Old Brit Telly Watchalong #1

[thisbluespirit]

The Old British TV Discord are having our first Watchalong, which I am (sort of) hosting

https://www.timeanddate.com/countdown/generic?iso=20221009T21&p0=1343&font=cursive

We are watching Thriller ep "Nurse Will Make It Better" (in which Diana Dors is actually Satan dressed as Mary Poppins who stalks the Home Counties terrorising Americans and Canadians in disguise as Americans, Patrick Troughton is unable to stop her due to being drunk, Michael Culver is causing road accidents and Ed Bishop is too nice to live for once.)

You can find it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jwy0xiZjDFo

The Discord invite is here if you're not already a member: https://discord.gg/HejYXPw8

(It is horror but it is non-scary enough that I am okay with it.)

Alfred Burke's face, apparently:

"He [a random Police Inspector] sensed at once that Richter had a capacity to charm that might cloud a man's judgement... Richter was too quiet, too urbane, with a face of that ascetic cast which is acquired by saints, librarians and aristocratic confidence tricksters... Perhaps aware of this himself, Richter had grown a beard, but it did little to hide his saintly expression..."

XD

That's brilliant.

He grew a beard to save us, but it was NOT ENOUGH!!

I will never be over "saints, librarians and aristocratic confidence tricksters." Does this mean I missed two alternative job opportunities???

Whenever possible, always become an aristocratic confidence trickster.
