Why have I given up?
Someone kindly asked me the question as to why I have chosen not to do any more fanvids... and I thought I would post my reply here too!
...
Because I have made 152 fanvids of Jack and Ianto out of which I managed to get 140 uploaded and as it draws nearer and nearer to S4 BBC Worldwide seem to have singled me out and keep banning my vids saying I ( Read more... )
Like you I was actually willing to give S4 a try - but to glorify paedophiles and child killers and allow them to live goes beyond any boundary of decency.
I am always being told how sensitive I am about things - well in this case, sensitive or not, any name you like to call me... I will never approve of this storyline.
Perhaps the whole cast and writers should go into those homes where young children have been abused and see it from their point of view. Then they can sit and tell those children "to get a life" [or as JB said "Get over it!"] ... the same way RTD told those staunch Ianto fans who 'made a fuss' over his death!
Every single one of them has gone down in my estimation because if they are willing to accept huge sums of money just to appear on the box, then they are not the people they purport to be! They is no way to make this storyline acceptable once they have let the killer go free; particularly if he is supposedly helping the world. That is total garbage.
Even if they kill off the guy in the end... it doesn't matter because the damage will have been done - the message they are sending to those abused children... and even to those adults watching who have gone through it... is that you don't matter... what you went through is just a good storyline! I started working with abused children as a volunteer when I was 13 and the faces of some of them will always haunt me and nothing will convince me that the subject matter makes good TV for thrills!
Like you I have fanfiction and good fanvids and that is all I need because RTD hasn't tainted it!!!

When I was 13 one of the first set of children I looked after on the weekend was a pair of unidentical twin girls - one blonde and one black-haired. The father used to make the one who looked like him watch as he abused the other one in the most horrific way. Shame the death penalty didn't stretch for him! I always think that the stress of seeing such things at such young age set off enormous stress problems exacerbated the Fibro/CFS I already had but remained undiagnosed for so many years!
Reading interviews with RTD does nothing to help my stress levels either ... so have given up that little... luxury!
