@gregory-dillard What's it like being so lonely and single all day?
Can't talk for long, though, mate, I'm meeting with three girls in an hour and they're all mad for me.

Hiya, everyone.
My name's Gregory Dillard, but you can call me Greg! Not too used to all this Tumblr and Internet stuff, but Gabby asked me to join, and here I am! I'm a lawyer (though not a great one, I'll be honest), so ask away on that front, if you like. Though, uh, maybe not as much as just regular old questions about me, eh? Can't really be a work question if I'm not getting, uh, paid... Definitely the only reason.
Intro... Intro, intro, intro. Uhm. Looks easy on everyone else's page. Let's see, uh, I go by he/him, I'm middle-aged, my favourite colour is blue, andddd... I'm not that interesting, I suppose, because I can't think of anything else. If you can, you can always ask, though!
Information about this Roleplay Blog and Character:
Greg still works in the office and sits opposite Spencer (@spencer-fitzwilliam), but is slowly attempting to transition out into Freelance.
Greg currently resides in flat 13 in the divorcees apartment building, and lives with Lady Gabby (@gabbypenhowe).
Greg is not dating Anne-Marie.
Greg is overly insecure, especially about his lawyer-ing abilities, and tries to talk around this as much as possible.
Pre-Season 3 content, though it may be discussed at some point.
Non-canon plotlines will be included (such as Greg and Gabby getting cats).
There'll be a disclaimer in the tags of posts but I must reiterate that THIS IS NOT ACTUAL LEGAL ADVICE. Greg's not too great of a lawyer regardless and his answers are roundabout anyway, so I doubt you'd even get much.
The Outlaws is a 15+ show, so this blog will contain 15+ content.
Multi-shipping is okay, but there will be main themes of Deskzone, Dillberley, and Platonic Gregriella.

This roleplay blog is unlikely to use The Outlaws tags for a while just to stop clogging up the posts. The account will keep posting in-blog.

For the record, there was a card going around the office - a birthday card - and we all had to sign it, as you do.
Anyhow, Sp- I mean- my collegeaue, he gives me a busted pen. I got to sign, and SPAT, all over my shirt, the card, my desk. So then I looked silly in front of the frankly rather pretty lady who was distributing the card.

In light of all the horrid stuff going on in this country lately, I would just like to remind everyone that england isn’t a totally terrible place!!
This country is full of beautiful architecture, art, literature, and natural beauties that are sometimes hard to believe are real.
This is the Major Oak of Sherwood Forest, and is estimated to be as much as 1100 years old!! It is estimated at 23 tons, and is 33 feet in girth/10 metres. According to local folklore, it is the tree where Robin Hood and his merry men slept when in the forest.
This is Durdle Door, in Dorset. It’s a natural limestone formation on the jurrassic coast, which was deemed “of such international geographic importance” that it was England’s first foray natural World Heritage site with UNESCO in 2001, joining the Grand Canyon and the Great Barrier Reef (visit-dorset.com)
As for architecture, we have the iconic Highclere Castle
Most well known for its use in iconic historical drama Downton Abbey, first written records of the Highclere estate date back to the year 749 when the estate was granted to the bishops of Winchester. In the late 14th century the bishop of Winchester William of Wykeham built himself a palace on the property, and was taken by Edward VI during the reformation in 1551. It was then granted to the Fitzwilliam family, rebuilt in 1679 by then owner Sir Robert Sawyer, who then bequeathed it to his daughter Margaret, first wife to the 8th earl of Pembroke, Thomas herbert, and it remains in the hands of the Herbert family to date, albeit the branch that resulted in the current Earl of Carnarvon. It was redesigned in the years 1842-49 to the facade we know today. (Quick side note, I am directly related to the herbert family through my great grandfather, so carnarvon I’m coming for you watch out)
We also have of course, the ever iconic Chatsworth house
IYKYK. Jk this incredible house is most well known for its use as Pemberley, the Derbyshire residence of Mr Darcy in the 2005 production of Pride and Prejudice (the best film ever made thank you very much).
The Manor of Chetesuorde is listed in the Domesday Book of 1086 as property of the crown in the custody of William de Peverel. Chatsworth ceased to be a large estate until the 15th century when it was purchased by the Leche family. They enclosed the first park and built a house on what is now the south east part of the gardens. The lands were sold in 1549 to Sir William Cavendish, husband of Bess of Hardwick (who was the “keeper” of Mary Queen of Scots while imprisoned. Also apparently her grandson married ANOTHER of my ancestors so I’m related to her too?? What the fuck I need to stop learning family history on the fly). Bess began to build her own home on the property from 1553 to the 1560s.
The home was renovated a truly mindboggling amount of times, as is the amount of times it changed hands. So I’ll keep it simple. A great number of important changes were made by the 4th duke of Devonshire, greatly changing the layout of the home. His son would marry Georgiana Spencer, 4 times great aunt of princess Diana (and YET ANOTHER RELATIVE OF MINE! From another branch of the family!! I need to call my mother. And update my ancestry.com).
In 1811 the 6th duke of Devonshire inherited Chatsworth, and proceeded to transform it into the wonderful beacon of regency romance we know and adore today over the course of his stewardship over the property.
These are only four incredible natural and historical landmarks in England. There are so many more that I could spend 3 life times researching!! (And so many more that have nothing to do with my family history, I promise. Swear I wasn’t doing this on purpose lmao)
This country can be a fucking nightmare, but it’s also a beautiful country with incredible sights and history, and I think we do ourselves a disservice when we forget that. It’s okay to love England (I fucking adore this country you have no idea, wouldn’t be running a blog if I didn’t!), you aren’t a bad person or supporting the bad shit we’ve done if you are proud of being English.
Because don’t get me wrong this country has perpetrated some of the worst shit in history, but we’ve also contributed some of the most important literature and scientific discoveries ever!!
Mary Anning revolutionised the field of paleontology!! Mary Shelley started the entire sci fi genre. Steven hawkin, Charles Darwin, Dorothy Hodgkin and Rosalind franklin discovered DNA! Isaac Newton, William Blake, John Keats, Byron, Alan Turing, Branwell, Charlotte, Emily, and Anne bronte, Dante Gabriel Rossetti, John Everett Millais, John William Waterhouse, to name a few merely off the top of my head!
England can be a wonderful place, and our heritage can be incredible and a legacy to be truly proud of. It would not do to forget, however, that a lot of our history would not have been possible without queer and ethnic minority groups. We all know a good deal of English wealth came from the slave trade, female scientists and artists often had credit for their work stripped from them and given to husbands or even strangers, and a good number of our most influential scientists and artists were very notably queer who were treated incredibly poorly and sometimes killed, and these are facts that can and do exist simultaneously.
Our heritage is wonderful, but it is still being made today. Things that we do now will be landmark events for our descendants, and it is our duty to do better for this country than our ancestors.
#long ass post sorry#I’m In A Mood today#apologies for the absolutely bizarre turn into my family history I genuinely did not expect to be related to like everyone involved in this#i severely underestimated how intertwined the nobility is#I would love to chat with anyone about some fascinating bits of English history they know and am happy to elaborate on anything I possibly#can!#politics#english history#chatsworth house#highclere castle#dorset#sherwood forest#english culture#trans rights#durdle door#can’t tag everything or I’ll be here all day#Admin Roe

