#OTD in 1995 – Father Ted was broadcast for the first time.
A television programme offers to interview Father Ted Crilly. However Ted goes to extreme lengths to ensure the other members of the clergy on the island don’t interrupt his moment in the spotlight. Meanwhile Craggy Island hosts Fun Land, a fun fair to which Dougal is desperate to go. Ted takes the film crew to the fair, leading to a massive mess.
(insert vague late-night flailing) This thing was supposed to be over! Now it seems to have turned itself on again. The fault's apparently being caused by a disagreement between two apps at our ebook store, and I can't turn either of them off, as they're both vital. [sigh] Time to open a service ticket, I guess.
Meanwhile, WTH, if you want one of these 36-ebooks-by-DD packages at the more deeply discounted price, go on, go for it! (helpless laughter) Somebody may as well get something out of this... :)
Been listening to Sherlock & Co. and it’s gotten me through my last couple tremulous weeks of college so ofc I had to do a bit of fanart @docjwatsonmdblog
I like that Granada Holmes not only portrays Holmes as a real person with real feelings, but it also shows how he hides those feelings. He's stood behind in this scene, not letting anyone see him cry.
I love, too, that we see multiple instances in Granada Holmes of Holmes' love of the arts.
Canon (Arthur Conan Doyle) Sherlock: Watson, you are my dearest friend. People are in trouble; we must assist them. Do not worry, I will solve this peculiar crime. I am tormented by this puzzle; I shall sit before the fire, smoke my pipe and think about it. I might try cocaine, IDK. Let's ruminate on it.
Elementary Sherlock: Joan, we are partners through and through; I like you and I respect you. Here's breakfast. Someone is in trouble, let's help them even if it comes at a personal cost. Eat the rich. Screw your profit margins. Arrest the incels. I'm feeling bad; I'm going to a group meeting for support.
BBC Sherlock: *flips table* Watson, you idiot. Your jumpers are ugly. Shopping at the supermarket is for poors. No, I won't explain myself. Bend to my will, fools. I did it for your benefit. My sister's smarter than me but she's a weak woman and can't handle her own intelligence; it drove her mad so off to jail with her. Ugh, women. iM a PsChYoPATH!
Guy Ritchie Sherlock: *accuses Mrs Hudson of trying to poison him when all she did was bring him tea, spitefully calls her Nanny when all she does is take care of him* Watson, let's fuck, but ironically.
