Morckin’ about still. I blame the One Show…

I meant for him to look angrier… but maybe it’s Rachel who has woken him up from napping al desko… and, off guard, he’s sleepily pleased to see her. (Slow-burning all the way… 🔥).

Well then we should all thank The One Show for the inspiration.

Beardylicious.

📷 Beautiful reference edit of Netflix's Dept. Q by @pleasereadmeok and marker pen brushes; study/style inspiration from #renasketches. Still need a lot of work on my square brush game but enjoying playing with them.

Still thinking about Morving ❤️ Just in case anyone was wondering…

'Morving' 🤦‍♀️ Of course that is THE ship name. Can't even remember my crappola attempt 😂

Say it with me now -

MORVING!!

Carl ❤️ Rachel.

(Well, he pings her phone so he can tell her about his dreams… and that’s pretty much the same thing.)

Having their Pride and Prejudice moment with a PS filter 🤣

The Matthew Goode Dept. Q interview bingo card

I am hoping we are going to get some interviews with Matthew promoting Netflix Dept. Q (streaming on 29 May!)

I thought it would be fun to play "Matthew Goode interview bingo" on these occasions so I made a card with what I thought he might say or do. I hope you enjoy it. Have I missed anything?

Btw, this is not about poking fun, this is a love letter really to Matthew in interviews. He is an exhilarating mix of incisive comments that make you think, adorable body language (the boy can't sit still), hilarious digressions and very endearing character traits (his enduring love for his family, his humility and self-deprecation, and his generosity towards the people he works with). This serves to make his interviews the best I have seen.

I love this man. Please never change Matthew 💝

Here are the words on the card for those A need a translation

MENTIONS / SAYS – an incisive comment, my wife Sophie, my kids, GOLF, I was terrified, timbre & cadence, "fwisson" of attraction, I would rather be at home, I hope I didn't mess that up, everyone is lovely, thank you very much, did I mention GOLF?, it was fun, I don't do method, I'm gonna be found out, great hair!, I'm so grateful to Scott, wormholes, my brain is like a sieve, homework, what was my point?, I can't say.

DOES – goofy faces, digress widely, bite his lips, laugh heartily, imitate someone, sit like a five-year-old, ruffle his hair, touch his face, wild hand movements, cuss, giggle, drink tea / coffee / water.

WEARS – a blue cashmere jumper, a beanie.

I think we will get this ⬇️ in some form or the other but of course Matthew will be utterly brilliant.
