU except for the new Jedi Order series. Really, I don't know how it could compare to the Thrawn Trilogy. Video games are fun, but they aren't the most important thing in my life. At least I hope they aren't. Mostly I like Star Wars games (KOTOR, Jedi Outcast), Mario, Fire Emblem, and the Halo's. I love movies, but just like books, I prefer the classics to modern movies.

My other interests are Final Fantasy as I really enjoying playing through each game as you can do many different things each time you play it, I also like the animé of it which is called Final Fantasy Unlimited as the story to it is good, also the movies The Spirits Within which sadly didn't do do well in Cinema's & Advent Children which is the long awaited sequel to Final Fantasy VII. I collect figurines of the characters from every game and they fill about four shelfs in my bedroom, when I get the time I will take some photographs of them and post them up. Animé is another one on my list as I prefer a lot of Japanese cartoons to English one's, I own about 20 to 25 DVD's so far, here are some that I own Yu-Gi-Oh! The Movie, Spirited Away & Steam Boy. Photography has became one of my highest interests this year as I have done a Level 1 course in this field at College and have enjoyed learing the different tecniques while using digital photography and programs like Photoshop & Image Ready. Indy/Rock Music as I listen to these genre's most commonly. I listen to bands like Aerosmith, Franz Ferdinand, Kaiser Cheifs & Metallica as these bands are brilliant. I do like some Pop/Dance/Emo but not a lot, some examples being Girls Aloud, My Chemical Romance & Angel City. TUGS as this is simular to Thomas & Friends and is brilliant the stories, characters and music are excellent. I don't own much TUGS merchandise apart from 3 videos and the ERTL models of Ten Cents & Sunshine. Reading as it helps to relax me at times I enjoy reading Manga's, Fantasy tails and of course The Railway Series as they are my most favourite.

I like a good Mystery TV Series. To be completely honest though, I'm more intrigued in mysteries about private detectives that solve the cases with a little help from their assistants, rather than a mystery series about a whole group of people that solve the case together. In short, I prefer shows like 'Murder, She Wrote', 'The Rockford Files', and 'Poirot' over shows like 'CSI', 'Law & Order', and 'NYPD Blue'.
I'm also interested in:
Conan O' Brian
Curb Your Enthusiasm
Jim Carrey
Monty Python
Robin Williams
Seinfeld
Three's Company

I really like watching The Apprentice. Sure, every episode is like a advertisment for a product of some sort but it just seems to ease my mind. I like Phil of the Future, as well. It's the only show I watch on Disney Channel. Other than that, I consider myself an ice hockey fan. My favorite teams are the Devils, Red Wings and Stars.

Hmmmm
Charlie Chalk I wasn't a huge fan of this series in my youth but when i encountered Alaric's 'Rusty & the Boulder' Redub which featured several Charlie Chalk scenes, i became intrigued, upon buying the complete series, i fell in love with it and nowadays can't imagine what my life would have been like without Mr. Chalk
Comedy Ranging from 'Hancock's Half Hour', 'Hitchhikers' 'Filthy,Rich & Catflap' 'Monty Python' and such like
Neil Diamond Whom i consider to be the greatest musical artist in existence, I've not yet encountered one song of his which i consider to be awful, you don't get much better than that.
BBC2 Idents Anyone who has checked out my YouTube videos will know that i love the classic BBC2 Idents, the newer ones are not up to scratch in my opinion, by the way my favourite is Paint but Steam is absolutely beautiful.

I consider myself a fangirl of Thomas, Star Wars and the Legend of Zelda.
I'm also a fan (just normal fan) of trains, particularly if pulled by a British Steam locomotive (cowcatchers and bells are silly!), the Star Fox series, some manga and anime (Strawberry Panic is the latest one I got into), and I also enjoy faeries, mermaids and other mythical creatures, and finally, Nintendo.
And then I'm just plain interested in psychic/paranormal abilities.

My biggest interest is Final Fantasy and has been for quite some time. I got into this through playing Final Fantasy VII on Play Station and have continued on to Final Fantasy XII. I also like the movie that were released, alas The Spirits Witin didn't prove popular but I though it was brilliant, Advent Children goes with out saying the animation was brilliant and story really was impressive.
I like Anime and have done since the first series of Pokemon and moved onto others like Naruto, Yu-Gi-Oh! and Full Metal Alchemist. I like how each cartoon has their own feature that can help make them stand out to many others.
I like Art and Photography. Since I child I have always loved to draw things and see what I can improve upon. I got into Photography quite more since doing LV1 Photography at college last year and go out and take photographs of Railways when I have the chance (& batteries).
I like Reading quite a lot as it's a very relaxing, I normally read comic book stuff which is really cool, Manga's as they are anime but in book form plus the comedy in some is funny, The Railway Series goes without saying it's just class, Real Railway books looking into Railways around the world and in the UK.
Thomas The Tank Engine & TUGS fo without saying as they will alway be very cool.

Might as well post a few of mine. I'm a hardcore coin collector. Mainly American coins, but my collection includes some from at least 30 different nations. It's loads of fun once you get into it. If you are holding a coin that was made in 1798, imagine the types of people who may have held it before you. I am also a fan of lighthouses. I collect replicas of them, and I am even a tour guide in one during the summer months. Nothing like having a 170 foot tower entirely to yourself! Other hobbies of mine include playing poker (Texas Hold 'Em, Omaha, and 7 card stud), shooting pool, learning about US Presidents, and figuring what else I would like to start collecting.
