An Englishman Abroad (BBC, 1983)
"The average Englishman, you see, is not interested in ideas. Say what you like about political theory. No one will listen. You could shove a whole slice of the Communist manifesto into the Queen's Speech. Nobody would turn a hair. Least of all, I suspect, HMQ."
To celebrate upcoming new season of my favorite series, Jago & Litefoot, I painted Mr. Trevor Baxter, who we all miss very much. I am sure he'd be happy for Prof. Litefoot continuing his infernal investigating. The reference for this painting can be found @bigfinishprod feed if scroll down a few years.

I listened to some of Jago & Litefoot series 12 today. Some good vampire-based villainy and some creepy magical paintings, all found in the seedier corners of Victorian London.

I’ve been listening to them sparingly because there are only a small number left to hear for the first time.
With Trevor Baxter’s passing, I heartily recommend listening to this lovely little clip, the trailer for his recent Short Trip, “The Jago & Litefoot Revival.”
It was released this past March, and it’s probably about the last thing he ever recorded. I think it’ll make you smile. (Or, possibly, cry.)
