Favourite CID Era

S4-6 also includes Don't Like Monday (Tosh's family at the bank) and Ted and Roxanne's first appearance together as officer/snout

Series 7-9 inc Viv's death, Dashers guesting after leaving, Frank disappearing without warning for a mystery job and Harry Haines arriving. Danny Pearce, Jo Morgan and Alan Woods also arrive. Jo is promoted to DS after a few eps. Jack is demoted to DCI and returns as a regular rather than guesting as part of AMIP.

Series 10-13 includes Rod being rather chauvinistic to poor Suzi who becomes CID in this series. Jo returns for a guest period and is about to move back permanently before.. ahem. The Target trilogy are a particular work of art in series 11. Don arrives in series 11 when Deakin is promoted to DI after Sally goes. John Boulton arrives not long after too and finally in series 12 Geoff and Liz arrive and Alan goes and Tom Proctor brings up the rear in S13. There is a lot of Alistair and Suzi fun however as she gently teases him throughout.

Series 14-16 brings Duncan and Kerry Holmes with Tosh leaving through sad real-life happenings and Alistair transferring as does Suzi. Series 15 brings Danny Glaze and Claire Stanton as an undercover CIB agent trying to catch Don. She doesn't expect to fall in love with another CID member, however. Unfortunately, we do lose Liz in 15 but she does pop back a few times. Series 16 is a BIG CID-focused series. Rod jumps before he's pushed and the truth about Don comes out after he and John have a fight. We lose John, Don, Kerry, Claire, Geoff, Deakin, Tom, and Tom. We gain Paul Riley, Kate Spears, Vik Singh, Alex Cullen, and Debbie McAllister. A somewhat unfair exchange. Saving the best until last however for series 16 as Mickey also arrives and is at his cheeky scamp best.

Series 17-18 Near the end of series 16 we got a whole new bunch of CID after a mass exodus due to Don being revealed as a dodgy officer. To give them a chance to bed in properly, there were no cast changes to CID in series 17. The new lot featured heavily, Mickey went undercover as a rentboy for a bit and then as a football hooligan. Debbie's snout was her lover and there was quite hoo hah about him, There's a couple of guest appearances from Liz, one of which is a multi-parter that terrifies Kate Spears, Claire follows Don over to Australia to tr catch him and bring him to justice. In series 18 we lose Vik, Paul, Kate and Alex Cullen but gain Eva, Ken Drummond, Phil Hunter, Sam Nixon and Brandon. Series 18 is also the beginning of the numbered episodes and Paul Marquess...

Series 19-21: we gain Juliet for a short time before Rae gets fed up of the sexualised bisexual obsession for her storylines and we also end up with sexist arse, Rob Thatcher whilst losing Duncan, Danny and it's the first exit of Mickey too post-rape and the death of his mother over to MIT. It's not all bad, we also get Terry, Ramani and Neil. In series 20 we lose Rob when he finishes his vengeance against The Radfords by murdering Irene and being shot by CO19. We also lose Debbie and Brandon and Eva transferred to MIT. We gain Suzie in return, however. Series 21 we lose Ken in an explosion and Jim walks away after losing June and Ken. Gary who has been playing in CID for a little while gets short and transfers to the Manchester police. Jo arrives and Mickey returns from MIT. There's a mysterious newbie when Adi Mateen pretending Zain also arrives when it turns out that he's not the annoying gangster that's been buzzing round Sun Hill but has been undercover!

Series 22-24 - In series 22 we lose Ramani and Suzie, however, we gain Stuart and Kezia. THISISNOTAFAIRSWAP. Ahem. In series 23 we gain Grace and also Max at the very very end, Zain reaches the end of his tenure after being drawn to the dark side with Kristen and Phil transfers out rather suddenly as Scott appears to have jumped very quickly over to EastEnders. Series 24 welcomes Stevie and Banksy and we don't lose anyone!

