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.

eta: added a descriptor to avoid an unfortunate association with a disease.

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

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.

I enjoyed the Cranfords but, watching the second one recently, I couldn't remember what had happened in the first at all! Possibly I am a little senile.

I thought that the first one was more memorable (I mean - it had Philip Glenister!)

OT:

Quester, that article sumi was referring to is Ultraviolet light reveals how ancient Greek statues really looked.

Glenister was fabulous, but Dench, Atkins and Staunton all at once? Bliss.

Random movie-related question: I was reading a review online, and the review went into detail about a surprising scene. But it's the first scene of the movie. People in the comments were like, "Thanks for ruining the movie! Now I won't even bother seeing it! How about a spoiler warning, jackass???"

So, what do you people think? If a surprise comes in the first few minutes, how bad is it to know that ahead of time?

Edit: Or I should say, how much of a spoiler is it? Because I know people have different opinions about spoilers....
