Holiday within a holiday...

So we've taken a week off to recover from our three week holiday in the UK... Thomas and Ellie have both slept until 8am for the last two days which means MC and I have also finally recovered!
One of the the strange things about emigrating is we have jumped series forward on all of the U.S. TV shows we (or more accurately MC) follows. Not a problem for all of the various incarnations of CSI with their absurdly smug investigators, nor for E.R. (drivel) or Without a Trace (which I actually like). We have now, however, taken to watching Lost, which had just started on C4 when we left, a proper (if somewhat stupid) serial about a plane crash that we could never pick up a series in. So we've rented the 24 episode box set for a week - a tough task - watching 24 hours of TV in a week after the kids have gone to bed! It's not hard to see that we haven't done much this week!
Everyone in Lost is stranded on an island - the men all have stubble as you would expect, but it's not getting any longer... Surely they should turn into beards?
