HAPPY 15TH ANNIVERSARY!!!!!

Here is just some of my favourite “gang” scenes to celebrate the first episode airing on October 7th 2006!

This show honestly changed my life, it stemmed a love for history, taught me that every man has a purpose in his life 😉, basically got me through high school and has stayed with me ever since.

I know this fandom is tiny, but the people in it are so special!

This is such a beautiful radio play with Sam Troughton and Peter Sullivan playing identical twins who are estranged until their parents’ death by COVID. It has everything: retirement homes, people not wearing masks, fear of hugging, bitterness, sibling rivalry, angst (buckets of it), reconciliation, Sam Troughton’s character crying on his brother’s shoulder. Everything. When I was thinking that the pandemic should at least give writers good ideas for scripts, I was sincerely hoping I’d come across something as relevant, personal and poignant as this play.
