Thank goodness I’m not the only one this happened to!

Wednesday 22nd April on BBC1. Yay!

It was Terry. He was helping Rosa, and didn’t we see him In a bunny costume at the end. Plus who else would have been able to drag the filing cabinet along

I learned that from The Towering Inferno.

The ring was probably booked into evidence after they found her. And I’m sure gettting it back was the last thing on Lucy’s mind.

Sandi is posting regular YouTube videos that are mainly just her chatting about random things. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCL4mHvlV6UOggYiXM3lcAHw It feels like having coffee and a chat with a good friend.

Did Picard get a free pass for what he did as Locutus of Borg?

I’m watching it and enjoying the baking. I’m afraid I fast forward through the cancer stories. I’ve too many in my own family tree.

A trailer aired on BBC on Monday saying it was coming soon. If they don’t specify a date, it usually means in 2 to 3 weeks.

I don't know about the showrunner, but the cast have ample time between seasons to do other projects. Martin Compston had a series called Traces that aired in January and another (The Nest) is starting next week. Vicky McClure is in the Alex Rider tv series which is currently in post production. Adrien Dunbar is starring in Blood (second series currently airing). It's not like in the US where a full time gig on a tv show usually precludes an actor from having much time to spend on other projects. These three have been pretty busy outside of Line of Duty.

I would have been happy with any of the three as winner. I’m just glad that there were no disasters and everybody’s makes were more or less what they’d intended.

Claire was unlucky that she had to spend so much time on the second day trying to fix her build. She sacrificed so much of her design in favour of getting the build right and in the end it didn’t work. Personally I think she might have been better off getting the look of it right and having all her handles and bits I place. I think the judges would have looked more kindly on her if the toilet had looked more impressive, even if it still leaked. She ended up falling down on both the build (leaks) and the look (the final result looked very amateurish, IMO), and the judges made the right call to send her home.

#10 - the nanny and the valet both looked to be dead when they were found. # 12 - if it was a Garda uniform, it looked to be a fairly old one.

There was a warning for ‘full frontal nudity’ before the episode aired. Generally speaking, once the programme is aired after the 9pm watershed, and a warning is issued beforehand, its assumed that people are adults and can moderate their viewing accordingly. I did notice a lot of creative camera angles to ensure that a lot of the areas were hidden from view by conveniently placed vases etc.

I loved Rosa’s reaction to winning. So often the ‘winner of the week’ is all shocked and can’t possibly believe it’s them, so it was nice to see her jubilant reaction.

Abigail could be 20 years and six months. Two years ago - assuming it was an even 24 months - she could have been 18 years and six months. That’s a six month - at least - window for her to have been a legal adult, taken the videos, and split up with her boyfriend. He’s still a sleaze bag though.

That would be me. I watched the first few seasons of Greys and eventually realised that I just didn’t care enough about any of the characters. I started watching Station 19 in spite of the connection and just hoped they wouldn’t have too many crossover eps. And yes, it was a bit confusing wondering whether people were actual regular characters or just so many potential redshirts.

I am so glad I avoided spoilers for this ep. There may or may not have been a squeal of delight at this episodes returnee.

Chidi asked Hypatia how to pronounce her name and she said to just call her Patty.

The thread is clearly labelled with the series and episode number and it's marked 'unaired USA'. How much more of a spoiler alert do you need?

It sounds like a scene from Tipping the Velvet https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0324264/ I think it was a woman in a soldiers dress uniform, not a Mountie. There was definitely a strap on being used.

One thing I’m surprised they didn’t make more of. When Mother Mildred is telling the Turners about the island and the problem is that the nurses fall for the doctor and then get married and leave. She says that at least that wouldn’t be a problem with nuns. And I was wondering did she even know who she was talking to? There didn’t seem to be any sort of exchanges between the Turners to indicate that they were thinking of their own circumstances. I suppose it’s possible that with Mother Mildred having been out of the country, she may not have been aware of their history.

This reminds me of Mrs Purchase in the Toast of London comedy, who sleeps around but only ever charges her husband for sex. Sadly this means that as she's not considered a prostitute, her team gets disqualified from the 'Celebrities and Prostitutes Blow Football Tournament'.

I think that Joseph Gordon Levitt did the voice on the drama being listened to on a laptop. IIRC, he never appeared on screen.

I think Jonathan did remark on it but by the time there was a significant change he was too far in Dracula’s thrall to really question it. Just finished ep 2 and am picking my jaw up off the floor. Damn!
