Shakespeare sonnet thing
1. Is Rupert Graves in everything ever?
2. If so, how does he have time to film all of this stuff?
3. Does this mean he's a Time Lord?
I just grabbed a docu-drama thingit about Shakespeare's sonnets (in the hopes of some man-on-man action, of course) on a recommendation and it seems a bit wobbly so far. He keeps panting (sounding like he's wanking, actually) and looking at the camera and the docu-drama seems a bit cheesy at the start. Complete with Pythonesque Dung Ages! There's filth and plague and bodies and I believe someone just shouted "bring out yer dead!" I didn't know about the cast list (and don't think I can even find it anywhere) but from the credits at the start, the cast seems impressive o_O I guess you can get certain types of British actors to do anything if you mention Shakespeare.
Yes, that's Rupert Graves. Clearly just before he fathered Edward Sexby.
ETA: IS THE APOTHECARY WHO I THINK IT IS
Jesus. It is. HORSEFUCKER! I AM FUCKING CURSED D: D: D: D: D:
Doubly so because this is so bad. Oh god. And Anna Chancellor plays a bitch, *again*. Poor woman can never ever play sympathetic characters. And the dialogue is so awful. Was this written by Chinballs under a pen name? What... what am I watching?
ETA2: Jesus, the fair youth of his sonnets is a) dark-haired and b) looks like some teen prettyboy in the Rhys-Meyers vein. What the fuck. Also, Indira Varma has just shown up as the Dark Lady, who is apparently a drunken, French-Indian prozzie. What the fuck. Also, there's lots of shagging and lots of Rupertarse. gritsinmisery would be pleased.
ETA3: OMG. THIS WAS SO BAD. So, so bad. But at least there was more of this:
So I'm not sure if I'm allowed to complain, technically. But why didn't they cast *him* as the fair youth and have some epic gay sexings? That would've fit.
