Quick Gareth related question for y'all:

THIS THING.

[Poll #1252260]

Check as many boxes as you like. It's not for science or anything.

I've been ill. Feel somewhat better now. Thank you, Gareth.

Gratuitous Gareth picspam masquerading as pie update )

Last note of non-connected noteworthyness, this is [livejournal.com profile] griggharris' signed picture:



IT IRKS ME, that NOBODY at the BBC has, in the past year, taken it upon themselves to edit the shadows of the other cast member's coats out of these individual promo shots that they cut out of the group shot. IT'S LAZY AND STUPID AND WOULD ONLY TAKE TEN MINUTES IN PHOTOSHOP FFS! GRRRRRRRRRRRR!

As I was the one who first put the words "Gareth" and "pie" together in a sentence, I feel the onus is on me to keep abreast of the pie situation. So, bearing in mind the upcoming Who episodes, and the fact that they were filmed three months ago, I thought it would be good to analyse Gareth's pie status at the present time so we all don't get too depressed about his jawline while we watch the Who finale. Some people mentioned that he didn't look like he was laying off the pies last weekend at Abergavenny and TJ's or wherever it was he played. I refute that, and I bring picspam to prove it. Most pictures are by [livejournal.com profile] jades_shadow and nicked from [livejournal.com profile] ianto_daily, and one or two are by Spaceygal (I don't know if she has a Livejournal) from doctorwhoforum.

WHEREIN I DISCUSS PIE )

Perusing [livejournal.com profile] ianto_daily, I came across a comment by one of its users that said "The dopey hat is growing on me". This made me lol a bit, but there's a serious point to be made there, just in general, which is that should you decide to go with a "look", you should just persevere with it like Gareth has. Fuck what other people say, stick with it and eventually your dopey hat will grow on people. It's an important life lesson, I feel.

I'd like to direct anyone who thinks Torchwood has an actual budget towards exhibit A:

Bless Gareth, and Gareth's famous jacket. The question remains, of course, why Gareth wore actual clothes underneath said jacket in Countrycide. Surely this was unnecessary?

Also, Gareth made After Elton's hot 100 (linky), just above David Beckham (thank fuck for that) and just below small-faced actor Ryan Reynolds. I don't post about small-faced actor Ryan Reynolds a lot, though in fact, I have a bit of a pet theory that just about every film made in the past five years would have been vastly improved by having small-faced actor Ryan Reynolds play the lead. It's not a popular opinion, I realise, but it's mine so there you go.

People are still reading and commenting on my Ianto cockspam. Where are these people coming from? Explain yourselves, people, I hate being out of the loop.

Oh, man, that was bad. I'm glad, actually, that this series has finally thrown up an episode I thought was awful, because I was starting to worry I'd entered into some weirdy parallel universe where I liked Who and didn't bitch about it. That was bad. The charades made me laugh, and if the whole episode had kept up that level of absolute cracky nonsense, I'd have been happy, but it somehow kept trying to take itself marginally seriously every ten minutes or so and ruin the mood.


So... onwards. You know how much I abhor RPF, right? I HATE RPF, I think it's offensive and really has no place in fandom, it grosses me out. There. So now you know. Having said that, TUatW reminded me that I should repeat this:

I wouldn't say no to a quick little little Gareth David-Lloyd/Felicity Kendall vignette.
But only if it was wayyy beyond NC-17. I've mentioned this little guilty pleasure pairing before, but perhaps not to the widest of audiences, but yeah, if you ever wanted to write me a present, that would be the one. And the pic to get you started:


Guh. Yeah. And then they done sex.



Sorry, that was a bit random.
And I'm joking about the RPF. Please don't. But if you do, make it GDL/Felicity, yeah? But just don't do it. It's yucky.

  • Yeah. So... Almost Perfect. The Torchwood novel. Seriously. Gender swap. I can't make longer sentences than this. Gender swap, seriously. Dudes. Honestly, gender swap? NO. I cannot even begin to explain on how many levels that's just a really, really bad idea. Why don't we just give the big gay show over ENTIRELY to 16-year-old fanfic writers, yeah? Because I'd be willing to bet that despite the hilarious premise, nobody gets FUCKED IN THE ASS in this book, and at least if we handed over to the ficcers, we'd have a guarantee that the novels would be full of FUCKING FILTH. Maybe not always filth of the highest calibre or believability, but pornography nonetheless. All the books would be about Jack and Ianto (the Time Lord) and would contain gratuitous rimming and hilariously bad things happening to Gwen. Actually, now that I start to think about it, all of that might not actually be that bad an idea. Forget I spoke. Fucking gender swap. Honestly, man. Kill me now.


