Everyone watches MARIANNE as she plays and sings. Behind
them we see BRANDON entering. But he stays in the shadow of
the door and no one notices him. CLOSE on his face. He gazes
at MARIANNE with an unfathomable look of grief and longing.
He breathes in deeply. [x]

#zero to OH NO in eight seconds #starring colonel christopher(!) brandon #who resolutely sets up camp in the friend zone like I BELONG HERE #and when his friends are like ‘u should ask her out’ he’s still like NO. I BELONG HERE. #GONNA CARE FOR HER WELLBEING BUT FROM AN ACCEPTABLE AND CONSENTING DISTANCE#AND FADE THE FUCK AWAY #and lo he doth fade the fuck away #until marianne has to practically spell it out to him that she’s subscribed to his newsletter #most ardently subscribed to his entire back catalogue in fact#and she’s very interesting in hearing more thnk u (via @harrietvane)

Oh, dear God. 

I was relieved when Stephen Fry and I drew with 50% of the Anglophenia vote each. There, I thought. That’s the way to do it. Honour is satisfied, and I do not have to apologise to anyone, or worry or ever think about this thing again.

I think people in BBC America are having too much fun with this contest.

One vote?

ALAN FUCKING RICKMAN?

Neil Gaiman famously posted on his Tumblr that he didn’t stand a chance against Stephen Fry in their Round 1 battle. But the novelist triumphed over his “national treasure” opponent – by ONE vote. (There were more lead changes in this matchup than in Bush/Gore.) This could be a case of “out of the frying pan and into the fire,” as Gaiman now faces last year’s champion Alan Rickman (who beat Gary Oldman in Round 1).