Series 25-26 - I ummed and ahhed about making the last series a stand-alone selection on its own because it's a reboot but given it's only essentially half a year long and that the character changes happen in series 25 I put the two together. So, in this series we lose Jack as DCI because he becomes Superintendent. However we don't gain a new DCI, Neil just remains DI and does both jobs. Jo gets promoted but moves to uniform. Sam, Stuart and Kezia go (Could not have taken Sam being promoted to DCI!) and no one else leaves (other than Will) from CID until the very end. We have Mickey undercover as a homeless man, Max's drug problem and Mickey and Terry confronting him. Grace and Neil get together but Neil's son is diagnosed with cancer and so much more. Finally the entire station works together to nail the rapists of poor Jasmine (Respect 1-2)!

(Yep you guessed it, I meant to post this in the sierra-Oscar comm but got distracted.)

April '24 reading diary

This month, I finished 9 books in a whole bunch of genres, some of which were fab!

I read a lot more nonfiction than usual this month, starting with On Looking: Eleven Walks with Expert Eyes. Alexandra Horowitz recorded her conversations with a variety of experts as they walked through neighborhoods looking for examples of their interests, from bugs to typography to whatever attracted her toddler son. Like some reviewers I saw, I was disappointed that not all the walks were in the same neighborhood, which had appeared to be the premise. I also strongly recommend listening to the audiobook, as I did, because some of the conversational wording transcribed from her recordings is unnatural or repetitive written out. Anyway, a lot of the chapters are interesting, and the general theme of appreciating different things about your area by choosing to key in on a thought is great. A pleasant book.

Two great nonfiction books about clothes: Cally Blackman's 100 Years of Fashion, and Behind the Seams by Dolly Parton with Holly George-Warren and Rebecca Seaver. Both books are about fashion in the 20th century and a little bit beyond, and both are huge, heavy books full of the most glorious, well-chosen photographs. Blackman's is nicely organized around themes and not strictly by year, showing not only high fashion, but also the clothes of counterculture scenes and working women. This is a great resource. Parton's book, of course, is about her own stage costumes, and some other clothes people have made for her. It's also a memoir of her changing style and the professionals who contributed to it. Lots of fun.

The best nonfiction book I read this month (and possibly in the past year) was Africa Is Not a Country: Notes on a Bright Continent by Dipo Faloyin. His written voice is exceptionally strong, able to explain large amounts of historical context without it ever feeling dry or overwhelming. Faloyin makes powerful breakdowns of historical misconceptions and contemporary stereotypes, includes a hugely funny "how-to" guide on writing an awful movie set in Africa, and draws memorable comparisons between political corruption in Western and African nations. There is a description of young men striving not to allow anyone outside their friend group to hold the highest offices in their country, phrased so that the final punch line is that they were talking about the United Kingdom that I think is one of the most effective freeform arguments I've ever read. I very much hope other people will pick this up.

On the fiction side, Dial A for Aunties by Jesse Q. Sutanto has been on my radar since it was new. I understand why it was such a hit, but I was disappointed! The book was advertised to me as a murder mystery and romance, neither of which I'd say is true. It's a family screwball comedy! It does that very well, but I got tired of the number of plot beats that required someone to be very silly indeed, and I was never sold on Meddy's logic in multiple plot threads. I don't think I'll read the next.

The short story collection Filthy Animals by Brandon Taylor is a mixed bag, like every short story collection in the world. I think he's very skilled on a technical level at creating characters with complete lives and histories implied in a short space, and some of them have interesting things to say about how people reach out, lash out, struggle with guilt and illness, and the problem of kitsch (not in the sense of knickknacks, but of the denial of shit). I do find the stories pretty bleak, and I was very unimpressed with the interconnecting elements. The stories that link are about Lionel, a test proctor who recently survived a suicide attempt, and several dancers, two of whom he begins a poly relationship with. Except for the first, these stories neither stand alone well nor build on each other as a sequence. The relationship is written with a dangerous, taboo edge, largely because these people never properly have any conversations about it, which I found irritating. I'm glad to be familiar with Taylor's work now, but I think he gets in his own way trying to shock in all of the weaker stories.

I also read a single Edith Wharton short story that I didn't realize wasn't a novel until I opened the ebook. It's the wonderful "Xingu," in which a ladies' intellectual lunch club finds themselves at a loss trying to talk to their superior and unfriendly guest, until their least popular member pipes up to ask a question about Xingu. They all follow her lead, trying all the while to infer what, exactly, Xingu is. Great little satire of how people want to look current more than they want to enjoy things.

