Interview: Thomas Walmsley from Temples
Tumblr media
Thomas right after our interview at Mascotte, shot with my old Canon.
I remember watching Temples play for the first time five years ago. It was at the little Komplex Klub in Zurich. They had just released their album Sun Structures and they blew me away. The crowd went wild as well. After that night I kept coming to their concerts whenever they came back to Switzerland, for example in Montreux or during Paleo Festival. These big stages were great, but when they announced a concert at Mascotte last November I got pretty excited – Mascotte is a smaller venue, so it was guaranteed that the energy in the room would be more intense. And indeed, we got rowdy.
I was even happier to hear that Thomas kindly agreed to have a little chat with me before the show. Join us as we talk about the band’s album Hot Motion, rehearsing in a little town called Kettering, our local Swiss legends Klaus Johann Grobe and Piet from Taxi Gauche, and more.
Many thanks to Temples and management for this great evening!
What is your life like these days? I guess you are not living in Kettering anymore right?
Thomas Walmsley: We all used to live in Kettering when we were growing up, but it’s been a long time since we’ve lived there. In fact, before the band had even started, we were already living in different places – so various spots around the UK. Our drummer is from the Netherlands, so he lives out there at the moment. We’re more of an international band than we used to be, but we still come back to Kettering to rehearse. In fact, maybe we rehearse more than we ever have because we don’t live as near each other, so it has completely worked in our favor!
Tonight you’re also going to DJ with Taxi Gauche at Kater bar after the show. How did you meet the founder of the label, Piet Alder?
I haven’t met him yet! I’ve known him from a friend of ours who plays in a band called Klaus Johann Grobe. One thing led to another, and I am just going to play some records afterwards, it should be fun!
Speaking of Klaus Johann Grobe, I interviewed them as well! They told me they used to tour with you guys.
They did, quite a few years ago now! We toured with them around England and Europe. That was fun. It’s great to see them go from strength to strength and have some great success, especially in the United States. For us, their sound has a very strong European grounding. So I can only imagine for an American, it’s something otherworldly!
Would you like to write a song with them?
Probably! I mean, we’ve never done something like that before but we love their influences. I don’t know if that would ever happen, but that would be fun! We can dream!
Tumblr media
Temples at Mascotte, shot with my old Canon.
Let’s talk a bit about Hot Motion. Could you tell me more about the song You’re either on Something? It’s one of my favorites from the album, and I love all the little details like the little guitar arpeggios!
Traditionally, you keep adding to a recording. You layer up and it’s the individual layers together that create an atmosphere. But that song in particular is very driven by the drums and the bass. When it came to the guitars, we wanted something sparse and loose, and a bit more avant-garde with note choice. It’s a bit more angular. So if it helps create an atmosphere on that song that’s great!
I really liked the video as well. Your older videos were just as beautiful, but not as funny as this one!
The video is mainly James’ concept. We just wanted something that was narrative-based and told a story. The song tells a story over the course of an evening, so the video had to do the same. And rather it be serious, it is meant to be quite tongue-in-cheek and lighthearted. The song itself is tongue-in-cheek, so you needed a video worthy to match the sentiment!
Tumblr media
Would you say you are more of a holy horse lighting the sky, or a wolf howling at the moon?
Personally, I would go for The Howl, but it’s not really a wolf in that song! It’s more of a panther, a very large cat! Instead of meowing, it just howls.
Oh no, I got it all wrong!
Traditionally a wolf would howl, so you’re right there. But I guess howl sounds a bit more impressive than meow! (laughs)
What can we expect from Temples in the future?
We’re currently trying to tour as many places as possible, and I presume that we’ll continue for the next year also. We’re going to try and record new music as well, as soon as we can – keeping creative as well as playing live, rather than focusing on one or the other.

The Partnership of Mrs. Bateman and the Chevalière d’Eon
Tumblr media
[Right: Mrs Bateman, print c.1793 by Marino or Mariano Bovi (Bova), after Ludwig Guttenbrun, via the National Portrait Gallery
Left: Mademoiselle La Chevaliere d’Eon de Beaumont, print c.1787 by Thomas Chambers (Chambars), after Richard Cosway, via the National Portrait Gallery]
Mrs. Bateman was an English actress, singer and fencer. In the 1790′s she traveled Britain with d’Eon putting on fencing displays. I could not find much about her life either before or after her partnership with d’Eon. Men and Women of Soho admits to having “not, at present, discovered the date of Mrs. Bateman’s birth or death.” (p6) However A Biographical Dictionary of Actors, Actresses, Musicians, Dancers, Managers & Other Stage Personnel in London, 1660-1800 speculates she may have been Mary Bateman née Humphry (1765-1829) who was buried at St Paul’s, Covent Garden. (v1 p376-8) Certainly the dates and location seem to match up.
