I'm wrong in the head.

It's wrong of me to just be pausing through this new trailer, cursing the fact that there's not enough Ianto in it for me to properly assess the pie situation?
Actually, that wasn't hugely spoilery, was it? I didn't actually learn any more than I already learned from the set reports. The production values look quite good, but I'm sensing a frisson of shite in there somewhere, mostly coming from John Barrowman's facial expressions. Oh, and Ianto gets to have man on man kissing AND exposition dumping with his sister (I'm assuming that was his sister) who thinks he's a civil servant? Pardon me while I tick off the appropriate "impending death" boxes over here. If out of those "two and three" who got away, Ianto is indeed "three" and not "two", than he's definitely dead by the end of the episode. I would actually find it hugely entertaining if it turned out that Ianto was "two", I really don't know why. In fact, I think the question of which one is two and which is three is going to be my biggest thing when watching this. I get the feeling I may need the distraction. So, yeah. There's children and explosions. Wooo... big news.
Still no clue about when the hell it's on, though. Arsewipes.

Date: 2009-02-06 08:07 am (UTC)But during the nano-second of man-snogging I thought of you (now who's wrong in the head?) and I thought from what I could see of Ianto's face he did look slightly pie-affected.
I'm hoping it was just a not-very-flattering angle instead.
I prefer them to be thinking of Ianto as 'three' and therefore maybe less of a threat. Under-estimated Ianto is the most dangerous thing on the planet, and may just save his life.

Date: 2009-02-06 08:16 am (UTC)Gareth effectively said in his BBC Norfolk intreview - the audio one, not the written one - that Ianto "especially" has a lot more to do, so I'm not worried.
Still worried about the death rumour though.

Brilliance.

Date: 2009-02-06 08:18 am (UTC)Yeah, that's the look I was going for. I couldn't find a picture of him looking happy on my hard drive, and god knows it's quite full.

Date: 2009-02-06 08:27 am (UTC)Yes it is.
I think we paid too much attention to Gareth's underweight appearance in series 1 and now that he's 2 years away from turning 30, we have to face the fact that he's starting to lose his youthful puppiness. Funnily enough, even though Eve is thin and has a great bum, she also looks a little bigger around the face.

Date: 2009-02-06 10:10 am (UTC)Just a little problems with this theory. That scene is from episode two with Ianto and Rhiannon and we know from spoiler pics (with the clapper board information) that Ianto is in episodes three, four and five. So nope, no Ianto dying in episode two. Unless he does an Owen and comes back from the dead...
Kel is right; "one" is most definitely Jack and that lovely 'naked' corpse is Jack. JB did say he gets naked in s3 and can't get more naked than a skinless creature!
