The Saint: The Well Meaning Mayor (2.12, ITC, 1963)
"Well, that's the best I can do."
"That's fine, fine."
"It's obvious to anyone who looks at you that you've been in a fight!"
"Mrs. Purdell, I'm - I'm sorry if you disapprove."
"Mr. Templar, I think you're both out of your minds."
#the saint#the well meaning mayor#itc#1963#leslie charteris#robert banks stewart#jeremy summers#roger moore#leslie sands#mary kenton#norman bird#mandy miller#noel trevarthen#cameron hall#kenneth henry#david morrell#robert sansom#john gill#walter sparrow#ian wallace#@thisbluespirit if you haven't seen this one then i suggest you do so‚ if only for the culture clash that is The Saint entering a world#belonging more rightly to Sir John Wilder. Simon is in little england (the fictional Seatondean to be precise) where a mayoral election is#being contested amid accusations of corruption. the source of this swindling? concrete! it's a 60s concrete tv episode! happy days#on one side we have incumbent mayor Leslie Sands; a late developer as a screen actor (he'd only been acting a few years at this point)#Sands would have his own starring series in Cluff a few years later (like Wilmer's Sherlock Holmes‚ Cluff began as a pilot play in the#series Detective). opposite him is Norman Bird‚ made up to look older than he actually was (he wasn't even 40 at this point but like#Richard Vernon he seemed to be perpetually middle aged). another well staged fight scene and some unlikely high wire walking on a#construction site make up for a rather sad looking studio beach set and an appalling performance by an uncredited child who discovers a#crashed car ('MUM LOOKAT THISS'). the rest of the cast are ill served by a script which really only bothers with Templar and Sands#but it's not a bad episode by any means. a nice change of pace from international jet setting. more shows should feature concrete..

no cause do you guys realize how fucking broken Walter would be if he saw how everything turned out? if he saw how much Lark hated himself? the change from hyper little kid to self loathing soldier obsessed with redeeming himself from a mistake he made as a child?? if he saw how much Grant STILL hadn’t changed?? still relied on pain as a way to ground himself?? years later still ignoring his emotions in favor of the path of least resistance? if he saw how broken Nick was?? how he’s still divided between homes, with little to no support from either side, even though he has 3x the amount of parents he technically started with?? God don’t even get me started on TJ. fuck if Walter could just sit that boy down and tell him to stop trying so hard to be a step-dad and does he remember nothing about how Ron finally won him over and just to be there for Scary even if he’s not good at it?? And Sparrow. Fuck. Seeing Sparrow still so afraid of his own anger and still trying to be the mediator and still trying to pretend things are okay even when they’re so blatantly not?? and last but not fucking least. You cannot tell me that if Walter knew that the boys didn’t speak to each other. and had raised their kids not to know each other, separate from a support system they had to know they would eventually need he would be fucking livid. this coming from someone who’s wife and son left him because he was cursed. this coming from someone who found a family in an adopted homunculus and five young boys who just needed a bit of guidance and someone to believe in them. knowing these five boys who gave Walter a family when he had been alone for so long had abandoned each other would fucking destroy him and you know it.

A Cheerful-Sparrow Feathursday
Among the most cheerful birds in our neighborhood are the common House Sparrow (Passer domesticus) and the Dark-eyed Junco (Junco hyemalis). I wake up every morning with the House Sparrows on my porch telling me to chirrup! And as I walk to work, the Juncos flitting about close to the ground, with their white tail bars and their tiny chipping calls, just starts the day off right.
Both are sparrows, but the House Sparrow, a year-long resident here, is an Old World sparrow (family Passeridae), introduced into North America in the 1850s.The Junco is an indigenous New World sparrow (family Passerellidae). They breed much further north in summer, and while they do winter in our region, in Milwaukee I tend to see them only in spring and fall as they move through. For me, they are harbingers of the changing seasons.
The images shown here are from a 1930 painting by American nature artist Walter Alois Weber reproduced in Bird Portraits in Color by the American physician and ornithologist Thomas Sadler Roberts and published by the University of Minnesota Press in the 1934. The volume includes 92 color plates by five wildlife artists illustrating 295 North American species. 
The two birds in the upper left of this plate are male breeding adult and fall immature male Juncos; in the upper right are male and female House Sparrows; at bottom on the ground are female breeding adult and juvenile Juncos.

Sketches of Walter and his kids based on my recent Walter hc post
(Description in Alt and copied down below)
[id: Digital sketches featuring Walter the Immoral interacting with his son Paeden and the other season one kids. The sketch on the left shows Walter standing in front his shop with Paeden. His son hangs off one of his arms on the right while grinning. A shop sign above them has a new label that says now family run. The sketch on the top right shows a weeping Lark hugging Walter tightly, sitting in between the frog mans heavily bandaged thighs. Walter hugs him back with a tearful smile. The caption says that there is nothing to apologize for and that he is glad he kept all the kids safe. The center right sketch occurs before the top scene and shows Walter sitting down in a chair and being hugged on all sides by all the kids. Nick and Sparrow are on the left and Lark and Grant are on the right with Terry Junior hugging from the back. All of them are smiling and the caption says I love you at the bottom. The last scene on the bottom right shows a little brick home with three windows and door with the workshop on one side and an outhouse and bath building on the other. There is a lantern resting on a high pole nearby and the caption below says lantern is on and welcome home. id]

The message about Henry being the unsung hero possibly appearing in front of Lark during the final battle of season 1 is a little funny to me because Terry Jr. and Grant were both sitting near Lark to act as the navigator and backseat driver.
“… Hey Lark, what’s that about—“
“I’m sure it’s nothing! (Slams foot on gas)”
