Fashion, Across the Pond
We have had the first new meme of 2020 courtesy of Dolly Parton's social media manager (because I know Dolly and those long nails are not really on Twitter).
Quick to join was Billy Ray Cyrus (obviously, as Dolly is Miley Cyrus' godmother).

I hope Meredith was joking about getting husband, Patton Oswald's permission. That's not very Natty Gan of her
”Jojo Rabbit” star/writer/director Taika Waiti can do it all
All of Ruffalo's pics could be a Tinder pick. I'd swipe right for sure.
Lance Reddick
Be careful, world. Natalie Portman has admitted to being a catfisher using pics of Millie Bobby Brown, Gia DeLaurtis, Kiera Knightley and Emily Ratakowski to get men!
Other than the Oscars and the Met Gala, and the Elysium Ball, and maybe the Golden Globes, I have no interest in fashion, but Louis Vuitton's look book has me intrigued.

Léa Seydoux
Léa returns to the James Bond'verse in Daniel Craig's final outing - “No Time to Die”.
With Craig out the minders of Bond - Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson are on the lookout for his successor. Ever since Craig announced he was stepping down years ago, many names have been bandied about from Idris Elba, Tom Hardy, and Richard Madden (Rocketman, Bodyguard).
Most recently, due to his work in BBC's “The Trial of Christine Keeler” (which details the real life circus of the Profumo Affair), people are mention former “Grantchester” star James Norton.
I love Norton, especially since he's no longer on “Grantchester”, but nah
I'm happier with my new Vicar, former slut Will Davenport
“Grantchester” Season 5 has been pretty good. Since, apparently, the writers don't want to just make Geordie's relationship as buddy-buddy as it was with Sidney, the writers needed to build out their world so there has been a focus on their relationships with other characters such as Will's newly widowed mother, a boxing coach who is his confidante, an ambitious reporter, Geordie's partner, his mother-in-law, and Leonard's photographer boyfriend Daniel.
Besides "Grantchester", I am watching BBC's limited series "White House Farm" based on the real life White House Farms murders with Freddie Fox (Cucumber, Year of the Rabbit) playing Jeremy Bamber, who is suspected of killing of his parents, sister, and nephews.
It also stars Gemma Whelan (Game of Thrones) as his doubting cousin, Mark Addy (Game of Thrones) as the dubious detective on the case, and the sublime Stephen Graham as the furious captain who just wants to close the case.
Freddie's sister Emilia was in "The Trial of Christine Keeler" playing the wife of John Profumo (played by Ben Miles). "The Trial of Christine Keeler" is the spiritual cousin of "A Very English Scandal" as after its success the producers decided to do an anthology of political scandals. "The Trial of Christine Keeler" had more episodes (to its detriment) and was done in a more straight forward way and not as snappy as AVES but it was a good production.
Just wrapped up "Deadwater Fell" starring David Tennant, Cush Jumbo, Matthew McNulty (who I haven't seen since MISFITS) and Anna Madely in a story about the deaths of a woman and her two children. Did she snap? Or is her husband (Tennant) behind their deaths. Primo TV.
- Dracula was a swing and a miss.
Brought to the telly by "Doctor Who" and "Sherlock" creative Mark Gatiss and Steven Gatiss it was the epitome of a mixed bag with episode one picking up steam in the last half, the second episode was gold and the third was a mess! A whole. MESS. With some grace notes, but overall bewildering.
Leads Claes Bang and Dolly Wells were gems, though.
Then there's "The Capture" starring Halliday Grainger, Callum Turner and Laura Haddock.
The series centered on disgraced lance corporal Shaun Emery who is cleared of murder overseas but is now on the run as a suspect in the murder of his attorney Hannah Roberts (Haddock)
Pure
Channel 4 series based on the biography of author Rose Cartwright who suffers from a rare form of OCD - one where she is barraged by sexual thoughts. The series stars Charly Clive as Marnie who leaves her small Scottish town for London over fear that her sexual thoughts would lead her to a situation that will cause her to be exposed. Once in London she find a therapists and is diagnosed with Pure O - compulsive sexual thoughts. Relieved that she isn't a deviant, she still keeps her diagnoses from her newfound friends,
with the exception of fellow support group participant Charlie (Joe Cole), himself a recovering sex addict.
