how well do you think everyone can cook?
My personal feeling is that Eric is a good cook, Nuala is a weird cook (she’ll have learned to cook quite odd and random combinations of food but it always turns out well), and then Daisy, Hazel and May cannot cook at all. I think Daisy in particular would burn water, despite all Mrs D and Hetty’s attempts.
(I know this is slightly contradicted by the existence of Cream Buns and Crime, and the scenes where they help out in/visit kitchens. But I think there’s a vast difference between following someone else’s orders and recipe and just being left in a kitchen to get on with it.)

I'd drawn this before @redbreastedbird answered the question saying George's missing leg is the right one, so we'll ignore that inconsistency, but here is a language lesson at the Ministry!

19, 24 & 25 for the MMU ask game please!
19. Best location
Cambridge University!!! The vibes are immaculate, Bertie's there, the night climbing... impeccable. MAM did in fact set off a fixation on Cambridge Uni for a while
24. Best book cover
The Body In The Blitz! I love the fact that you can see May, Eric and Nuala's faces, because I can't see characters' faces in my head :D also Eric with Pfote and May in his shorts!!!
I also love ALL the American covers for this reason. There is also something to be said for the gorgeous shininess of Death Sets Sail
25. Favourite character who's like mentioned maybe once
Lallie Thompson-Bates! (She's in Top Marks For Murder). Both her parents are attempted murderers, so are probably locked up and I always feel for Lallie and what happens to her. I think she has a lot in common with Hazel and I actually have a few snippets of a fic with them talking about their parents

"You know we want to make an episode like the X-Files' 'Home.' Let's make an episode that the network will air once and then people will complain so much they'll never air it again."

The X-Files - 4x03 (aired as 4x02) Home
Q. Did you have any sense that what you were doing might be controversial?
A. Wong: We were obligated to do four episodes that season, and we thought this was the most down-the-middle, straightforward "X-Files" of all of them. As it turns out it, it was one they never repeated until several years later.
Q. What was the rationale?
A. Wong: I think it had to do with the incest.
Q. There was also the buried baby in the opening scene.
A. Wong: Originally it was obviously alive when they buried it, but we changed it a little bit because it was too harsh. It was inspired by this book called "Dark Nature."
Morgan: It was about, is nature moral?
Wong: Nature is pretty heartless.
Morgan: So we had this family of human beings act as nature does. When the bird is sick, the mother kicks it out of the nest. Everybody seems to think that's fine and they love birds. But if a human does it, you get banned from TV.

Let's say — hypothetically — someone DOES NOT want to support Netflix, but DOES want to watch some of their stand-up comedy specials.
.............
Like, is there a cure for that?
I've heard about resources for lots of different kinds of streaming content. Movies, anime, TV series, whatever. It's crazy how much y'all have found out there on the webz.
Never seen ANY resource like those for stand-up comedy, though. Which is interesting.
