Thread to talk about the actor Tom Hiddleston
Also a thread to talk about your isolation hellscape.
In order to stop any possible infection, my MD husband is living at my in-law's house...and the in-laws have moved in with me.
Go on, beat it.
>>3 Can’t beat that! Though my boss complained today that she couldn’t reach me through a remote working app she told me she would not be using....
Are you THE Anon.?
I am. I think.
We're starting to go a little stir crazy. My inlaws are doing jigsaw puzzles non-stop. They are averaging about two a day. But we only have five of them so they are on a very short rotation! Hubs Facetimes us. We haven't actually seen each other in two weeks.
Luckily no one we know has it. Hope everyone is well. Stay safe Karehaers!!
>>5 I'm glad you're back! What led you to return?
Good that you've got the puzzles. If they get stale in rotation, you could challenge the I-Ls by turning all the pieces upside down so they can only match them by shape.... (chuckles fiendishly)
I hope your husband continues to do well! Stay safe yourself.
I randomly thought just now about starting a new board to see if everyone was ok. Also, what would this place be without a TH board?
But I see that Anon With Dot has already got there. Hello. You win the internet.
Heynon has kept the board going with Herculanean efforts when everyone else departed. Waves.
Glad you are both well.
Waves to everyone
>>7 Thanks (waves back)! SoSorry also contributed a lot in the Dark Time. Then Betrayal closed its run in NYC and there was very little new content not covered elsewhere. But I'd be sorry to see this board die out.
Hope everyone continues to hang in there, both on the board and IRL. We can use some light distraction about now.
Heynon, did you ever write your review of Betrayal?
>>11 I did not - my apologies! I am planning to do so at some point, but life keep getting in the way.
Hope everyone is staying safe. Coriolanus is to be streamed next month on the NT’s YouTube channel.
>>14 Thanks! There’s a pirate copy floating around in Google Docs, but it will be nice to watch it legitimately. Now if someone would also release a tape of Cymbaline....
Deadpoets_live on Twitter has a five-second clip of TH and a hint that something is coming this Friday (May 15).
Board viewing party!
>>16 Tom and Josie Rourke will be doing live commentary on IG on June 4: https://www.whatsonstage.com/london-theatre/news/tom-hiddleston-and-josie-rourke-to-stream-coriolan_51708.html

Hi everyone!
I’m so happy that I could finally find this thread again. I’m hoping that everyone is wearing masks, socially distancing and keeping safe. I’ve missed chatting w you all, so much. Btw, Tom was seen at the veterinarian’s office the other day w his puppy Bobby, who accidentally swallowed a raisin and had to have his stomach pumped. He took a pic at the office. And of course everyone is swearing that Zawe Ashton was with him outside the office, b/c you could see a black slide shoe that she wears in the photo. That pic was harder to find though. I also saw a link promoting The Night Manager 2. I hope that series finds a way to come together.

Here is The Night Manger 2, PR.
And Tom just did a new UNICEF Ambassador Covid update, video.

>>19 Welcome back! And thanks for the tidbits - I haven't been looking around much during the lockdown.
I looked at the Facebook page of the veterinary tech who originally posted about Bobby, and she's in or near Atlanta. So the theory that he stayed there after Loki had to stop filming seems to be correct.
>>20 Not placing much faith in that Night Mgr 2 news - it looks rehashed. OTOH, the shutdown will give the writers more time to work on it, since productions may be backed up for quite some time.
>>21 It's nice to see him working with UNICEF again, after he stopped doing so after the GG speech.
Did anyone watch the Coriolanus broadcast? If so, what did you think?
Has this been posted? I've been off the TH wagon for so long that I don't know.
Odd what you find when looking for illegal videos of UK tv shows online!
Honestly I'll just give myself a light pat down. HONESTLY.
>>19 You misspelled her name. It's spelled JArthy. I'll accept no other.
>>23 I didn't. Any good tidbits?
I hope everyone is doing well. We're back to normality: MIL and FIL have left and hubs has returned. I was nearing my breaking point with that situation!
>>26 "Flossing"!
JArthy - sure you didn't mean EO?
Coriolanus broadcast was good, but I think I'd get more out of it after a second viewing. TH spoke very rapidly and was sometimes hard to understand (in fairness, this was the first time I'd seen this play). The role made great use of his physicality and his ability to play unpleasant characters. (I kept feeling bits of Loki, but that also shows how much TH and Branagh pulled from Shakespeare for the first Thor film.)
I only caught bits of the live commentary with Josie Rourke and various cast members (including TH). Some of it is shown in one of Marvel's "Cast During Quarantine" vids: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aFui9ndq6l0&t=226s (TH's part is at the beginning).
Glad you are finally free of the ILs and that the hubster is back! I can only imagine what your life has been like....
i am a heron. i ahev a long neck and i pick fish out of the water w/ my beak. if you dont repost this comment on 10 other pages i will fly into your kitchen tonight and make a mess of your pots and pans
Surely you guys can't be dead when there's new Loki... surely
Wow, almost a year since the last sighting... Godspeed wherever you are, you beautiful souls.
Checking in here in the first time since forever. Unsurprised to find crickets! Maybe we can regroup once Essex Serpent comes out. I haven't rushed to watch Loki, but will get to it when I do the periodic change-out of streaming channels. Hope all is well with whoever sees this
who?
Well will you look who got engaged. It's about time. Congrats.
