We've just finished watching Queen's Gambit, the show about Elizabeth Harmon (of whom I know nothing). It was remarkable how exciting the show managed to make chess. Chess! I mean, I kept hoping desperately that someone would help her get out of the trough she was in (Jolene!), but the chess tournaments were amazingly gripping, considering I barely know how to play.

Also, it had Thomas Brodie-Sangster in it, and I love watching him. It was a surprise when he cropped up—we'd watched season two of Dodger just beforehand, in which he has the leading role. I like him so much as an actor, but am bewildered that he continues to look about seventeen. I know he was in a Doctor Who double episode, but I feel sure I saw him as a heroic and capable RN midshipman in something... I cannot find it. Anyone? Am I thinking of a completely different actor?

Anyway. I now wish for somebody to make Twelfth Night with Thomas Brodie Sangster and Anya Taylor Joy as Sebastian and Viola. A little matching of the complexions, a suitably paired set of wigs, and voila!
