My feed is now full of Quaritch, Stephen Lang, and Terra Nova. I remember watching that show as a kid and just thinking the whole time, "This is just Quaritch if he was actually decent" 🤣

A while back I bought this on Ebay. It's an album made by someone (I'm imagining a boy scout but given its appeal here it may have been a middle-aged woman) with some pretty fragile original press clippings and handwritten notes. I got it laminated so it didn't fall apart any further.
"Every possible thing was provided man could want, so it was nothing to do with food that killed them. after reaching the Pole they retraced their steps. after crossing the glacier, Petty Officer Evans died of concussion of the brain, through walking over rough ice. He was the strong man of the Party and the least expected to succumb. It left them a shaken party.
After journeying on through the average of 47° of frost they reached eleven miles from the one ton depot when a fearful blizzard began. Captain Oates, who had been ill & bearing suffering without grumbling, thought he was keeping back the party & said “I am going out in the blizzard & I may be gone a long time”. They new he was walking to his death, but knew it was the act of a British hero and an English gentleman. His body was never found. They had food enough for two days and only eleven miles more to go, all would have gone well, had not the blizzard detained them. The knew their end was near so this is a brief discription of what Cap. Scott wrote. He said he hoped people would help the relations etc. of people who died. They had taken risks and new it, but did it to show Englishmen could undergo hardships.
Relief parties were sent out and found dead bodies & Cap Scott’s letter."

early attempt to teach myself how to use comic draw....scene from terra nova by ted tally, the stage play about the british polar party feat. roald amundsen as an avatar of death that only robert falcon scott can see. i simply think everyone should read it (and you can! here!)

did you know that the screenplay for The Last Place On Earth by known socialist trevor griffiths (rip) is up on archive.org and you too can read the extremely insane and completely unfilmable original "play" (he consistently refers to it as a play) originally called Judgement Over The Dead (lmao) full of deleted scenes and historical easter eggs that somehow became the iconic* (*citation needed) 1985 miniseries???? well now you do
featuring, first and foremost, The Piano Twinks:
Tumblr media
and amundsen/nansen???
Tumblr media
and MY GOD BILLY WE ALL HAD SCURVY and BILL'S IMPLACABLE SYMPATHY
Tumblr media
and deranged montages that surely he did not imagine would ever make it into the final version
Tumblr media
and Young Bodies Begin To Glisten
Tumblr media
and amundsen's hemorrhoids (???!?)
Tumblr media
and BILLCON
Tumblr media
and cherry (as played by twink hugh grant) swooning delicately post-winter journey
Tumblr media
AND MORE BILLCON
Tumblr media
and tom crean :'''))))))))
Tumblr media
and The Canonical Canadian Exclamation
Tumblr media
anyway that's all barely the tip of the iceberg (lol) so if you're looking for a crazymaking way to spend the next few hours i highly recommend diving in
