i reckon brian (last night of the proms) and maurice (private view) would get on well together. they're passionate about music/art, they both seem a little bit prickly, and they've both got a secret murder under their belt

This emoji made me think of Maurice from Private View

Send me an emoji (or a set of emojis) and I'll make a gifset of the character that reminds me the most of that emoji

Inside no 9 - Series 3 painting studies ~

Another set of individual paintings for this painting series!

I was worried that the different aspect ratio of The Devil Of Christmas might not work with the rest of the paintings but it doesn't look too bad tbh! (I think helped by the fact I picked a lot of dark shots lol)

There were a lot of really dynamic shots to chose from in The Bill but I really liked the energy and impressionist vibe of this one! Although it did mean drawing lots of hands (which are famously one of the most difficult things for artists to draw pfft...)

I think someone had suggested another really touching scene from Empty Orchestra which I was tempted to do, but in the end went for the part where Janet's reaching up to feel the music vibrating through the speaker (even if the pose was v difficult to paint lol)!

I think it turned out quite well though and it was fun to play around with some bright neon colours especially when so many of these are mostly made up of various shades of browns pfft...

So ok, fun fact, for most of these I followed the screen shot fairly accurately, but for the Diddle Diddle Dumpling one I knew I wanted to get those weird chairs in my piece but the scene itself was too wide so I did cheat and bring everything in a bit lol

Also something I discovered whilst painting the Private View one is that mannequins are much easier to draw than people and I will exclusively be drawing them from now on pfft

As always I hope people are still enjoying these posts and hearing me yap bout this series (& this amazing show lol)...

Remember when Caitríona attended the Private View before the first UK exhibition dedicated to the work of French couturière, Gabrielle 'Coco' Chanel, charting the establishment of the House of CHANEL and the evolution of her iconic design style which continues to influence the way women dress today?

So last summer, when listening to the in9 pods & commentaries, I twice picked Reece up on mentioning something about Hitchcock and the "bomb under the table", but I never looked up what that was.

Last week, I watched BECOMING HITCHCOCK: THE LEGACY OF BLACKMAIL where, at one point, the "bomb under the table" was mentioned, and I finally found out what it was (and later realized this was actually a very famous quote...I'm ashamed not to have known it despite being a Hitchcock fan!!):

The last bit of that video is interesting and wasn't something I found when initially googling the "bomb theory". Reece & Steve have talked about writing moments of tension and then letting the audience off the hook with a laugh - I believe this has been mentioned in the TLOG commentaries as well (one of the live shows?).

I racked my brain for quite some time on just where this was mentioned, and it finally clicked for me today that it was in the "Private View" commentary and the "Misdirection" BBC Sounds pod. (ofc it was when discussing the murder-mystery eps!!!)

Attempted to transcribe the commentary & pod because I don't want to forget this again (forgive the terrible punctuation):

PRIVATE VIEW commentary @ 20:27

Steve: We got to this point and we thought, "Right, rather than leave the unmasking of the killer right to the very end, which would be the obvious way of doing a twist ending, we'll reveal now", or coming up – Reece: Well, then it takes the heat off it being a massive reveal at the end, because if you're getting it, it's like, well, don't worry, we want you to know at this point. Steve: Well, the fewer people that are alive, the more you're likely to guess. Reece: Yes, and also it's nice that then the tables are turned as far as the audience knowing who the killer is, but the people that are innocent don't, and then you're ahead of them. Steve: Exactly, you can enjoy that. Reece: It's like the Hitchcock thing of telling people that there's a bomb under the table.

MISDIRECTION – Inside Inside No. 9 pod @ 01:32

Steve: So, this is the fourth episode, and it centers on magic, and it's fair to say you love magic. Reece: Yes, magic. Well, we always wanted to do one sort of in that world – or I did – but I think, actually, thinking about it, one of the things that got us through it was the idea of doing a Columbo episode, wasn't it? It was a murder where you knew the person had done it and it was how they got caught. That was an appealing set up. Steve: Very often with these episodes, we're kind of holding something back, and it was great, with this one, to begin with a big action set piece and kill off a character who you may have thought could've been going on to the end. Reece: Yes, and I remember in the edit, this was long, wasn't it? It was quite long, and there was suddenly a version where we thought you could cut the beginning off and start with Neville successful, then halfway through let the penny drop that he'd done this thing. (Steve: What, so cut me out of it entirely? Reece: No, you'd have been back in it as a reveal – Steve: What, as a flashback? Reece: – as to what happened. Well yeah, then you'd have been in a flashback rather than a – Steve: Mm, I wasn't party to that decision. Reece: No, no, you were.) Obviously, it was better the way it was because then you were watching, like the Hitchcock thing, isn't it, of the bomb under the table, where he says there's two people talking about baseball, and they're talking about baseball and then the whole thing blows up because there was a bomb under the table; but then if you show the bomb under the table and then see them talking about baseball – Steve: You've got the tension. Reece: – you've got the tension, and that's sort of what we went with.
