This month you've been voting on all your favourites of 2008, from the best shows to your number one celebrities. I've been announcing the winners this week, and today I'm revealing who takes the crown for favourite British TV show of 2008. We've been treated to some fab series this year featuring great home-grown talent, from comedies like Gavin & Stacey to dramas like Secret Diary Of A Call Girl and the high-concept Lost In Austen. 
I can't help but gravitate toward vintage gadgets (I am the founding member of the Vintage Geek group, you know), so mash-ups of old and new stuff is something I'm totally into.
This particular skin from Gelaskin ($15) tugged at my heartstrings, mostly because it reminded me of my first boombox that I carried around with me to sleepovers, my backyard, and even a few times to school (my teachers were not pleased with that last location).
I'm kinda digging this skin for my iPhone, but I'm not sure I could handle it taking up permanent residence there.

I love my laptop (but not in a creepy way), but sometimes I wish I could spruce up the exterior as much as the interior (colorful wallpaper, fun icons, and so on). Rather than spend money I don't have on a fashionable laptop like the Vivienne Tam Notebook, I've decided to get more creative with the laptop I already have.
For $28, I can get one of these special limited-edition Artist Series Laptop Skins, which measure 15.4 inches — making it the perfect fit for my MacBook Pro.

So I've asked you about your favourite reality series, and I've asked you about your favourite soap, but now it's time to ask you about your favourite British TV Show! We've shortlisted some of the best of this year from our Pop Watch faves Gavin & Stacey, Skins, Lost In Austen and Secret Diary Of A Call Girl as well as Doctor Who and Spooks. For our Best of 2008 series I'd love to know which one you like the most, so tell me — which is your favourite British TV show?
Mitch Hewer's new project Britannia High is starting on ITV very shortly, featuring original music written by Gary Barlow, Mark Owen, Guy Chambers and others, as well as appearances from Adam Garcia and Matt Willis as well as members of Girls Aloud and Boyzone. The show is set in a stage school and follows six good-looking teen students as they cope with everything that's thrown their way!
While the images suggest High School Musical, the trailer has a cleaned-up, abstract Skins meets The Biz feel to it, although perhaps that's just because of Mitch's dancing — either way I'm looking forward to seeing what the show has to offer. 
I go in and out of liking laptop skins; sometimes they can look cheap and dumb, and sometimes they're done right and end up looking so adorable that I want to buy a whole series. Making a good case for the latter scenario is this Tree Laptop Skin ($19).
It would make your laptop so cute and distinctive that no one would mistake your MacBook for theirs while you were up getting your third coffee at Starbucks.
