Do you remember, back when you
were younger, the first person that you bought a poster of? You know, the one
that took pride of place in your room, the one that never was moved despite
your changing tastes and moods? Yes, good. Then you’ll understand what I think
of Gillian Anderson.
Back to 1993 (seems like another
lifetime, well it was 18 years ago!) the X-files hit the screens and we were
introduced to Agent Dana Scully.
To 11 year old me, Scully was
the perfect woman, she was beautiful, had a strong character, was clever and
was also a geek/nerd. She was my first celebrity crush for sure!
Roll on a few more years and
times have changed, the X-files is no more and the Gillian posters had made way
to more mature and minimalist room layout.
Then a couple of weeks ago I
was told that Gillian was giving a talk at the Rose Theatre in Kingston and
tickets were limited and only £6 each. How could I say no to that! (Thank you
Sian so much for the spare ticket!)
