A rare moment of calm in the main hallway outside the room for the big panels

The Yips beamed down again to investigate

As well as the Meeping Angels, a Gallifrey One tradition based on the noise made by Beaker the Muppet, although this year they were handing out "Obey the Meep" ribbons

My friend Mab from LI Who did 2 great Cally cosplays from Blake's 7 and kept finding other B7 cosplayers since some of the actors were here, and pulled out a new Leela cosplay. She only started making costumes a year ago.

One Servalan cosplayer with a lizard-bedecked gown that was onscreen for all of 5 seconds looks stern with an Avon escort, while another in Servalan's fab red dress chats with Brian Croucher (actor for Travis #2) at the bar

13 Book Questions!

Tagged by @gnomer-denois

1) Last book you read:

Bloodhound, Tamora Pierce

A very nice reread.

2) A book you recommend:

Alanna: The First Adventure, Tamora Pierce

Lovely lovely YA fantasy novel

3) A book you couldn't put down:

The Will of the Many, James Islington

A very fascinating book with super cool world building

4) A book you've read twice (or more):

Genuinely too many to count, but for the sake of this, I'm saying Ancillary Justice, Ann Leckie

5) A book on your TBR:

The Traitor, Baru Cormorant by Seth Dickinson

This has been on my TBR for years and I haven't gotten around to it. I will eventually

6) A book you've put down:

Gwen and Art Are Not in Love, Lex Croucher

I just really hated the characters and story in this one. I know a lot of people liked it, but I thoroughly did not.

7) A book on your wishlist

At the moment, I don't have anything up there

8) Favorite book from childhood

Probably the entirety of the Inheritance Cycle. I recently read Murtagh and I need to go read the rest of the Alagaesia books

9) A book you would give to a friend:

I would give (and have given) friends a copy of Joy Demorra's Hunger Pangs. It's a very fun book.

10) The most books you own by a single author

Brian Jacques' Redwall series

I believe I own at least 11 Redwall books, potentially the majority of the series. Another childhood favorite.

11) A nonfiction book you own:

Total Cat Mojo, Jackson Galaxy

It was $3 at a used bookstore. Hard to pass up

12) What are you currently reading?

Mastiff, Tamora Pierce and In the Hand of the Goddess, Tamora Pierce

Mastiff is the book on my phone, In the Hand is my physical book for reading at work

(I'm on a Tamora Pierce kick right now)

13) What are you planning on reading next?

Oh probably more Tamora Pierce. I think I'll go for the Kel books next or perhaps the Daine books. Depends on which is available first at the library

Tagging: @pomrania @wei--wuxian @thekingsbutler @denizenhardwick @hazelspade and whoever else wants to!

The BBC also did a version of Treasure Island in 1977 that had Patrick Troughton as Israel Hands, so in "You don't need to cast these things, the BBC will have done it for you..." (It also features Brian Croucher and David Collings as John Hunter & Blind Pew, with a B7 bonus of the other Travis, Stephen Greif as Job Anderson, was adapted by John Lucarotti and directed by Michael E. Briant.)

Re. Wuthering Heights (in the category of "actually so will ITV"), there's a 1998 version with Peter Davison as Lockwood (the first narrator, an outsider), so there's also that. :-)

Classic Who Casting game:

Treasure Island? (Any character)

Oh I said I would do this and then I never did, did I? (I said I'd recast a character from anything as someone from Classic Who.) It was harder than I thought.

Anyway Treasure Island has a kind-hearted, responsible doctor on the expedition, don't they, so it's got to be Harry Sullivan. He'd suit the costumes, too.

(Wikipedia tells me that Dr. Livesey has in fact been played by Julian Glover, so there's that.)