I grabbed Heartstopper vol. 1 because I needed a banned comic for a challenge, and that's almost synonymous with being a popular LGBTQ+ comic for young people. Frustrated hand gestures. Anyway, this is very sweet, would be totally appropriate for middle schoolers as well (it's sold as YA), and I somehow hadn't realized before that Alice Oseman is the same person who did a webcomic about a band I used to read from time to time when I was younger. I would have liked this a lot more when I was a teenager myself, but it's nostalgic and happy, so I may read the rest.

I'm still reading Lymond and in early April I finished the 3rd of 6 books, The Disorderly Knights. I had a very messy response to this one! I did in fact enjoy it tremendously, and it's technically excellent, full of things that grabbed me and kept me excited to read more every night. I love my problematic bestie Francis and many of the people around him. It also most sharply of the series so far shows upsetting attitudes of Dunnett's by participating in '60s rape culture and Islamophobia that I went beyond being critical of to angry about. It simply wouldn't have been published like this now. I still gave it four stars and I may even go up to five when I have a better sense of how it fits in the long arc of the series. In a thinner or less tailored to me series, these feelings couldn't coexist, but they do, and that's very much shared by everyone else I've been talking to the books about. I'm really glad I have people to talk to them about! It's a long-standing but not very Online^tm fandom. I'm already halfway through the next book.

Hi chap, wanna ask something. When you're writing, do you also simultaneously reading about the characters you currently write to find an inspiration or not

Thank you for the question, and generally speaking? No. When shows and movies depict a person with a deadline and a tendency to procrastinate, looking for literally any excuse to be distracted, that's me. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

While drafting, I might fall into dawdling around in references. (This is a horrific time killer unto itself.) I'll sometimes revisit an episode, or double check the scripts to make sure I'm not misremembering details. If I have time between drafting and IRL obligations, I try to spend that with family/other hobbies, with exception of keeping a novel by the bedside to chip away at. (Right now it's Lapvona by Ottessa Moshfegh. Next will be Brandon Sanderson's The Frugal Wizard's Handbook for Surviving Medieval England.)

Everything else? Added to a reading list for later. I sadly do tend to miss things in the moment they happen, but it keeps me from getting bogged down and encourages me to have a life outside of fandom related activities.

I hope this answers this? A bit of over explaining, but I guess that tracks. I feel like a lot of the inspiration ends up coming from the drafting, or the initial premise before I start, and sometimes if I'm stuck I might ask friends to work through the problem logically with me, but other than that, I just have to confine myself to the cloisters and pray I will someday be blessed with a finished product so I too can go dance with the devil alongside Goody Proctor.

Lajitas golf resort in Terlingua

The bronze sculpture, which was removed from the Dallas park in September 2017, is now at the Lajitas Golf Resort in Terlingua, Texas,

The 27,000-acre resort, which is privately owned by Dallas billionaire and pipeline mogul Kelcy Warren and managed by Scott Beasley, the president of Dallas-based WSB Resorts and Clubs, received the statue as a donation in 2019.

A statue of Confederate Gen. Robert E. Lee that the city of Dallas removed from a park and later sold in an online auction is now on display at a golf resort in West Texas (pictured in its new location at the Lajitas Golf Resort in Terlingua, Texas)

Workers remove the same statue of Confederate general Robert E. Lee from Robert E. Lee Park in Dallas, Texas, on September 14, 2017.

The park has also since been renamed

Confederate statues are removed from Lee Park in Dallas

The 1935 sculpture by Alexander Phimister Proctor was among several Lee monuments around the U.S. that were removed from public.

The artwork, which depicts Lee and another soldier on horses, was kept in storage at Dallas' Hensley Field, the former Naval Air Station, until it was sold in 2019.

Law firm Holmes Firm PC made the top offer for the sculpture, according to documents from the Dallas City Council.

Terlingua, which is in Brewster County near Big Bend National Park and the Rio Grande, has less than 100 residents and no record of Black residents, according to recent census data.

Black people make up just 1.7% of the population of Brewster County, according to census data.

Beasley told the Chronicle the statue serves no intent but to preserve 'a fabulous piece of art,' and called its critics 'uneducated'.

'I would say that of the 60-plus-thousand guests we host each year, we've had one or two negative comments' he said.