In case you didn’t know, former President Donald Trump is releasing another book by April 25, and this one is bringing in a lot of attention because it isn’t an autobiography or another business-based guide; it's a book of letters he’s gotten over at Letters to a lot of famous figures, whose letters to him will be seen in the public eye—including past ones from Princess Diana.
Per Newsweek, many sources are claiming these letters have the potential to cause “embarrassment,” with royal commentator Richard Fitzwilliams saying, “It is possible that [the letter] might contain embarrassing material, though it is highly unlikely they will contain anything compromising as [Diana] apparently viewed him with disdain.”
Along with Diana, letters from Oprah Winfrey, Hillary Clinton, Queen Elizabeth II, and Kim Jong Un are said to also be in the upcoming book. But many are interested to see what Diana wrote to the former President in 2022; the biography The King: The Life of Charles III claimed that Trump had "aggressively pursued" Diana after she and King Charles III divorced in 1996, and it’s not the only one.
"He bombarded Diana at Kensington Palace with massive bouquets of flowers, each worth hundreds of pounds, and clearly saw Diana as the ultimate trophy wife. As the flowers piled up at her apartment, she became increasingly concerned about what she should do and had begun to feel as if Trump was stalking her," wrote journalist Selena Scott for the Sunday Times in 2015. They met back in the 1990s since they ran in the same social circle and would bump into one another through charity functions. He’s made vulgar comments about her in the past and even wrote in his 1997 book The Art of the Comeback, "I only have one regret in the women department—that I never had the opportunity to court Lady Diana Spencer."
The book is set to be released in a little over a month, and truly, no one knows what to expect.

The second of Jane Austen’s novels, first published in 1813, is the most often adapted, inspiring various different takes on it. The ones pictures above are detailed below:
Pride and Prejudice (1940 Film)
This black and white film departs from the original novel in some (or should I say many?) points

Lizzie’s videos amount to 100 episodes + 10 Q&A, but shorter series enrich the story by offering other characters’ perspectives, most notably Lydia’s (and also Georgiana’s). A playlist at Pemberley Digital’s Youtube channel features them all in order.

Features 100 episodes in the International cut. The telenovela has been broadcast in other countries and languages (such as Spanish) but as far as I know, not in English.
Pride and Prejudice: Atlanta (2019 TV Film)
Loose adaption set in modern Atlanta, USA. All-black cast. Written by Tracy McMillan, directed by Rhonda Baraka
Starring Tiffany Hines as Elizabeth Bennet, Juan Antonio as Will Darcy, Raney Branch as Jane Bennet, Brad James as Charles Bingley, Reginae Carter as Lydia Bennet, Carl Anthony Payne as Rev. Collins, among others.
*****
Personal favorites: 2005, then 1995. But also: The Lizzie Bennet Diaries, Orgulho e Paixão
I also enjoyed Atlanta and, while it’s been a while since I’ve seen Bride and Prejudice, it’s got Indian musical numbers so c’mon, one gotta watch it.
Back to the closer adaptions, despite its age, 1980 is also good! 1940 is...very different, but fun in its own way.
In fact, while I find some of these versions weaker, I could find enjoyment in all of them - but maybe that’s cause I’m a sucker for P&P.
