🚨🤬 New angry Bertie news: he's set to appear in the film adaptation of Ink, the play for which he won an Olivier and a Tony, but he won't reprise his title role as Rupert Murdoch, because Danny Boyle wanted a "proper Aussie", so he will play Hugh Cudlipp (the editor of The Mirror).
Guys, should I check out the tv series “The Crown” ?
I heard it’s pretty good (despite its flaws ofc lol, and I mean it is technically a historical dramatisation of real life events, like ofc historical events have to be dramatised for storytelling purposes lol, but I digress)
But…..the thing is….I’m anti-monarchy (as in, I do not give a SINGLE fuck about the Royal Family, and I say this as a British person myself btw, like honestly the Royal Family can DO ONE 🖕🖕🖕)
Buuuuuuuutttttt-
1)) The series was created by Peter Morgan (who also wrote the “Michael Sheen as Tony Blair” film trilogy, which includes the films; “The Deal” (2003), “The Queen” (2006), and “The Special Relationship” (2010), and I absolutely LOVE Michael Sheen and I’ve been meaning to check out the trilogy soon!)
2)) Charles Edwards is in it. No notes. (I love Charles Edwards)
3)) To expand on my last point, almost EVERY. SINGLE. BRITISH. ACTOR. AND. ACTRESS. IS. IN. THIS. BLOODY. SERIES.
4)) British Queer Playwright James Graham (who also wrote the plays “This House” and “Best of Enemies” (both also starring Charlie Edwards) among other plays, as well as writing the film “Coalition” (2015), among other stuff too) also wrote for an episode of the show too, sooo…….
5)) Jonny Lee Miller……as John Major. No further notes. (HE’S ACTUALLY SO HOT AS JOHN MAJOR WHAT THE ACTUAL FU-) (also apparently THERES A SPITTING IMAGE REFERENCE IN THE SHOW???)
6)) the British comedy revue Beyond the Fringe (Peter Cook, Dudley Moore, Alan Bennett, Jonathan Miller) is in an episode of the show, which is very cool :D!! (as a fan of British Comedy, I am pleased to hear that they have a cameo in this series ☺️☺️❤️❤️)
7)) Bertie Carvel……as Tony Blair (honestly he looks aLOT like Tony Blair frfr, perfect casting there 💯💯. Plus Bertie Carvel honestly looks a lot more like Tony Blair than he does look like Nick Clegg in “Coalition” (2015) lmao 🤣)
Soo….mhmmmm…..I *might* possibly check out this series maybe?
idk really lol, but do let me know your thoughts on this people!!
That is all. That is the post.

Clan MacDougall serving under Alasdair Mac Colla in 1644-45, supporting the royalist cause in Scotland.
David Shields won Best Performance in a Play for this at the 2024 UK Theatre Awards -- if I could go to London to see this, I would! I know at least 3 people planning to go, and I'm green with envy!

Got bored, transcribed the lyrics to Splinter from First Edition (to the best of my abilities)
I'll take whatever your dirty mouth can ask And I'll take the splinters, If you only miss my eyes And we can hold the fire We can hold the fire We can hold the fire till it burns out We can only fire We can only fire We held the fire till it burned out And I can take the cutting And if you only miss my heart I braved the winters, I did everything you asked Still have the splinter, But it never left a mark There's no way There's no way You can be And all I ask You can be And all I ask And I'm just passing through, It won't be the last Now you're running down the front path, Holding all I have And I can't take the cutting, And if you only miss my heart If it all amounts to nothing, And I'll always wear the scars 'Cause I always took the cutting, And you only missed my heart Although it amounts to nothing, The nothing's left it's mark I'll walk you to the darkest corner I'll walk you to the darkest corner
