CHILDREN OF EARTH by Russell T Davies

[fuckyeahgoodomens]

From the DVD commentary, episode 1:

Neil: Maggie Service over there was actually the longest serving member of the cast because she was at the original read-through a year before we actually started shooting, I did a read-through of the script and Maggie played Sister Mary Loquacious and a number of other people in it.

Mr. Bates vs The Post Office (2024)

One of the greatest miscarriages of justice in British legal history where hundreds of innocent sub-postmasters and postmistresses were wrongly accused of theft, fraud and false accounting due to a defective IT system.

This show is all based on a true story and it will make your blood boil and make you very angry at the injustice. This is still ongoing and you will not believe how long it has taken for the innocent postmasters and postmistresses to get this level of coverage. A must watch. If you are not in Britain, it will still be worth watching if you read up a little bit on the 'Horizon Post Office Scandal'. It really is just so wrong what has happened.

"Everyone's worried sick for you, you know. You can't just do this!"

"Why not?"

"Oh, come on. We all feel like this some time. But life must go on."

"Why?"

Kin Shriner posted a picture calling this, “the good old days”. That’s for sure.

Machten uns dann an Tony Kushners übergroße und -lange halbsurreale schwule Fantasie über nationale Themen, deren spektakuläre, schick besetzte gefeierte National-Theatre-Produktion dieses freundlicherweise bei NT at Home zur Verfügung stellt (sie können hier anlässlich der Verfilmung nachlesen, was da los ist- einiges). Es ist lang, anstrengend, fordernd und verstörend, aber unbedingt sehenswert.

New Scotland Yard: Papa Charlie (2.7, LWT, 1972)

"You realise, of course, that anybody, no matter what their rank or position, anybody who was at that meeting - who had sight of this - is now under suspicion of passing information to that gang, don't you?"

"Yes, of course."

"Someone's working on the inside. Could be anybody. Could even be Sergeant Ward - or perhaps you?"

"No."

"Well, we'll see. I intend to find out who it is. And I'm going to give myself one hour in which to do it."

In the shrinking sunlight of early October, life in Central Appalachia's forests and fields shows no signs of slowing down. A proliferation of asters and goldenrods fuels an insect feeding frenzy, at the same time ensuring that a late season eruption of seeds before the first frost will bring new life in the spring. From top: dog tooth lichen (Peltigera canina), also known as felt lichen, whose lobes are tipped by red apothecia ; large cranberries (Vaccinium macrocarpon), which dot wet mountain meadows and bogs; crooked-stemmed aster (Symphyotrichum prenanthoides); brown-eyed Susan (Rudbeckia triloba), which blooms later than black-eyed Susan and has three-lobed basal leaves; a bumblebee (Bombus) taking nectar from purple-stemmed aster (Symphyotrichum puniceum), also known as swamp aster; an American hoverfly (Eupeodes americanus) similarly drinking from purple-stemmed aster; blue wood aster (Symphyotrichum cordifolium); question mark butterfly (Polygonia interrogationis); and wrinkleleaf goldenrod (Solidago rugosa), also known as rough-leaf goldenrod.
