Can you tell I love the name Percy? I think it belongs to a shy chap that could never pull off the rotter part of RA’s Percy. The name makes me 😊. Trying to cut down on the baking since I am expanding by the day . So silly odes are another creative outlet, no calories.
I have to agree – I never thought that a Percy is a rotten scoundrel. (Need some fan fiction that completely redeems Percy. Although I fear that wife-beating is not really redeemable. Meh.)
My scales told me this morning that I have expanded by 800g. Hm. I baked another cake in response.
He is exchanging a coin with the girl – this scene takes place in a brothel, I think, and he is basically giving her money that way. Yep, does not exactly show him at his best. Although, in other respects, this gif does…
Wonderful ode Kathy! And I didn’t avert my eyes either! Half dressed Percy was the only thing worth watching in the whole mini-series.
I was diverted for a moment by a tweet of yours in the side column about Richard E Grant and it reminded me that he played a Percy – Sir Percy Blakeney in The Scarlet Pimpernel on TV about 20 years ago. It only ran for two series of three episodes each)
LOL – watching for the plot, big time!
And Richard E. Grant is just wonderful. You’ve got to follow him on Twitter. His daily W&I quotes are hilarious. They are just 20 seconds long, but boy does he cheer me up…

Funnily enough, that scene was left out of the fan cut of ‘Marie Lloyd’ which I saw first… Only discovered it years later…