  • Beckett LOVES The Doctor's Daughter and I think he fancies Jenny a bit. But then he asks me yesterday "Why did the guy from THE BOX SHOW shooted the daughter?" and it took me ages to work out what he was talking about. The box show is, of course, Deal or No Deal, and Beckett thinks Jenny was shot by Noel Edmonds.


  • And while I'm on The Doctor's Daughter, between Owen's 27-ness, the Doctor's refusal to take Mr. Copper along in VotD, 5 BILLION OTHER THINGS, and now the Doctor's DOWNRIGHT MOCKING of Donna's feminine wiles, Rusty's BLATANT AGEISM is starting to get RIGHT ON MY TITS. My thirtysomething, slightly deflated tits.

  • Oh yeah, and Gareth? DON'T say in interviews that you can't afford a PA unless you want EVEN MORE letters than you're already getting from lots of lovely ladies offering you their services for free. With a blowjob thrown in. Honestly. Silly boy.


I use the icon because I haven't mentioned Gareth's COCK in at least a week. I'm going into withdrawal.

That is all.

Okay, this will all seem a bit random and there are spoilers and stuff, so don't read it if you don't like that sort of thing, srsly, JUST MOVE ALONG, it's not that hard.

I've been doing a bit of thinking and discussing and such about these Who finale spoilers, the talk about Rusty leaving, Torchwood being rejigged AGAIN (WHY?? Don't fix it, asshats, it ain't broke right now!!) and the possible 5/6 episode Torchwood stint, so I'm going to put some rambling thoughts down about what's going on and hope they make sense.

  • First of all the 5/6 episode TW run wouldn't hugely surprise me, just because logistically, doing 6 TW eps plus 3 full length Who specials just about adds up to the same amount of work as ONE CREW would put in for a WHOLE NORMAL SEASON of either of those two things. I wouldn't read too much into it, I don't think there's an implication there that either show is scaling down for good, I think they're just attempting to keep one crew employed for the upcoming year, as opposed to offering a few months here and there, which is never a popular move.


  • Money stuff. WHAT HAPPENED TO CBC?? They dropped Who after S3 and TW after S1, is that just lack of funds or what? I never actually read any reports on why the collaboration ended. Is the franchise costing BBC Wales slightly more money than we perhaps realise now that it's a solo production? Are they possibly looking for a new co-production partner? (Like I've said before, it wouldn't surprise me if BBCA were willing to pump some money into TW with a few strings attached, including upping the number of episodes, which would require better writing for en ensemble cast, which would require a slightly different production method, which... etc etc.) Plus, SciFi's first broadcast rights on Who are up soon (after the specials, I assume?) In short, I think there's A LOT going on behind the scenes right now, Russell's leaving is probably even tied into all that somewhere along the line.


  • Speculation tiem: The stuff I've heard is this when it comes to the Who finale: There's a reset button, there's at least ten people IN the TARDIS (Donna, Martha, Rose, Sarah Jane, Jack, Gwen, Ianto, Mickey, Jackie, Pete). When it comes to the new series of TW, I've heard Mickey and Martha are joining, but I've also heard talk that there's been casting (for an uncommissioned series, cool) for Owen and Tosh's replacements, and, obviously, Marsters is on board for a number of episodes (in fact, he has seemed to be the MOST FIRM in seeing TW as an actual DIARY commitment already, and I figure with the commitments he has elsewhere, he is actually likely to receive more solid information than anyone else if they want him to return.)