Its unclear how the two met, but its possible Bateman was one of d’Eon’s students. In August 1792 d’Eon had “opened a fencing School, which is much frequented by the younger Nobility.” (Evening Mail, 6-8 Aug 1792) A Biographical Dictionary of Actors... states that Bateman had been “D’Eon’s pupil since 1792” but it’s unclear what their source is.
The two were clearly acquainted by the 29th of November 1792 when the Morning Chronicle reports:
The Chevalier D’Eon and Mrs. Bateman are made honorary members of the Club d’Arms; so that these heroines, if they are not, like the Fernigs, fighting in the field of war, are at least preparing for the conflict. This is, however, very menacing-if our ladies take to the small sword, the constitution is undone.
Their professional association started in January 1793. Mrs. Bateman held a series of subscription breakfasts at her house in Soho. After breakfast fencing matches were held for everyones entertainment. Both d’Eon and Bateman fenced at these events. The Diary or Woodfall's Register reported that d’Eon complimented Bateman’s fencing skills describing her as “a youngling in her nest, that would rise and support the honour of female heroism in England.”
The World reported that 500 people attended the second event on the 16th. “At one,” writes the London Chronicle, “breakfast being finished, Mademoiselle assumed her former characters and sustained two assaults; the first with Captain Ross, an Irish gentleman, the second with Mr. Scott. It was allowed by all the company, that a greater display of science and dexterity was scarcely ever seen.”
The World reported that “the greatest display of sprit and science, were between Mr. Hill and Mr. Hume, Capt. Walslby, and Mademoiselle D’Eon.” Soho and Its Associations shares the following anecdote from the event:
Mrs. Bateman gave an elegant amusement to a party of about 500 ladies and gentlemen at noon. ‘Le Chevalier D'Eon fenced,’ says a newspaper of the period; ‘she sustained four assaults from Capt. Walmsley, and in the loose play refused a mask, saying, “I have defended my virginity fifty years without, and now cannot adopt it.”’
(see Diary or Woodfall's Register, 12 Jan 1793 and 18 Jan 1793; The World, 17 Jan 1793; the London Chronicle, 17 Jan 1793; Soho and Its Associations p72)
Tumblr media
[Admission ticket for “Geneviéve d'Eon At Mrs Batemans, No 1 Carlisle Street Soho, on Wednesday January 16 at 12 O'clock.” c.1793, via the British Museum]
On Thursday the 30th of May 1793 Mrs. Bateman held a benefit night at the King’s Theatre in Haymarket. There was a performance of All in the Wrong. Mrs. Bateman played Lady Restless. Elizabeth Farren (who was rumoured to be Anne Damer’s lover) played Belinda.
“Mrs. Bateman was honoured last night with the appearance of a most numerous and splendid company. Every part of the Theatre was full, and the Boxes were decorated by and uncommon display of beauty and fashion.” Reports the Morning Chronicle, “After the play, the Chevalier D’Eon in generosity of friendship, displayed her wonderful talent in fencing. She first pushed carte and tierce with her youthful imitator, Mrs. Bateman.” D’Eon then fenced a gentleman. In preparation she “pulled off her jacket, and thus stripped to her stays,” reports The Times, “with her handkerchief loose over them, and short petticoats that did not come half way down her legs”.
“It is impossible to describe the wonder and delight of the House, at the agility and muscular strength displayed by the Chevalier,” reports the Morning Chronicle, “Mademoiselle D’Eon has lived long enough in England to adopt the most amiable traits in our manners, and she may be assured, that it will raise her in the esteem of the country she loves.”
The Sun was less impressed by the performance complaining that “the indecent circumstance of her stripping herself to her stays, preparatory to her fencing, gave a very general disgust.” The Times conceded credit to “the Lady’s science and activity” but was horrified “to see an old masculine woman of sixty thus attired, and publicly exposing herself on the stage,” declaring that it was “an indecency which we shall never suffer to pass by without a very severe animadversion.” And the St. James's Chronicle or the British Evening Post snipes that d’Eon gratified the audience’s “curiosity rather than admiration.”
