Rewatching "North and South" BBC 2004 production again (2nd?) time this year and it's still sooo good 😭👌😩
I love everything about it.
I love the characters, the storytelling, the music, the scenery.
Also, how funny of Fanny(?) when she looked at Margaret with pity "I wonder how you can exist without a piano" 😂😂 comedy gold.

[Merlin LEGO set idea proposed by lego user PrimeMerlinian in 2014] "Filled with magic, action, and monsters, Merlin would be a perfect addition to LEGO. This set is loosely based on the episode “The Fires of Idirsholas,” in which the villainous Morgana releases a group of ghost knights (the Knights of Medhir) to attack Camelot. The main feature of the set is Gaius’ iconic room, which also includes Merlin’s room at the back. The setting is spacious and show accurate, with lots of potions and books to recreate the feel and ambiance of Merlin’s place of residence. I attempted to replicate the show’s architecture in my building style. Included are several show accurate elements and play features such as: the entrance; a hiding place under Merlin’s bed where he keeps his Sidhe Staff and magic book; the stone dog Merlin brings to life in “Valiant”; a function to blast Gaius (or anyone you choose) through the railing of the second floor; one of the shield snakes from “Valiant”; and, of course, the sword Excalibur. Five minifigures are included: Merlin (with Sidhe Staff), Arthur Pendragon (with Excalibur), Morgana, Gaius, and two Knights of Medhir (with swords). This set would allow Merlin fans to reenact many key moments of the show in LEGO form, as well as create their own stories in a land of myth. If you want LEGO Merlin to become a reality, please support, and thank you for reading!"

Thick of It/Ghosts crossover where Adam's evil homophobic grandfather dies and he and Fergus are going through his stuff and finds pics of the Captain but he's never heard of this man before even though they're clearly related so he does a bit of digging and decides to visit the Button House guesthouse and make Alison scream.
And then they go digging through the House because they're both pricks and don't have boundaries, and find Mike's ghost board and are like what, and meanwhile the ghosts are going nuts assuming Cap has some secret great grandchild even though Cap insists that is Literally Impossible for Unspecified Reasons.
And also at one point they realise it's the house Julian died in and Fergus is a bit creeped out about dead doppelgangers and dead politicians and weird shit that keeps happening around them while Adam thinks he's an idiot and they do the classic asshole couple in a haunted house thing.
And eventually it turns out that Adam is Cap's great nephew, and his brother never spoke of him after his death, and one of the reasons his evil grandad was so evil to him was because he's the spit of him and also attracted to men (which are the only two things they have in common lol) and his grandfather hated the fact that Cap's legacy had lived on despite everything they'd done to try and erase him from their family history.

new doctor who can have every gay member of the actors guild in its cast for all I care but i'm not budging on my distrust of rtd. I REMEMBER martha and mickey and how they were written/treated, and it still brings freema to tears in interviews to this day, so I'm not gonna give a shit about cast announcements until I know there are people capable of writing characters of colour with empathy in that writers room and the cast of colour are going to be looked out for in the writing of the show.

I'm I shambles, I'm in bits. I forgot how much beautiful pain and love also is in North and South and how much deaths 😭
It's like so obvious and heart-warming how people care for each other.
Bessie and Margaret's deep friendship, Dixon's (the housekeeper) undying devotion for Margaret's mother, how Margaret and her father take care of Mr Higgins after Bessie's death.., obviously the love of Thornton's mother for her son and how she is stern all the time but melts when it comes to John... the Hale's family's love for each other And the mutual respect between Mr Higgins and Thornton as they finally work together.
There's so much of the very human and heartfelt interactions I love about this!

With the rather large slate of k-drama romances with past-lives subplot going on right now, my neurodivergent brain just connected something that I've got to get out of it:
Why is it only the modern dramas that have the past-lives subplot? What? People living in the Joseon Dynasty or Silla kingdom (thanks Moon in the Day) didn't have past lives too? Did reincarnation only exist after 0 CE or something?

Is it just me who just cannot understand the theory that all of the ghosts will be sucked off at the end of the show?
The only ghost that has moved on in the show has been Mary, with the six saying that this was largely because Katy wanted to leave the show to do other things. They've also said that the rules behind moving are is that 1) it could happen at any time 2) beyond some unspecified healing of unsettled trauma there is little to no know reason as to why moving on happens.
This means that the idea of "sucking off" furthers the show's credibility as an allegory for life; no one knows how much time they have left.
So why would it make sense for all of the ghosts to move on when its seemingly a very random occurrence? Especially within the realms of the show where the whole concept has always been about a group of people stuck in the in-between forever. So why undo that in the final act?
The show begins with Mike and Alison moving into the house bringing excitement and new possibilities for the ghosts, but they will eventually leave and the ghosts will be left alone, again. Think of things in regards to Robin's timescale. He has been in purgatory for millions of years. Mike and Alison are nothing but a blip for him, a passing obsession. They arrive and then they leave, and the ghosts remain stuck where they are.

Alright i have my own issues with the execution of it but i think the captains death really is the perfect example of how the tragedy of the ghosts as a story works in that we are allowed to meet these people and get to know them and get to see them grow before we are ever allowed to know HOW they became the people we met originally
We are allowed, by virtue of story structure, to contextualize and then recontextualize the different aspects of the ghosts, putting their lives and deaths in separate boxes until we get a meeting of context that impacts or changes our view of that character, for example, the swagger stick
Like any story can give a character a backstory and secrets etc but the premise of these characters already being dead and constantly reiterating that "you stays how you dies" forces you to acknowledge the permanence of the traumatic things that have happened to them
The tragedy in this case comes not from the fact that something bad will happen to them and they cannot change that but from the fact that the bad thing has already happened and they cannot change anything that came before it
