Foyle's War S02E04 - The Funk Hole by Anthony Horowitz

Celebrating 20 years of Foyle's War 🍾

This is the first episode of Foyle's War I ever saw and still one of my favourites. I can't believe it's 20 years ago today.

This series changed my life (quite literally, as I sit here in a foreign country married to a fellow FW fan with a house and a dog together 😍)

Production snaps for Accolade, of which HW is one of the leads.

I'm rather keen on that Tartan ensemble.

And really wishing I could think of a good reason to ditch life and go, really for HW only.

Ok @paulinedorchester here you go.

Honeysuckle Weeks. Actress. Posh. You remember. Frightfully good as uptight Samantha Stewart in Foyle's War. Bit of a rackety personal life. Then she disappeared. Damn shame, really. But - look! - suddenly she's back. Every little bit of her.

"When I told my father I'd been cast in the musical version of Calendar Girls, his first response was

'We'll have to get you a tit job then!"" cries Weeks.

"I had to explain to him that it's not about showing off perfect bodies. It's more like the Japanese art of kintsugi where broken vases are mended with molten gold - and it's the cracks that make it truly beautiful and unique. At this stage in life aren't we all broken vases?"

Weeks, 44, is keenly aware of falling headlong into her own deep fissures, but we shall come to that shortly. Today lean and soigné, wearing a One Hundred Stars peignoir, she is casually elegant despite being worryingly hoarse after a cast night out at a Greek restaurant where there was dancing and plate smashing, washed down by liberal quantities of Retsina.

She is happily sharing a dressing room with two of her co-stars, Maureen Nolan (69) and Marti Webb (79), doyennes of musical theatre. And her sense of belonging is palpable.

This production, co-written by Gary Barlow and Tim Firth, is a tuneful retelling of the familiar and adored story of how the death of a much-loved husband saw a group of ordinary women in a small Yorkshire Women's Institute set about creating a nude calendar to raise money for charity. Weeks plays Cora, the church organist, a single mother and natural-born rebel.

"I was absolutely thrilled to be asked," says Weeks, who also happens to be a single mother and natural-born rebel. "Of course I said yes immediately, but it was a huge challenge. Not only do I have to sing and get my kit off, I have to do a Yorkshire accent and pretend to play the piano. I thought I might have to learn the organ as well but thank God I could cross that off one of my to-do list."

As far as the stripping goes, Weeks is relieved her character's proverbial coin landed on “tails rather than heads” which is to say no full frontal, but “I am butt naked on stage".

"Everyone is wonderfully supportive," she says. "We all look after one another and make sure nobody's too exposed. I'm not the best singer but I've taken lessons - at every performance the audience laughs uproariously and 99.9 per cent of the time we get a standing ovation, which feels magnificent."

Watching Foyle’s War for the first time. Ian said “she’s getting her Captain Britain on” and now I’m obsessed with this actress playing Captain Britain. Yes and thank you.

The Wicker Tree (2011)

In today's review, I find that this May Day may lead to a religious experience. As I attempt a #positive review of the 2011 folk-horror sequel, The Wicker Tree #GrahamMcTavish #JacquelineLeonard #BrittaniaNicol #HenryGarrett #HoneysuckleWeeks

While it can be somewhat difficult for old-fashioned divinity to prosper in an era of secular ideals and alternative beliefs, that doesn’t stop the devoted from trying to instil their beliefs in the very four corners of the earth. Whether to appease the almighty for their past transgressions or to help purify the masses, the zeal is equally matched by the hardship of the journey. In 2011, with a…

Yasammy Week Day 2 Firsts

I saw people drawing Yaz and Sammy ice skating and tried to think of something southern adjacent idk. @yasammyweek

So technically the first is a first picnic date, but it's more Yaz trying Honeysuckle for the first time cause I think it's cute.

The very slim chance that Yaz hasn't eaten honeysuckles before and Sammy wanted to show her.

(Probably wasn’t a good idea to try out a new style with this event lol)
