New Scotland Yard: A Gathering of Dust (2.3, LWT, 1972)

"Judging from the wound, the gun was fired from very close range; almost point-blank, I should think. Indicates the possibility of suicide."

"That's right, governor: he blows his brains out, crawls in here, walls himself up, throws the gun away, and dies laughing. That's cos he's got a sense of humour, he knows that a quarter of a bloody century later two stupid coppers are gonna go out of their mind wondering how the hell he did it!"

Ward is also claustrophobic‚ so the exercise is as much about reducing his panic as solving the case #it's a neat twist on the usual format and i was almost disappointed when they were rescued. once out‚ the focus becomes identifying the #corpse and then understanding the crime. cue many old soldier types‚ including old fave Steedman (actually in his early 40s but always #looking older than he was) and legitimate film star Livesey; this was one of just a handful of tv appearances the actor made in his old age #as film roles became less forthcoming. it all ends quite neatly and not exactly unexpectedly‚ but it's a pretty fun outing all told #derek martin pops up as a worker on the construction site; he'd not long made the switch from stunt man to full time actor‚ having broken #his collar bone working on Elizabeth R in 1971

20 queer horror TV shows to watch this Halloween 2024

via Out Magazine - 23 Oct 2024

Bryan Fuller's version of the Hannibal mythos is just about as gay as you can get. This Hannibal show centered on the obsessive relationship between serial killer Hannibal Lecter and FBI profiler Will Graham features plenty of queer actors, including Scott Thompson, Raul Esparza, Eddie Izzard, Cynthia Nixon, and Richard Armitage. It also homoeroticizes the central relationship and Hannibal's love of eating human flesh.

Update: did not, in fact, puke. Still feel a bit like I might though, so who knows. I won’t blame Hannibal for it if I do, lol.

Speaking of which, that’s two more episodes down. At this rate it’s gonna take me a damn year. Fucking executive dysfunction.

I didn’t take notes, but I have Thoughts(tm). Cut for spoilers, of course.

RIP Beverly. You were a real one.

And mad respect (even more than before) to Raul Esparza (and kinda Bryan Fuller too I guess) for making Chilton so damn… likable? Like Frederick Chilton is a douchebag of the highest order. So much so in fact that the general reaction to the ending of Silence of the Lambs, wherein Dr. Lecter not so subtly implies that he’s going to kill and consume him, is met with some variation of “well damn, couldn’t have happened to a nicer guy.” AND YET, here I am rooting for him. Fucking shit, Bryan.

Hannibal and Alana. Hannibloom? Ech, no thanks.

Took me a hot minute to remember where I’d seen Johnathan Tucker before (The Ruins). I was expecting him here though - I knew about Matthew Brown. Recall that I’m not going into this series completely blind. In fact, I noticed him before in an earlier episode. I was taking notes, and I almost thought to bring it up (“hey wait a minute was that Matthew Brown???”) but I didn’t.

These two gay losers outsourcing their murder of each other. Hanni’s gonna get his own chance at it in a couple episodes. Jesus Christ can’t you assholes just awkwardly flirt with each other like the rest of us?

And it’s always a pleasure to see Eddie Izzard. Especially in this - she’s wonderful in this show.

Next episode, my baby boy will finally be free, lol. And then… the honeytrapping can begin in earnest.

#rooster watches hannibal for the first time #season 2 #episode 5 #mukozuke #episode 6 #futamono #lots of food prep scenes tonight #not exactly easy on an upset tummy #but I’ll endure #as always #lol

We have to show the world that not all of us are like him. Otherwise, this will always be Hitler's Germany.

New Scotland Yard: And When You're Wrong (1.13, LWT, 1972)

"You sent for me."

"I sent for you four days ago."

"I didn't get the message till yesterday."

"Right, you can put your diary down. Where have you been?"

"Busy."

"Doing what?"

"You know what I'm doing."

"I know what you're supposed to be doing, nobody seems to know what you're actually doing."

"You'll have my report when it's all wrapped up."

"I'll have it now. Whatever you were playing at before, you're now a witness in a murder case."

Woodvine mostly struts around being very annoyed at #proceedings but he is notably sympathetic towards Fearn's (implied) sex worker and even subtly provides some legal advice at the close #with Carlisle busy being partly the subject of investigation‚ his place is taken for this ep by the lovely Wilkin sporting quite a 'tache #oh and it may not come across in text but the quote above quite takes you aback for the sheer lack of respect bordering on relaxed contempt #that Carlisle shows his immediate supervisor (the way he nails that 'You know what I'm doing' with arch disinterest.. the character may be #a shit but give him his dues‚ Carlisle plays it incredibly)

I am reminded of a young man, telling a story to his friend as those who share a bond so often do. The telling of tales is a part of human nature, a time in which we can choose to show the best, or worst, parts of ourselves to another, and hope that we will be received, that we will be seen- after all, to share stories is to find the connection that we so deeply yearn for, but to experience what will later become just another story is what forges our character. Moments where anything is possible, and one has everything to lose, are the fractions of an instant in which our character is forged, when the millions of cells and atoms and neuroses that make up our very being are rearranged to create a unique picture of the self. Tell me, Will, what will you do when you are sitting there, barbecue sauce on your titties?