'[The critics] were uneducated. They didn't know the true history and the story. (We) have not had any verbal comments at all and it wouldn't matter. If you know your history about Robert E. Lee and everything about him, it's fabulous.'

But Black Lives Matter Houston activist Brandon Mack said he takes issue with supporters of Lee who argue that the statue is merely 'an appreciation for art'.

Lee, right, and a young soldier by sculptor Alexander Phimister, sit in storage at Hensley Field, the former Naval Air Station on the west side of Mountain Creek Lake in Dallas. Dallas City Council on Wednesday, May 22, 2019 He said he wonders whether the same defense would be used for other offensive symbols from throughout history, or if that's reserved for iconography solely glorifying the oppression of Blacks.

'We don't glorify the swastika; we don't have monuments (of) Adolf Hitler,' he said.

Robert E. Lee was a Confederate general who is best known for his service for the Confederate States of America during the American Civil War.

During the war, he was appointed the overall commander of the Confederate States Army, which fought to secede from the United States largely over the right to own slaves. Lee himself is documented to have had paradoxical views on slavery, believing it was both an evil but necessary institution.

Dallas City Council voted to remove the Lee statue in September of 2017 in the aftermath of the deadly August 2017 'Unite the Right' white nationalist rally over another Lee monument in Charlottesville, Virginia.

Both statue removals came amid a wave of local grassroots calls to take down Confederate monuments in cities across the US.

The Lee statue was taken out of Dallas' formerly named Lee Park in September of 2017 after an approving city council vote.

Lawmakers voted to sell it in 2019 following months of debate about what to do with it.

In May, Lee Park was temporarily renamed Oak Lawn Park following the Lee statue's removal.

City council voted to rename it Turtle Creek Park later that month.

It was revealed in 2019 that it was a Dallas-based law firm that placed the winning $1.435 million bid for a statue of Lee.

Holmes Firm PC - owned by Ronald L. Holmes - made the top offer, according to documents from the Dallas City Council seen at the time.

It was revealed in February that almost 170 Confederate symbols were removed from public spaces in 2020 after Black Lives Matter activists threatened to tear them down following the death of George Floyd.

Of the 168 symbols changed or removed from public spaces last year, all but one went down after Floyd was killed in Minneapolis on May 25. At least one was stolen and several were vandalized by protesters before being removed.

'2020 was a transformative year for the Confederate symbols movement,' SPLC Chief of Staff Lecia Brooks said in a statement.

'Over the course of seven months, more symbols of hate were removed from public property than in the preceding four years combined.'

Men for All Seasons

Upon my father’s return from his Army assignment in South Korea, the family moved to Fort Huachuca, a post in Southern Arizona. It was the middle of October 1968 by that point, and I missed getting involved with the fall stage production at Buena High School.

But at the beginning of the spring semester early the next year, auditions were held for “A Man for All Seasons,” the Robert Bolt play about Sir Thomas More which had been made into a movie in 1966.

I was originally cast in a small role, but shortly thereafter was assigned the part of Thomas Cranmer, the Archbishop of Canterbury. This was long before I was familiar with the Anglican Church — or the American version, the Episcopal church — but I took on the role with joy. For one thing, it allowed me to show off my English accent.

Three other players in that production have remained friends with each other and me for the more than 54 years since that time:

George (who now goes by Geo) played the part of the Common Man, who serves as a narrator and a framing device. He plays various small parts who appear throughout the play, both taking part in and commenting on the action. Several sequences involve his character breaking the fourth wall and addressing the audience.

Jay performed the role of King Henry VIII, who wished to divorce his wife Catherine of Aragon, who did not bear him a son, so that he could marry Anne Boleyn, the sister of his former mistress.

Bill took on the part of Thomas Howard, 3rd Duke of Norfolk, a prominent English politician and nobleman of the Tudor era and an uncle of two of the king’s six wives.

Geo was the son of a local Baptist preacher. Jay and Bill were both sons of military personnel. Since I was both a preacher’s kid and an Army brat, I had plenty in common with all three. Which accounts for our long friendship.

After college, Geo went into teaching. He spent a good part of his career in San Diego and retired within the last couple of years. Both Jay and Bill followed in their fathers’ footsteps, with careers in the U.S. Army. Both taught at West Point for a time. Bill now serves as a military affairs advisor to members of Congress. Jay retired from the Army while at West Point and currently teaches political science at a college in Washington, D.C.

