Cat

Yes, the film and the stage musical are very distinct from each other, however, there are clear visual similarities between how the other primary characters shared between the film and the stage musical were costumed (David/ey, Medda, Crutchy/ie, Racetrack). And wouldn't you want your lead protagonist of all people to be easily recognizable by an audience who, in 2011, were familiar with him dressing a certain way?

i think dial drunk maps out this conversation he’s having with an officer because he called kath & kath hung up on him and he’s trying again but even the officer sees it’s useless

and i really do think that kath would eventually get tired and give up. sorry to the jatherine fans (of which i am one) i just think jack loves obsessively and self destructively
