Ella Bruccoleri also had a part in an episode of All Creatures Great and Small from last year IIRC.
I’m watching Inspector Morse for the first time, and I’m up to the final season/series. In an ep that was released in 1997, Ben Caplan (Chummy’s Peter) has a couple of lines as a bartender. It was a very small part, but I recognized him right away.

I remember that episode, but not which season it was in. IIRC Trixie gave her heck for not wearing support stockings!

My mother’s older brother drowned in a lake in Ontario cottage country when he was 17 and she was younger than ten - this was back in the 1940s. When I was growing up, she was always so anxious when I was at the beach or a swimming pool. I remember when I was growing up, our neighbours had a swimming pool, and even if they invited me over to swim I couldn’t go unless my father or (8 yrs older than me) brother were with me. And the neighbours were a police officer and an ER nurse! But after I had my own children I completely understood why she was so anxious.

Just because I had to explain it to my partner because I lived in England for 2-1/2 years,
It's a Lilo, not a Lido. I probably learned it around the same time I found out what a "biro" was.I only know about the lilo because I heard it on Coronation Street once and I had no clue what the eff a lilo was 😄 I have Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy to thank for teaching me about biros!

I couldn’t believe that the writers would actually have a character using the r-word (r*tard). I thought everyone knew how offensive that word is - it made me really angry 🤬

I’m doing a rewatch - first time I watched it was about five years ago - and I’m on s5 e2 and I see Arthur from Peaky Fucking Blinders! (I always call him Arfur 😄)

I’ve enjoyed the last two episodes much more than the Miss Harbottle ep. I had to laugh when Paul Copley turned up as a clinic customer - he’s one of those English actors who seems to be in every show! I’ve seen him in Downton Abbey and Coronation Street, and even recently when I was rewatching Cracker (a favourite from the 1990s), he appeared as a pathologist.
I also chuckled at the end when they were having dinner - there was a little plate of pickled eggs at Helen’s place 😄

hen Reacher was running towards the ascending helicopter, I sincerely wondered if we were going to see him pull a Captain America from The Winter Solider-style grab.
That was my thought, too 😄

I quite liked the series - I thought this last ep was a little rushed, but with only five eps in the series, I guess that couldn’t be helped. I hope we get more seasons!

Despite Maya saying that he never bothered to learn it, Fisk does know a little ASL because he used a few signs when talking to her in the final episode of Hawkeye (I wonder if we’ll ever get a second season of that show - I loved it).
It’s been years since I watched Daredevil. Didn’t Vanessa die at some point? I guess I should watch it again!

Ha, I figured it out. She played the young widow in The Mandalorian first-season ep “Sanctuary” - Mando asked her to look after Grogu, and she wanted him to stay as well (and drink spatchka - okay, it was Cara Dune who suggested that 😄).

Speaking of flashbacks, one of Maya’s ancestors looks so familiar to me, and I can’t remember if she was on Rez Dogs or something else. I can’t upload a picture here because it’s too big and I can’t resize it on mobile, but she’s not the one from the cave and not the one who played the lacrosse-type game - she has what looks like a tattoo on the lower part of her face. @thuganomics85 would you have any idea who it is? It’s bothering me 😄 Thanks!
Oh, I managed to make it small enough!
-
Aah, I did not know Daredevil was going to be in this! I’m enjoying it so far, and it’s almost a mini-Reservation Dogs reunion (shitass!) 😄

And not for nothin', but I'm sorry, muscle-bound guys don't look in suits - they look like they're suffocating. The Rock had the same problem in Ballers, and he didn't even wear a tie.
I couldn’t help wondering what the menswear Twitter dude (@dieworkwear) would think of Reacher in a suit 😄

“Damn! I had written a post this morning when I finished the ep, but it didn’t post because of the upgrade, and I’ve forgotten what I wrote 😄
Anyway, good episode again! I’m sad there are only two remaining. Trying to resist the temptation to 🏴☠️ them (arr matey). I hope the show is renewed; I’m enjoying Tosh and Ruth working together.”
I wrote this a few days ago when the site was having issues, and I see that it never posted, but the editor helpfully retained it. Which is good because I couldn’t remember what I had written!
I still wish the series was a little longer. Six episodes just doesn’t seem like enough…Anyway, I’m looking forward to tomorrow’s ep. Enjoying the season and not really missing Jimmy all that much, I have to say!

The passport guy looked so familiar to me so I looked him up. Ferdinand Kingsley. Yup, he looks like his dad.
He does! He played the head chef to Queen Victoria in “Victoria” (originally BBC, I think) a few years ago, with Jenna Coleman in the titular role.
-
Ooh, that was a good episode! I remember from the very first ep of the series that Shetland still has traditions related to their Norse background (eg the Up Helly Aa festival), so I wonder if the tattoo symbol and the corn doll are connected to those traditions.
Very much enjoying Tosh leading the investigation. And Billy is always your guy if you need chips, or a hot cup of tea and a scone!

For free trips to Shetland, visit Google Earth and let the little yellow man take you down some of the roads and to scenic vistas.
I’ve done that - I actually found the police station and the exterior of Jimmy’s house 😄

I watched the second episode this morning. Anybody else? I enjoyed it.
I didn’t twig at first that the older woman who was forced to help the wounded hitman was the same one with the dead sheep.
I snorted when Tosh and the Procurator both turned to look at DI Calder when Cal gave her as his alibi 🤣🤣
I wonder if Calder’s brother and his wife are involved somehow in Ellen’s case (oh who am I kidding? Everyone’s involved somehow, that’s how it always works 😄)
I’m enjoying seeing Tosh running the investigation.

What’s he saying here? 😄
There was a scene from a few seasons ago - I think it was when Cassie was going to uni in Glasgow, and she was being followed - and Jimmy saw the guy in the restaurant and told him to stop following his daughter or he’d rip his f*cking eyes out. I loved that scene 🤣

My husband and I have visited similar islands (Faroe, Orkney, Iceland, though not Shetland) so are used to (and love) that bleak scenery.
I follow a crofter on Twitter (I’ll never call it X 😄) who lives on the isle of Lewis in the Outer Hebrides, and the photos that he posts show a similar lack of trees.
My family and I visited Cape Breton Island in Nova Scotia 🇨🇦 this summer, and its landscape and coastline is similar to Shetland and many parts of Scotland. Probably how Nova Scotia got its name! Anyway, the big difference being that Cape Breton is heavily forested. If I knew how to post a picture here, I would.

I liked the first ep, even without Jimmy. I have to admit being a little shocked at hearing Mrs Hughes use the f-word 😳😄 Looking forward to next week!

Inspector Lewis - General Discussion
in Inspector Lewis
I’m rewatching *again* since I finally watched Inspector Morse, and I wanted to see any Easter eggs - in the first couple of episodes there are several, but I think they diminish as the series comes into its own.
Laurence Fox is an ass but Hathaway is so good.