“Man” was followed later in the spring of 1969 with a production of the musical “Where’s Charley?”, based on the play “Charley’s Aunt” by Brandon Thomas, a farce written in the late 19th century. Once again the four of us participated, but the roles we played have been lost in the mists of time.

Jay graduated that year, but Bill and Geo and I appeared together the next fall in “The Crucible,” Arthur Miller’s story about witch trials in Salem that also served as an allegory for McCarthyism, when the U.S. government was hunting communists. Geo and I played the roles of Rev. John Hale and Rev. Samuel Parris, while Bill was John Proctor, the play’s protagonist.

Bill moved to Germany with his father in the middle of that year, and Geo and I appeared in our last show together in the spring of 1970, “Bye Bye Birdie,” inspired by the conscription of Elvis Presley into the Army. Geo played Conrad Birdie, the rock ‘n’ roller, and I performed as Harry MacAfee, the father of two young fans of Birdie.

All this historical information is being relayed because this weekend is a reunion of sorts, perhaps the first time the four of us have been together since our high school days. The occasion is Jay’s 50th wedding anniversary, and an even larger cast of characters is gathering for several days of memory-laden enjoyment.

Comics this week (5/12/2021)?

comics-and-videogames said: This week's comics (asking now cause it's around the time you said you'd have them if not disregard)

Anonymous said: Comics this week? (05/10/2021)

Just under the wire before the new batch:

Spider-Man: Spider’s Shadow #2: Not exactly another Life Story in the making, but this does seem to be the closest we’ll ever get to a Spider-Man Kills The Marvel Universe, and I don’t know that there’s any other team I’d trust more with that.

X-Corp #1: Wow, so it turns out it’s really hard to do what Hickman does if you’re not Hickman, huh. Frankly this kinda sucked all on its own merits, but no overlooking the disparity.

Guardians of the Galaxy #14: Oh my god we already knew Ewing writes peak Doom shit but guys this is SUCH peak Doom shit.

Heroes Reborn: Hyperion & The Imperial Guard #1: Not quite as good as it was clever, but still a solidly fun little jaunt and I’ll keep an eye open for Ryan Cady’s name in the future.

Heroes Reborn #2: Aaron’s “it’s dumb and bad but I like it” Avengers approach applied to writing the high-concept adventures of dickhead Superman? You know I was all about this.

Project Patron #2: Not as propulsive as the first issue, but still a really solid read and setting up exciting things to come.

Proctor Valley Road #3: Still pretty good but I am completely thrown by how quickly and entirely Morrison abandoned the relative realism they were handling the dialogue with in the first issue.

Ice Cream Man #24: It’s a familiar schtick at this point, but still a good one.

Barbalien: Red Planet: I’d been hearing effusive praise about this mini for as long as it was coming out and was looking forward to it finally arriving in trade, and I can’t say I was disappointed. Obviously it looks good as hell with Gabriel Walta drawing it, and Tate Brombal does some really good “superhero as metaphor” work by having the layer of fantasy not over the subject itself - in this case the AIDS crisis and cop violence against the queer community - but how the central figure engages with it. An easy recommendation if you might otherwise be on the fence.

DC Festival of Heroes: The Asian Superhero Celebration #1: Aside from the eponymous ‘Festival of Heroes’ entry everything in here ranges from solid to really good, definitely among the winners of DC’s anthologies over the past few years and I’m looking forward to the apparent Monkey Prince book in the works.

Superman #31: The substitution of Godlewski with Norm Rapmund threw me in a way that artistic switches rarely do, but this is still a really solid issue and I’m kicking myself for only just now realizing the metaphor with a story about Clark and Jon struggling with legacy having them literally fight a gigantic shadow that makes vessels of whoever it’s cast upon. These Tales of Metropolis backups though...folks, I stood up for Sean Lewis with his Future State work, but it’s starting to look like we may have dodged a bullet that he didn’t get a more prominent place in the line.

Wonder Woman #772: Continuing to really dig this! Just don’t understand how this team’s Future State story sucked so bad, because this has been a hoot and now it’s grappling with larger ideas regarding Diana really well. Hope it continues on this trajectory, for now just happy that we’re finally getting fun Wonder Woman comics.

