Some of My 30 Day Richard Armitage Challenge Answers

I've been doing the "30 Day Richard Armitage Challenge" on Facebook and I'm now on Day #11. Just for fun I thought I would post a few of my answers here once in a while as the 30 days counts down.

(Speaking of countdowns, The Hobbit starts filming again after February 4, according to several sources, for 100 days. Don't you just love countdowns? Should I have another countdown clock?)

Question #9: A Scene That Made Me Cry

Beware - Spoilers if you haven't seen Spooks Season #9

Question #10: Your Favorite Character Pics

There are two, maybe three, pics here that are not Lucas North - can you spot them?

Question #11: Your Favorite Body Part(s)

Ooooh! Really like the collage of fav body parts, Fabo. Richard's a man of many parts and they're all divine:) Not that I've spent much time focusing on any aspect other than his intriguing brain.*cough,cough* haha

Hope you're enjoying a lovely wkend.
My best, Ricrar

Those scenes with Lucas and Ruth are amazing. He's such an enigma right to the end - he's either the gentlest psychopath you've ever met or a really good person having a really bad psychotic break. They make me cry too.

Hi Anonymous

Thank you for your comments. You made me think of those scenes in a slightly different way, because you're right, Lucas is so gentle with her and don't you feel a true affection between the two characters. Great point you make, not the actions we would expect.

When I watch the scenes between Richard and Nicola in S9 I really regret the writers didn't write more scenes for just the two of them, because they have great chemistry together, I don't mean Ruth as love interest to Lucas, but as colleagues and friends. He needed someone to partner with on the Grid after Ros.

I find those scenes with Ruth and Lucas/John hard to watch-which I'm sure is a testament to the acting abilities of both Richard Armitage and Nicola Walker.

Your collage for your favorite character pictures inspired me to do the same! Love it! I'm going to have to give the body part question some thought! ;)

Hannibal: Season 3 Review by Eric Goldman Love crime -IGN

And wow, was this version of Red Dragon awesome. Yes, it streamlined some aspects – we didn’t get any of the Dolarhyde flashbacks (one tiny glimpse aside) and Will’s role was altered, to some extent. But this was creepy, intense storytelling through and through, with Richard Armitage bringing just the right mix of scary and semi-sympathetic as Francis Dolarhyde, a murderous, delusional monster who was at war with the potentially loving man somewhere deep inside him – a war amplified as Dolarhyde fell for the blind Reba (a strong Rutina Wesley), even as “the Dragon” was coming to life within him, compelling him to kill.

North & South and Spooks (MI-5) Win Top Spots in BBC America's Top British Drama's of All Time

North & South wins the #2 spot in BBC America Anglophenia Readers Poll of the 10 Best British TV Series of All Time.

I hope BBC America and PBS (US Public TV) will look at the results of this poll and will broadcast this wonderful series in the U.S. It aired only once in only select PBS stations back in 2005, I know because I was one of the lucky ones that saw it then. I don't recall that it ever aired on BBC America.

Also great news that Spooks or MI-5 in the U.S., won the #7 spot in the reader's poll. Another series that has never been allowed the time to find it's American audience on PBS or BBC America.

The time is now PBS and BBC America for US audiences to see these two great British programs.

For the results of the Anglophenia/BBC America poll click on the link below:

"The Hobbit" Question of the Month: Sexy Dwarves or Bearded Dwarves?

Unless you've been under a rock lately you know that Peter Jackson and "The Hobbit" group have been very busy making casting announcements about the film. Because of the casting of several very attractive actors (talented actors all) for the Middle-earth dwarves (Richard Armitage, Aidan Turner, and others) there's quite an interesting discussion developing between Tolkien purists and fans of the actors in question, or just movie fans in general about whether the look of the Middle-earth dwarves should remain true to the book, or maybe changed to provide some eye candy for us ladies.

There's a marvelous and very funny article all about this issue on www.theonering.net by Maegwen. You can read the entire article by clicking HERE.

I was just inspired by the article and RA Central (on Twitter) to post the unscientific poll below. So how about it world, do we want sexy dwarves in Middle-earth or hairy, long-bearded, dwarves?
