Oh God. Proof that you've fallen into the shipper abyss; when you're watching The Thick of It Christmas special, you notice that Malcolm and Jamie arrive together in the morning, and you have to pause so you can have a little flail. Despite the fact that you've seen it before and it means absolutely nothing.

Not sure why I wrote all that in the second person, but there you go.

This is not the kind of show which is designed for these sorts of habits. It's not Torchwood, despite sharing Peter Capaldi. Politician Peter Capaldi, at that. I can't help but feel that I'll become a classic case of missing the point when I watch the programme; concentrating on stupid, superficial matters rather than paying attention to what it's about. Not good, not good.

At least I'm not treating either character as if they're in any way desirable. Both characters are highly unsympathetic.

Yet, I keep coming up with tiny, insignificant little details by watching both Malcolm and Jamie together. I'll make some kind of analysis post one day, if I can work out how to take screencaps.

Argh. Help. Reassure me of my shipper guilt!

the thick of it, torchwood