RWBY/Justice League (digital) #9: So it IS multiverse-related, which makes me much more curious how this is going to end up. Glad the next installment will apparently be the ‘everybody sits down and talks’ material that’s all I’ve really wanted from this story since it was announced.

Justice League: Last Ride #1: Not all you want it to be, but in ways I’m not sure can really be called its fault? It was written and formatted as a digital-first book but for some reason didn’t end up one so it stutters awkwardly back to life after a clean breaking point halfway through, and with all due respect to Miguel Mendonca who does a fine job here, if you’re doing a prestige-ey continuity-free kinda grungy Final Justice League Story mini and have Darick Roberson on the covers, it’s gonna be frustrating to not also have him on the interiors. It’s still a solid read and Zdarsky clearly gets Clark in particular in a big way, it’s just hard thus far not to imagine a better version of it.

Batman: Urban Legends #3: Zdarsky writes such a good Batman, god. The Shiva story was decent, I’m hoping the presumed upcoming Brandon Thomas Outsiders book is more of a piece with his Future State feature for them than this, and the Grifter stuff is still decent trashy fun.

The Joker #3: Still a great Gordon book, but arguably more importantly given the title this is the first time Tynion’s done a truly great Joker moment.

Rorschach #8: A book I continue to like.

Teams: Manly's axing after show-stopping game

The NRL's form player of the year, Tom Trbojevic, is set to make his return for the Sea Eagles after missing round 23 with a facial injury.Last week, Trbojevic was ruled out as a precaution amid conflicting reports the superstar fullback had damaged a pre-existing facial fracture.

Tom Trbojevic (Getty)While serious injury concerns were put to bed, the Sea Eagles took no chance, resting their talisman who is set to make an emphatic return against the Bulldogs this week.Meanwhile, star teammate Moses Suli has been dropped from Des Hasler's squad despite putting up a stellar man of the match performance last week.

MC told Charlie to gather his family & get them to The Three Broomsticks for Bill’s farewell party which would include Percy so that explains why he was there. I guess Penny understandably didn’t want Beatrice out of her sight after she got out of the portrait but still wanted to come to Bill’s party so she brought her along. I think Dumbledore must have let her as well. I don’t understand why he presumably didn’t let the younger kids go to the vault celebration party though. He must’ve known how hard they all worked. :/

Yeah, I suppose it makes sense that, if it was some kind of farewell/graduation party at the end of the year, for a younger student’s older sibling, and even their parents were attending, they could probably get special permission to go. Come to think of it, I’ve always wondered about what happens if a Hogwarts student has family in Hogsmeade, if they call that village home. Are they able to get away with visiting before they’re old enough? Are the parents really going to say “no” they can’t visit once they’re in third year? What happens if they do? And on another note, do these students have to take the Hogwarts Express? They’re within walking distance of their campus, so is it required? I suppose it could be a form of attendance taking, but we never see anything like that happen in the books...

I’m getting way off topic. You’re right, I can see Penny saying “screw the rules” in light of getting her sister back and bringing her to the party because in the twilight hours of Year 5, those two would have been joined at the hip. Penny would not have gone anywhere without her. If O.W.L.s hadn’t happened before The Portrait Vault, you can bet Penny would have brought Beatrice in to sit with her during the exams, and any proctor who objected would be met with the most unexpected, terrifying death glare...

Dumbledore...oh hell, this is about to become a Dumbledore bashing paragraph, isn’t it? Alright, stay calm Brandon...but in general, his reactions to MC’s behavior, what he knows about The Circle and whether or not he approves...is inconsistent. So inconsistent, to the point that it becomes infuriating. I’ve talked before about how he spends the first four years congratulating MC for opening the Vaults, and then decides to give them a year’s worth of detention for it...and then brings on Rakepick to help MC open them. Then after she’s gone, he switches to “let the adults handle it” even though they never have, and he only doubles down when R kills MC’s best friend. He’s so against The Circle that he gives MC detention for (theoretically) teaching people the Shield Charm...but after MC opens the Sunken Vault, Dumbledore calls them a hero? Make. Up. Your. Mind.
