Tenth doctor's costume

And I was geeking about Edwardian suits just the other day while watching Raffles. Or was it Reilly: Ace of Spies?

And Raffles, if you can get ITV3.

Snooker's too artificial an environment for that sort of thing.

Funnily enough, I was thinking about Raffles last night, because Christopher Strauli was on in Fortunes of War on BBC4.

I only noticed that Fortunes of War was on round about the third episode, and I'm kicking myself.

Oh, sorry, I did sort of think about advertising it, but I think only halfway through the first episode, which I didn't notice myself until just before it started...

No worries, it's bound to turn up again. And it's not like I don't have teetering stacks of DVDs to work through...

Gave me an idea for this... which I hope is too obscure to be obvious.

I think that there is a first name in common.

(And beautiful icon, btw.)

Thanks! I meant obscure to those who wouldn't have it in mind... though I was tempted to stick with Nos 1 and 3 and call it Alias Smith and Jones.

I'd quite forgotten how much I love Charles Kay (http://www.open2.net/open2static/source/file/root/31/28/128829/rhs_balkan_trilogy.jpg). I saw him on stage a couple of years before that - playing a politician in Harley Granville Barker's Waste. And I cast him in a B7 story I've never finished. Maybe seeing him in action again will prompt me to go back to it.

Pendleton!

He's everywhere! I'm fairly sure I first came across him playing Charles I in a TV play, though that doesn't seem to be listed on IMDB. I'd completely forgotten he played Louis VII in The Devil's Crown, though now I'm reminded I can hear his voice in it.

Hm, I should have a Charles Kay icon, though I've now hit 100 so I'm having to start deleting again. I just need to come up with the right caption.
