Heartstopper Forever review – sanitized sex scenes won’t let the Netflix lovebirds grow up
By Owen Myers

The film-length finale to the teen LGBTQ+ show has poignant moments but feels like fan service by numbers

#BreakingTheCode at #HOMEMcr was a good production. It's a poignant biography of #AlanTuring, from his childhood years with his schoolboy crush through to his death. It jumps around chronologically, mostly framed by the story of his arrest for "gross indecency" after he admitted to having a male lover while reporting a burglary. But it's pretty easy to follow the through-line.

As a #BletchleyPark nerd, I'm a little peeved that they didn't give Dilly Knox a line about how the Poles broke the Enigma before the war, and Turing's work was mostly about tackling variants, and speeding up the process to make Ultra intelligence useful to the military. But at least the play doesn't quite state that Turing invented the computer, another common misconception.

I don't think it can live up to the 1996 TV movie with #DerekJacobi, but it's far better than the Cumberbatch abombination.

Stratton aims for Bond but lands short of Spooks.

Stratton. Not a callsign, not a codename. Just Stratton....

"The film will also explore how Polidori is confronted with his own inner demons and forbidden desires by telling the story of how he becomes obsessed with his real-life contemporary, Lord George Byron, who becomes an allegory for the character he has created--Lord Ruthven."

#Allelujah: It's been a while since I've seen a plot twist so efficiently derail an entire film like this. One of the most confounding misfires in recent memory.

Nice #SouthBankShow offering a deep historical perspective on the great #Hamlet productions.

I would love to see #DoctorWho do "The Five Masters"

We currently have:

#EricRoberts
#DerekJacobi
#JohnSimm
#MichelleGomez
#SachaDhawan

And if you really want we could have current actors play #RogerDelgado and #AnthonyAinley

THAT is a special I wanna see!

@shakespearenut

Link below= radio adaptation of #Hamlet, starring #KennethBranagh , #JudiDench, and #DerekJacobi

One of my recurring rants about #shakespeare is: he was basically writing for #radio about 400 years before it was fashionable.

The most important scenery, almost all the physical action, and certainly all the conflict and imagery, is VERBALIZED.

Play works superbly in audio. Cast list is in image description.
