- Bought online this morning Russell's book, writer's tale at the shiny price of 25 euros (which is like 11 euros cheaper than the french amazon price where it's out of stock anyway) and can't wait to read it. Trivia and anecdotal evidences are my weakness, I love to pile them up.
The book was out yesterday but the quotes are travelling on the tubes since at least a week."Still, [making Owen die in S2 rather than Ianto] meant I had a meeting with Gareth David-Lloyd to explain it all. Christ, he's hot. I'm talking about sex a lot. That means I'll start writing soon."
At first reading that quote gave me the Hitchcock vs his actress creepy vibs but then that just a funny one-liner isn't it ?
It reminds me of House employing Cameron because she's a nice green plant in the office. She's not the prettiest or the smartest girl but her face and body is enjoyable enough and she isn't dumb just naive enough for House to be the one in control.
Being Cameron you can only feel insulted, but how glad you are that you're working with the best MD of the state if not of the country ? What is the price of your job ?
How thankful, GDL can be that he's being genetically gifted ?
I believe him good actor, maybe the best of the Torchwood cast now (The Meat outtake makes me cringe to see how John Barrowman sounds so wooden while GDL is natural) so I hope being fancied by the producers will serve him right.
It's funny how GDL's life as an actor is parallel to Ianto's life in Torchwood. Both of them are extremely good in their job, they are both very young so in the difficult position of having to prove themselves over and over again. And both of them took the shortcut (and not necessarily by choice, it just happened) of being sexually objectified by their boss, which save their young ass of being "killed". Ianto was to be killed so many times and yet GDL's still there while GDL said in a convention that sleeping with Jack was probably what stopped Jack of killing Ianto or retconning him.

I never realized how Jack's room IS NOT a room. Did you see how small and dirty is his room ? There's no way Ianto is living there with Jack. You can fuck like bunnies on that bed camp but under no condition you can call that panic room a home. If he doesn't have a apartement, Ianto probably owns a room somewhere in the Hub.

Doctor Who BoardWords on the street (and by which I mean fans' wish) are on Ianto owning the car <3
Reminds me of a John Barrowman's interview when he was on "Central Park West". I don't remember the question but the answer was that he did have sex on his new car hood which resulted in a nice ass print on it and a bit later having to pay for a new car coating while the car mechanical shop guy raised his eyebrows while smirking.
