Just to confirm here at the start: This post will contain no spoilers beyond what is already known from the TS trailer; I am only describing my reactions to the show, including my rating. There will be no plot twists or conclusions revealed! When Netflix released The Stranger yesterday morning – after a slight panic because at…
Whiling away the evening before The Stranger drops? In that case I can help you. Following on from my “Joy to the Ears” post, here is another clip with Richard. This is only really short, and it appears to be *not* about promo for TS or UV, but in context of the theme “risks”. Richard talks about being…
Beard? What beard? Seriously, I had to comment BTS that Richard looked absolutely gorgeous in his appearance on Lorraine. No, unfortunately I could not tune into it. ITV doesn’t like Irish users (and I haven’t got a tunnel to get me a UK IP). But I have seen the official pictures via Shutterstock. For a quick…
Nothing of consequence to say here, except I can’t resist posting links to the radio interviews that Richard has been on the last couple of days. It’s not necessarily the actual contents of the interviews. With TS such a thriller, he seems to be under strictest orders not to reveal anything. And yet, when you listen…
The incoming reviews of UV had me so distracted yesterday, I forgot all about the impending round-up. The reviews have been good, on the whole. I decided to figure out the average star score, and all added up we come to 4.41 stars. I think we can safely make it ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💫… Congratulations to all involved! So,…
Before Uncle Vanya gets its press write-ups following tonight’s press night, it’s time to get my own impressions of the play down. I watched UV on the 14th of January, at its first preview. A glorified dress rehearsal, more or less, playing the play for the first time in front of a paying audience. That does not…

A post shared by Richard Armitage (@richardcarmitage) on Jan 23, 2020 at 1:30am PST Picture by An Le Studios – who also took the picture for the recent Sunday Times article. (see…
The news are coming thick and fast. This piece in Digital Spy is really interesting. Apparently Richard did more for this show than “just” act. His customary character bio was so cohesive, the writers included bits in the final script. BTW, the beginning of the text up there (“Speaking to DS and other press“) –…
Just quickly because I am up to my teeth in my craftroom re-do. Have just been out to buy up all available copies of the Sunday Express. The headline is already spot-on – “perfect” indeed, but I liked the subheading even better. For your perusal, here is a quick pic of the article. I have…
Today I am really torn about what to post. There is so much to say – the UV photos that dropped yesterday for one. Isn’t it all gorgeous? The stage setting. The man??? *deaded* And something else exciting that I *really* need to write a proper post about. Excuse me while I have to embed the most…
