Just Spotted That We've Got An Airdate For Reece's Episode Of The Read On BBC 4 - 2nd Feb 2025.

Award-winning actor Reece Shearsmith (Inside No.9, The League of Gentlemen, Psychoville) draws us into the strange and eerie world of Dr Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, in Robert Louis Stevenson's classic gothic novella exploring the duality of human nature. Gabriel John Utterson, a London lawyer, is alerted to a series of strange occurrences involving his friend, Dr. Henry Jekyll, and a sinister figure named Mr. Edward Hyde. Dr. Jekyll has been experimenting with a potion that transforms him into Mr. Hyde, allowing him to indulge in immoral acts without guilt. But as Hyde's actions become increasingly violent, Jekyll struggles to control his transformations, and Hyde's personality begins to dominate... The Read is a series of outstanding performance readings of iconic British novels.  Reese Shearsmith was filmed on location in Bradford, 2025's UK City of Culture. A Rural Studios production for BBC Four and BBC iPlayer. Filmed on location in Bradford it is directed by Kieran Stringfellow. The Series Producer is Julie Colman, the Executive Producer is Grant Black and the commissioner for BBC Arts is Stephen James- Yeoman.

Varney starts the episode with pale skin, and his complexion gets lighter and lighter as the nights go by, until he's ready to feed on Thompson. The effect needed to be subtle, so as not to be obvious, and was achieved by a combination of make-up and tweaking the grade in post-production. When Varney was ready to finally feed, Morales was determined it be memorable, with the camera lingering on the bloodsucking which we see both directly and via the rearview mirror (with Shearsmith absent, as vampires don't cast relections). 'Guillem said, "We'll go, via the mirror, to him feeding and he's not there, but we see the pulsing chewing of the neck happening."' I thought, brilliant. I've never seen that before. And he wanted that shot of me feeding on his neck to last longer than you would normally expect. lt seemed to go on and on,' recalls Reece, who had blood in his mouth which he spewed on cue. 'And I was like, "Can we cut?"" Come the editing, Shearsmith was still unsure how long the shot should last. 'He Was like, "Is this too long or is it just me?"" laughs Morales 'That was quite an achievement, to make Reece uncomfortable.' Pemberton was less concerned. 'Because you withheld all your vampirism, you want to make the most of it when it comes in,' says Steve.

hello~ could anyone point me to the post where it's like a page from Insider's Guide to Inside No. 9, about the drawn out ~bloodsucking scene in The Stakeout & Guillem (and Steve?) being delighted at making Reece uncomfortable about that?? i'd love to rb it

On the subject of historical fan sites, I was digging through LiveJournal and found a link.

After inputting into the Wayback Machine and preparing myself for disappointment, it stated the site was Still Active...

Here it is. A perfectly preserved cobweb from 19 years ago.

And another, more comprehensive site: (warning - a perfect stylistic example of a 2000s website... you may need aspirin.)

Jeremy's actions were proportionate and understandable given the patron's lack of due respect for library property.

This man is a hero. And he's beautiful.

a single white feather from Anna Francolini's fan,  displayed on the Stage/fright brochure.

A rather delightful little souvenir.

I was sitting in the front row at the matinee and, during Tears of Laughter, this fluttered off Anna Francolini's fan and landed in my lap.

I shall treasure it always.

How fitting that the next poll is on closing night of the Wyndham's run of Stage/Fright, it's almost as if I predicted it! (I didn't, but pretend I did so I seem really smart.)

This was such a close call the whole time, I can't believe it. In Poll 4 for the Reece characters, we are saying ta-ta to Jim, Maureen Sowerbutts, Gareth, and Damon. The (very late) winner is Brian! With Drew coming a close second! Both of which move onto the next heat of polls.

The next poll has another few very strong contenders, with Greg, Clive, Reece (from Dead Line), Neville Griffin, DI Barnabus Bull, and Gerry all fighting to come first and second.
