really glad i got in before the finale tonight so i can get on record making the prediction that
a) Jefferson Grieff mutilated the body and hid his wife’s head because... it wasn’t his wife who was killed. So far, so obvious. *She* killed a woman, or something to that effect, he took the fall and made the body unrecognizable to obscure the actual events so that she could escape and start a new life. Moff’s umpteenth dry run of S5.
b) Janice Fife *IS* Grieff’s wife, in hiding, which is why she has no friends, insists she is a very boring person and won’t do an interview, and is so cool under pressure. “I think everything through” = she for sure helped plan her own murder/coverup hello!! A little bit too tidy, but omg it’s classic Moff. Sets up Tucci and Wells for a fascinating dynamic if this turns into a recurring series thing, which Moff hasn’t ruled out.

RIP BETTY LYNN
1926-2021
Betty Lynn was born as Elizabeth Ann Theresa Lynn in Kansas City, MO. She was best known for her role as Thelma Lou, Deputy Barney Fife's girlfriend, on “The Andy Griffith Show”. Although the series was filmed at Desilu Studios, she never appeared on screen with Lucille Ball. However, her co-stars (Andy Griffith, Fred MacMurray, and Don Knotts) often did. She came to Hollywood in 1948 after appearing on Broadway and did several films, including June Bride with Bette Davis.
She started playing Thelma Lu in March 1961. Despite playing the role for five years, she appeared in only 26 episodes.
"I didn't want to leave Thelma Lou. I really loved her. I enjoyed her. She was sweet and kind, she was so fun to play, and I loved working with Don Knotts - he was so wonderful."
In 1986, she reprised the role of Thelma Lou in the reunion television movie Return to Mayberry, in which Thelma Lou and Barney Fife are finally married.
From 1967 to 1971, she was back at Desilu Studios to film seven episodes of “My Three Sons,” in which she played Janet (or Janice) Dawson for six episodes, and Lois Bradley for one episode. Lynn had appeared with star Fred MacMurray in the 1949 film Father Was a Fullback.
In 2006, Lynn retired from acting and relocated to Mount Airy, North Carolina, the home town of Andy Griffith and the town on which Mayberry is believed to have been based, despite Griffith's claims to the contrary. Lynn died on October 16, 2021, after a brief illness, at the age of 95.

Royal Deeside: Scotland’s Victorian Heritage Trail
Janice Hopper follows the Victorian Heritage Trail in Royal Deeside, Scotland, to discover the land that Queen Victoria fell hopelessly in love with
When Queen Victoria wanted somewhere to escape to, it was to Royal Deeside in Aberdeenshire that she headed. Victoria was so enamoured with the raw beauty of the Scottish countryside on her first visit in 1842 that by 1852 she’d secured land and her very own castle. Describing the landscape in her diary, she wrote: “All seemed to breathe freedom and peace”.
After a glorious rebuild, a new castle was completed for Victoria in 1856: Balmoral is still the Scottish holiday home of the Royal Family, where HM The Queen returns every summer. The area is rich in history and heritage, and it’s still possible to follow in the footsteps of Queen Victoria and experience what she referred to as “my dear paradise in the Highlands”.
One port of call worth making is the Royal Deeside Railway at Milton of Crathes, which offers return heritage journeys. Once leading all the way to Ballater, today’s passengers can get a sense of the steam rail journey Victoria would have taken along one mile of restored scenic track – the railways revolutionised travel across Britain, including that of the Royal Family. A Victorian station and railway carriage tearoom complete the picture.

One of the core attractions of Deeside for Victoria was the scenery, and the freedom it afforded her. Victoria and Albert went on pony treks into the wilds of Scotland, occasionally with just one servant in attendance. The couple also set off on ‘Great Expeditions’, as they called them, with their children, sometimes staying overnight in low-key inns where locals were unaware that they were in the company of royals. It was a true antidote to the family’s bustling London life.
The Linn of Dee, with its photogenic rocky gorge, is a sublime spot where Queen Victoria opened the bridge in 1857 with a celebratory tot of whisky. Other escapes and picnic spots favoured by the monarch include Queen Victoria’s Picnic Cottage at the Linn of Quoich, Alltnaguibhsaich Lodge in Glen Muick, and the Queen’s Shiel ‘Ruigh nan Bhan Righ’ at Glen Gelder. ‘Queen’s View’, just outside the village of Tarland, is considered one of Victoria’s favourite viewpoints, taking in vistas of Lochnagar, Morven and Mount Keen. After exhilarating exploits, Victoria and her family returned to the sanctuary of Balmoral Castle. Today, when the Royal Family isn’t in residence, you can visit the magnificent grounds and gardens as well as the Carriage Hall Courtyard and Castle Ballroom. Unfortunately, the rest of the castle is out of bounds.
Displays and films in the courtyard focus on the local wildlife, which includes golden eagles, red deer and mountain hares. The ballroom is home to artworks by Landseer and Carl Haag, as well as silver statues by Sir Joseph Edgar Boehm.
The Braemar Gathering

