Wow. That's a powerful advert. Not only the visuals and the music, but when Chris intonates his voice in the way that he does, it adds even more gravity to it and makes you pay attention. What a gifted man. And, as per usual, I admire the way he had no qualms about lending his talent to stand up for what he believes in. 42 days without charge? Ludicrous. They could snatch anybody... just anybody... and that's unacceptable in any civilized nation (I include my own here, our government has done this to a few people and I'm disgusted with them... of course... they don't care about the opinion of an Aboriginal... they like to shoot us and shut us up at every opportunity.) Well done, Chris and... gee... I forgot how much I miss the sound of his voice. Oh... where's the SLUTS thread again? I could get used to hearing that voice first thing... last thing... middle of the day... middle of the night... ok... I'm going... |

A thoroughly righteous article, but I don't like the slight towards the excellent and horrifying Red Riding as being "dark for the sake of it". Look, there are millions of Southern dramas, can't we accept two very different Northern dramas on their own merits rather than pitting them meaninglessly against each other? OFITN is a humane drama about people on the ground during a period of social change and Red Riding is a horrific drama about police corruption and the hunt for a serial killer. If these two shows were set in London, no-one would ever compare them. And for the record I do think OFITN is better, but largely because it's doing something more unique and unusual. They're two totally different shows... |
