The Changing Bentley
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Noticed something when reading through this article again.
Finney took advantage of virtual production (VP) technology for the driving scenes in Crowley’s classic Bentley. The volume was built on their Scottish set: a 4x7m cube with a roof that could go up and down on motorised winches as needed. “We pulled the cars in and out on skates – they went up on little jacks, which you could then rotate and move the car around within the volume,” he explains.
Multiple cars? Maybe he's just referring to the Full!Bentley and the Shell!Bentley? Not sure, but it did prompt me to loop around and take another look at the Bentley throughout season 2...
Tumblr media
I know there has been A LOT of debate about the bentley in season two, and Neil has answered quite a few asks on the topic, I feel bad for the poor man we should leave him out of these debates lol. However, his answer here is weirdly worded.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Look at these two photos. I think it's clearest to see the color differences if you just look at the door panels.
SO, let's pick apart Neils answer then yes?
The Shell!Bentley had different color seat covers (brown).
The car Aziraphale drives to Edinburgh was not the Shell!Bentley, there were many photos taken from people around this shoot, so the Full!Bentley must have the black/blue interior yes?
The Shell!Bentley must have the brown interior, and must've been what they used to shoot Crowley's London alleyway scenes?
So the Shell!Bentley has the "correct Bentley exterior" and "correct seats"? Are the blue/black seats "incorrect"?
Tumblr media Tumblr media
But we know they did film with the Full!Bentley on Circus Lane for at least some of Crowley's London alley scenes as well as the Shell!Bentley. Or at least there are photos of both on location there.
Tumblr media
I then did the normal thing and went back and looked at each scene where Crowley is in the alleyway, and looked for two distinct things.
Presence of the rear door handle. The Shell!Bentley does not have one, the Season 1 Bentley did not have one as it was a 2-door and the Full!Bentley in season two doesn't have one until AFTER Aziraphale returns from Edinburgh
Seat color.
If they were filming with both the full and shell Bentleys and are as bad at continuity as some people would like to believe, then there should be some discrepancies in scenes between which cars have rear door handles and brown seats, right? Realistically if they're having all these continuity errors with color grading seat covers and such then there's got to be something here.
Shax calls Crowley and shows up: No rear handle, brown interior
Crowley after refusing to hide Gabriel: No rear handle, brown interior
Crowley sleeping in tactical turtleneck: No rear handle, brown interior
So, maybe they only used the Full!Bentley for scenes where the car is driving on Circus Lane? Well even if that's the case they had the continuity forethought to remove the rear door handles from the Full!Bentley in post because in all scenes in that location it has no rear door handles, and a brown interior, even when in motion.
We are given this lovely wide shot of the Bentley at the end of episode 2, just before Aziraphale takes it to Edinburgh and permanently changes the Bentley. No rear handles, almost looks like it may have the grey side detailing like in season 1. I think the intention with this shot is exactly to give us a good look at the car. Even the 1941 flashback shows us that the car then has no rear door handles and a brown interior.
Tumblr media
When Aziraphale leaves Whickber street we get a clear shot of him in the driver's seat with brown seats and when the car drives away you can see it has no rear door handles. Then the next time we see the car we get this:
Tumblr media
We get an adorable Yellow!Bentley moment, again no rear door handles, but when our angel changes it back, the car is a solid black 4-door with a blue/black interior. You can clearly see the rear door handle for the remainder of season 2, and from here on out the interior is always black.
Tumblr media
And if you think I'm a nutter for going on about the presence/absence of the rear door handles, take a look at these photos of the actual Bentley that was purchased for season 2, before it was painted/modified for the show. Seems a lot of trouble to go through to make a point of omitting them consistently via editing for half the season for no reason?
Tumblr media Tumblr media
What's mah point? Mah point...
Is that maybe there weren't two different cars, but the Bentley definitely permanently changed during Aziraphale's Edinburgh excursion and Crowley not only doesn't mention it, he doesn't even seem to notice.
It seems an awful big oversight to use two completely different colored interiors and not notice it or change it in post. I mean, It really wouldn't have even been that hard to just get some different colored seat covers if that was truly what was going on here.
I think the Bentley clearly changes and now the only questions I have are why, and why is it not mentioned. I am slowly falling into an abyss of differing POV's, that we are being told this story from changing perspectives, and I'm currently working on writing a few different writings detailing those ideas. If you haven't checked out my bit on the different lens filters used for filming, check that out, because it was definitely another stepping stone on the path I'm headed down.
Is the Bentley's change evidence of a perspective change/change in narrator? Is it simply that "our car" appears physically different and Crowley doesn't have any objections, so he doesn't mention it? And why is Neil being weird about it?
Let me know your thoughts!

thinking about the fact that from a human’s perspective crowley is just some skinny middle aged goth dude with dyed red hair and a face tattoo who drives an almost hundred year old car to his complete opposite aesthetic boyfriend’s bookshop nearly every day. why? because he can, that’s why.

I didn't want to leave, Crowley. I didn't have a choice. I'm doing this for you. For us. We're still on our side.

Just a gentle reminder that Neil Gaiman is the most wonderful and chaotic person to have ever graced us with his presence.
And maybe someone should check on David.