As well as serenity and peace, Royal Deeside was a place where Victoria, her friends and family could revel and celebrate. The Highland Games, full of colour, bagpipes, dancing and caber tossing, were popular events, and Victoria attended the lively Braemar Gathering at Braemar Castle from 1848. Today, the world famous-event is held on the first Saturday of September at the Princess Royal and Duke of Fife Memorial Park, just outside the village of Braemar, and HM The Queen attends every year.
In terms of revelry, Deeside was a place for parties and sport. Queen Victoria and Prince Albert held regular balls at Balmoral, such as the famous ‘Ghillies Ball’, which was both raucous and prestigious.
Sporting lodges, including the stunning Mar Lodge near Braemar in Cairngorms National Park, reveal the popularity of hunting during the Victorian era: Prince Albert was a keen and enthusiastic huntsman. Mar Lodge’s Stag Ballroom, festooned with some 2,500 stag antlers, is a breathtaking sight.
Victoria and Albert attended balls at the lodge, piped into the ballroom by torchlight, and later it became the home of their granddaughter, Princess Louise. Today, Mar Lodge is under the stewardship of the National Trust for Scotland and offers elegant self-catering accommodation.
Anyone for whisky?

Queen Victoria was also partial to the local whisky and she was known to have visited the Royal Lochnagar Distillery. Built in 1845, owner John Begg of Aberdeen knew the value of royal regulars, so he wasted no time at all in writing to the Queen’s private secretary inviting Victoria and her family for a tour and tasting. Unexpectedly, Victoria, Albert and their three eldest children arrived the following afternoon and a Royal Warrant was bestowed shortly afterwards.
The queen’s initial visit, which took place on 12 September 1848, is marked annually by a commemorative selection of casks for a limited bottling of Royal Lochnagar Selected Reserve. Fewer than 3,000 bottles are released each year.
But while the Scottish Highlands brought Victoria much joy, it was also a place of retreat when she was mourning her husband.
The land around Balmoral Castle is peppered with evidence of Victoria’s loss. Loch Muick is a handsome example. Here, visitors can follow a circular route around the water’s edge, passing Glas-allt-Shiel. This building is known as the ‘widow’s house’, as it was rebuilt for the queen in 1868, following the death of Prince Albert.
As such, this lodge didn’t overwhelm Victoria with memories of her beloved husband, so it provided a rural retreat in quiet, stunning surroundings. A statue of Prince Albert, wearing a kilt, holding a rifle and with a hunting dog by his side, stands proudly on the Balmoral Estate. Designed by William Theed, it was unveiled on 15 October 1867.

Then, when Victoria’s loyal ghillie, John Brown, passed away, a bronze full-height statue by Sir Joseph Edgar Boehm was erected of him on the estate. John Brown’s grave can be found in the quaint Crathie graveyard, and Crathie Kirk is a popular stop on the tourist trail as it’s where the Royal Family goes to worship when at Balmoral.
But perhaps the memorials that reveal the most about the pained queen are the cairns built around Royal Deeside commemorating or celebrating key moments in her life.
Of the many cairns decorating the landscape, the vast stone pyramid erected for Prince Albert in 1862 attracts the most attention. Its inscription reads: “To the beloved memory of Albert the great and good Prince Consort. Erected by his broken hearted widow Victoria R”.
The cairns are set in relatively remote, wild nooks of rural Deeside, proving that Victoria really knew the land. She knew the viewpoints, the hillsides, mountains, glens and valleys, and she considered, rejected and authorised the creation of cairns at locations close to her heart.
Victoria was no armchair-enthusiast; she was out in the changeable Scottish weather, pursuing life. The adventures, expeditions, pipes and drams were a breath of fresh air for a queen in an era renowned for hierarchy and stiff upper lip.
While Victoria is remembered for the loyalty she showed to the men in her life, perhaps her biggest love story of all was with Scotland.

Janice Fife if you were in a well written show i would not be your only fan and defender. Everyone say thank you Dolly Wells because homegirl gets 0 credit for the performance and life she brought to an otherwise one note and bland TV show
#i can’t even lie and say i am not a fan anymore. because i am a fan despite everything#i love it in the way i like twilight where i like it in spite of all the very obvious glaring flaws but can look past it and see something#mildly entertaining underneath it all#it doesn’t help that (i’m sorry my brothers) eveyone just wants to talk about how much that want to ride that david tenninch#look i know there is nothing notable about the show except he is a sexy vicar but i am fascinated by the potential (as well and wanting to#ride him until he ascends to makeshift heaven)#the show is so one note that compared to what harry has eveyone looks like a device. i need to make a good story out of it because i can’t