  • SO, BEARING ALL THAT IN MIND, this is my theory: It's not a popular choice, but I DO think there's a reset button involved somehow and we may well lose a few months, if not years of canon. The reason I think this, is because doing so (there was talk of Nine never having regenerated into Ten, now there's talk of Eight never having regenerated into Nine and something to do with changing the outcome of the Time War.) DOESN'T ACTUALLY AFFECT ANYTHING, IF all the major players involved in the franchise are at the eye of the storm and therefore unaffected. The Torchwood organisation could conceivably not exist or have ever existed without that proving too much of a problem for the Torchwood TV show, IF Jack, Gwen and Ianto have still been through everything they've been through in S1 and 2 by virtue of them missing out on the reset. They could easily start up TW mark 2 with no real problem, because the end is where they start from, after all. And there has been talk of a MAJOR CHANGE at TW.


  • In fact, you see, the thing is, the more I think about EVERY MAJOR CHARACTER FROM THE ZOOWHONIVERSE BEING IN THE TARDIS AT THE SAME TIME, the more I can't really think of any other valid reason for that to happen OTHER THAN circumstances outside the TARDIS changing to such an extent that every player in the franchise will need protecting from those changes.


  • And the reason I'm starting to buy into that idea now is PRECISELY BECAUSE I now KNOW Russell is leaving and LOOK WHAT CHIBNALL DID TO TW ON HIS WAY OUT. Russell obviously likes those big gay dramatic gestures, or you'd think he'd have vetoed major character death on Torchwood. I think Russell's going to do something MASSIVE. Not CGI massive, just massive. Canon massive.


  • Having said that, it's probably jusy some big gay cgi monster.


In Gareth news: ACTUAL FIRST HAND ORGEE ACCOUNTS are more than welcome IF they are cock-related and, obviously, actual pictorial evidences of alleged cock incidents would be rewarded with some sort of fangirlish bounty.

tencrush: (thud)
Ah-ha! Gareth says Jack and Ianto have probably been fucking all along.
*points told-you-so-finger at the world and his wife*
I KNEW IT! Don't even TRY and contradict me on that one anymore, srsly.




Also: New infos re. cock, Marsters compares GDLcock favourably to his own. Cock estimation amended by one half inch until further info on the Marsterscock is obtained.

tencrush: (thud)
1) Gareth David-Lloyd's cock: I'm saying 6.5" 7" and a girth of 5.2" 5.4". Yes, I'm talking about his penis.

2) John Barrowman wears A WIG. Hairpiece, rug, toupet, whatever. IT'S NOT HIS REAL HAIR.



This week's pre-weekend post is brought to you by the theory that clever use of googleable keywords, combined with the reasonably large readership of this journal and the fact that people are just generally a bit bored at the weekend SHOULD, IN THEORY mean that if I just, as above, state what it is I want to know or prove and wait long enough, through the magic of the internets the information and proof will eventually just sort of gravitate my way like fannish osmosis.

*waits*

EDITED 27/04/2008 following The Rift: owing to favourable reviews by James Marsters, cock estimation has been amended upwards.

tencrush: (iantobutton)
It's finally time for me to illustrate some of my views on Ianto and his dominant/alpha traits, whatever you wish to call them. Or at least to prove, once and for all, that Ianto is FAR FROM the wussy, servile wimp that parts of Torchwood fandom still seem to love to label him as.

It's just an excuse for pictures of Ianto, let's be honest here... )
So there you have it. My what a big penis he has. Who would have thought it, eh? There was a point to all this, but it has, as always, temporarily escaped me due to pretty. I'm sure someone will remember what it was eventually.



EDITED TO ADD: That cap from Captain Jack Harkness? God, I miss those earpieces. I think the costume department forgot about the great impact made by things that draw one's eye to bits of the human anatomy interested parties may well want to nibble. Bastards.

EDITED AGAIN TO ADD MINI PICSPAM BONUS:











I add/repeat these because they show Ianto at his most threatening. It's weird, because Ianto at his most threatening seems to always involve that face, and it's a face that can't quite make its mind up as to whether it's menacing or flirtatious. In fact, Ianto behaving as a kickass hard man always AT THE SAME TIME seems to involve Ianto being more... sexy than he normally is. The taser as penis substitute in Meat, this thing...



... with the grape in Combat. As soon as Ianto starts exhibiting aggressive behaviour, his actions also become rather more overtly sexual, which is why he strikes me as having, sexually, quite an aggressive and dominating personality.

Which, obviously, is nothing to do with why I love Ianto so much. Nope.

ETA AGAIN (June 2008): If you're only just reading this, could you tell me where you came from? I'm being linked to from all over the place and I'm interested.
