Jayne: Yeah, that was some pretty risky sittin' you did there. Wash: That's right, of course, 'cause they wouldn't arrest me if we got boarded, I'm just the pilot. I can always say I was flying the ship by accident.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I suspect Emma Thompson would agree whole-heartedly.
Well she did marry the actor who played Willoughby.

Yummy Greg Wise. Who I just saw in Cranford. Cranford is AWESOME, that is if you like period drama produced with great intelligence and love and acted by the cream of England's actors. Also, it passes and indeed surpasses the Bechdel test. I recommend it wholeheartedly.

Cranford is incredible! Although I did suffer from a big-time case of WTF? when I realized that the older doctor is played by John Bowe, the oozes-with-sex-appeal weaver from Precious Bane and George Marlowe, the serial killer from the first Prime Suspect. When did he get old?
For that matter, when did I???

You know who else oozes sex appeal unexpectedly? James Nesbitt in Jekyll, that's who.
I loved that mini as much as the aforementioned costume dramas that are among my favorites.
Stills just don't do it justice. The movement of Nesbitt's face, in both characters, is mesmerizing.

I still haven't seen the second Cranford series, but I hope it will repeat on PBS.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I don't think there's anything that unexpected about Nesbitt's hotness in Jekyll. He was attractive in Murphy's Law, and you add an Angelus to that? Hello, papi.

Jekyll was awesome. I added it to my Netflix queue because John Rogers told me to.

I haven't seen Murphy's Law yet. Must remedy that.
