#this house

I heard it’s pretty good (despite its flaws ofc lol, and I mean it is technically a historical dramatisation of real life events, like ofc historical events have to be dramatised for storytelling purposes lol, but I digress)

But…..the thing is….I’m anti-monarchy (as in, I do not give a SINGLE fuck about the Royal Family, and I say this as a British person myself btw, like honestly the Royal Family can DO ONE 🖕🖕🖕)

Buuuuuuuutttttt-

1)) The series was created by Peter Morgan (who also wrote the “Michael Sheen as Tony Blair” film trilogy, which includes the films; “The Deal” (2003), “The Queen” (2006), and “The Special Relationship” (2010), and I absolutely LOVE Michael Sheen and I’ve been meaning to check out the trilogy soon!)

2)) Charles Edwards is in it. No notes. (I love Charles Edwards)

3)) To expand on my last point, almost EVERY. SINGLE. BRITISH. ACTOR. AND. ACTRESS. IS. IN. THIS. BLOODY. SERIES.

4)) British Queer Playwright James Graham (who also wrote the plays “This House” and “Best of Enemies” (both also starring Charlie Edwards) among other plays, as well as writing the film “Coalition” (2015), among other stuff too) also wrote for an episode of the show too, sooo…….

5)) Jonny Lee Miller……as John Major. No further notes. (HE’S ACTUALLY SO HOT AS JOHN MAJOR WHAT THE ACTUAL FU-) (also apparently THERES A SPITTING IMAGE REFERENCE IN THE SHOW???)

6)) the British comedy revue Beyond the Fringe (Peter Cook, Dudley Moore, Alan Bennett, Jonathan Miller) is in an episode of the show, which is very cool :D!! (as a fan of British Comedy, I am pleased to hear that they have a cameo in this series ☺️☺️❤️❤️)

7)) Bertie Carvel……as Tony Blair (honestly he looks aLOT like Tony Blair frfr, perfect casting there 💯💯. Plus Bertie Carvel honestly looks a lot more like Tony Blair than he does look like Nick Clegg in “Coalition” (2015) lmao 🤣)

Soo….mhmmmm…..I *might* possibly check out this series maybe?

idk really lol, but do let me know your thoughts on this people!!

The basic elements of This House’s sound will be familiar to anyone who followed G.W. Sok’s career before. A furious clangor of box-y drums, barbed wire guitar play and hoarse, poetic shouted lyrics all point towards the Ex, the long-running art-punk band that Sok left in 2008. His partner, Ignacio Córdoba, adds electronics here, in line with his own work, but the music mostly lurches and spasms with fierce, rhythmic punk intelligence. A couple of shadowy interludes — acoustic “Introduction to Poetry” and the ominous title track — hint at a less frenetic iteration of This House, but mostly these cut rattle with whip-sharp, multi-layered rhythms. Every element, not just drums, builds a beat architecture, jittery, not-quite comfortable setting for the songs.
