I’m a little teapot short and stout

Since we do not know how long Siegfried's other relationship may last in ACGAS S7, I continue to think about possible interesting characters that Audrey might encounter in the meantime - and about the actors who might play opposite Anna in various short storylines.

Dean Lennox Kelly is such an actor.

I've seen Mr. Kelly in a few different pieces in the last few years. It occurred to me recently that he is eligible to be another of my fantasy picks for a guest actor spot in ACGAS S7. I've noticed that Kelly plays comedy very well; so he & Anna in a brief humorous story might be quite fun.

I am still thinking about a nice friendly chap that Audrey Hall might hang out with while Mr. F is occupied elsewhere.

How about a guest stint by actor Julian Ovenden?

Here is another wishlist type ACGAS guest appearance thought: actor Chris Reilly

I've been impressed with Chris' acting chops in Call the Midwife & The Last Post. I saw online that he's also been a recurring character in Slow Horses.

Okay, my latest crazy guest appearance wish for ACGAS S7 - to play opposite the lovely Anna Madeley - is actor Elliot Cowan.

I mean if Siegfried is going to hang around an 'Audrey' clone, then why can't we have a 'Siegfried' look-alike for Audrey ??? 😉😁🤨

Another ACGAS guest actor dream wish for a possible S7 Audrey Hall storyline:

I really like what Anna says in this article about her character Mrs Hall. I really want S7 to show Audrey seeking out her own happiness and finding adventure. Audrey deserves interests outside of Skeldale and independent of the people that she has cared for, helped, and sacrificed for over the years.

I'd love to see her open and operate her own business or pursue an activity that brings her an additional sense of fulfillment and joy. It would be nice if some of the S7 writing showed more of the women characters in stories separate and apart from their connections to the male vets.

Anna goes on to say that Mrs Hall is a fully realized character - one "who has a proper story behind her and a history that informs who she is." It would definitely be interesting to learn more about Audrey's history and story.

This is my final post about the weird CS episode in S6. I have the need to ask a few more questions and then I'll shut-up.

(A) Photos 1&2: so Dot is the faux Audrey with almost same dress, hair, profile as Aud. The real Audrey served up the fake 'mudrey' on a platter to Siegfried just like with the murkey substitute for the real thing. Will we ever get a fuller explanation / better understanding of why Audrey dished up another woman for him ???

(B) Photos 3&4: we've known for a while that Siegfried can be a turkey (affectionate) and in this episode, it seems the prize gobbler is the symbol for him. Audrey wins the prize (Siegfried?) with her determination, patience, practice, and skill; but her turkey ends up in a different role. Also, we know S is Jimmy's playmate & pet - just as the poultry version of S (Rudolph) ends up being. Is this foreshadowing that Jimmy may once again be instrumental in providing some insights & truths for S in the future ???

(C) Photos 5&6: after Dot arrives at the pub, none of the other characters even acknowledge her. Maggie squeezes by S&D as the pair are gazing at one another in an almost embrace. Maggie doesn't give them a glance or a second thought it seems. Not sure Maggie would know or remember Dot from 8 years before; yet it doesn't appear to phase her that Mr F is with some strange woman. When S&D enter the darts area together, Audrey is the only person to greet Dot while Tris & Charlotte & James all behave similarly to Maggie - totally ignoring that S rejoins them with a woman in tow. It's all a bit odd. Were these non-interactions and non-notices of Dot scripted as intentional non-actions for a reason ???

(D) Photos 7: Even in this last group photo of the gang at the pub toasting the end of war and a brighter future, Dot is almost out of frame way to the right in the camera shot and at the back of the crowd where Maggie, James, Jimmy, Audrey, Tris and Charlotte don't see her and like Dot is not one of them. Again, was this scene blocked out this way on purpose ???

Even after four viewings of the S6 CS, I still can't quite determine what these few seconds in the kitchen scene might be conveying to the audience.

Audrey has that kooky grin and is stroking the rabbit somewhat oddly. Was it just an attempt at humor and nothing more - or what ??

This is my third and final (I think) fantasy guest star wish.

IF - in S7- we have to endure Siegfried with the gal from S1 who surprised him, then I really need to have Audrey in a S7 story that involves a very charming, dashing & handsome character.