(A full cast list can be seen in the advertisement printed in the Diary or Woodfall's Register, 25 May 1793; For reports of the event see: Morning Chronicle, 31 May 1793; The Times, 31 May 1793; Sun, 31 May 1793; St. James's Chronicle or the British Evening Post, 30 May - 1 June 1793.)
D’Eon’s next fencing match took place at Ranelagh on Wednesday the 26th of June and was against Monsieur Saniville. Saniville had previously fenced the Chevalier de Saint-Georges. There was considerable excitement leading up to the match. The Times reports that the event “engrosses at present the conversation of the beau monde. This extraordinary Lady has always been renowned for her skill in the art of Fencing, and from her attacking so capital a fencer as Mr. Sainville, she must still have the same ideas of her own superiority.”
So many applications were made for boxes for the event that the Managers of Ranelagh had to “inform the public that no preference can be given any more of that night than on any other” but they assured that “the Fencing Stage which is erected before the Prince’s box, is so situated that the Assault may be seen by the Company with the greatest conveniency.”
The Gazetteer and New Daily Advertiser reports that: “Mad. D’Eon hit her antagonist very often in the first assault; but that in the second she received many fine thrust from Mr. Sainville!” The Morning Herald reports that d’Eon displayed “a vigour and firmness incredible to her age.” and that Sainville’s “dexterity, easiness and the sureness of his thrusts, are so much increased since his last assault with Mr. St. George”.
(For the lead up to the event see: The Times, 24 June 1793; Morning Post, 22 June 1793. For an advertisement for the event see: Star and Evening Advertiser, 22 June 1793. For the message from the Managers of Ranelagh see: Diary or Woodfall's Register, 25 June 1793. For reports of the event see: Gazetteer and New Daily Advertiser, 28 June 1793; Morning Herald, 29 June 1793)
While d’Eon continued fencing, Mrs. Bateman had been improving as an actress. “Mrs. Bateman is in great estimation at Richmond as an actress.” Reports the Morning Post, “She has more exercise for her talents, and is of course, exceedingly improved.” (Morning Post, 21 August 1793)
On Friday the 23rd of August, 1793, the Theatre Royal in Richmond held a production of The School for Scandal followed by The Citizen. Mrs Batman played Lady Teazle in The School for Scandal and Maris in The Citizen. “In the course of the Evening, (by Particular, Desire of several Persons of Distinction)” reads an advertisement in the Morning Post, “The celebrated CHEVALIERE D’EON, Will FENCE with A NOBLEMAN.”
A reporter at the St. James's Chronicle or the British Evening Post was appalled by d’Eon’s attire:
A disgusting fight was exhibited on Friday Evening last, at the Richmond Theatre—the Chevalier D’Eon fencing with a gentleman. Her merit, as a fencer, is great; but we were hurt to see her displaying that merit on a publick stage, and in a dress that was scarcely decent. She seemed to have but one petticoat on, while a pair of immense pockets dangled on the outside. If she deems is prudent to make a publick display of her fencing abilities, would it not be better to reassume the dress of a man?
( Morning Post, 21 Aug 1793; Morning Post 22 Aug 1793; St. James's Chronicle or the British Evening Post, 27-29 Aug 1793.)
D’Eon and Bateman arrived in Brighton in late August. Reporting from Brighton, The World writes that on the 31st of August “Madam D’Eon is here renovating her strength by exercise and bathing.” And on the 1st of September “D’Eon, and Mrs. Bateman, are arrived here; the latter is to make her appearance in Lady Teazle and the Irish Widow, on Wednesday next; every place is already taken-It is hinted, that Mad. D’Eon is to fence. They are much courted by the fashionables.” The military camp near Brighton was excited by the prospect of the entertainment. Especially by the news that “D’Eon is to fence with an Officer of Brighton.”
On the 3rd of September Mrs. Bateman preformed in Bridget, the Chapter of Accidents and Widow Brady. “The Theatre last night was better attended than on any former occasion ever witnessed in Brighton-” reports The World, “Mrs. Bateman went through both her parts with the upmost spirit and vivacity, and received the warmest applause; the Performers in general went beyond their usual style of acting.”
D’Eon then fenced with an officer. “She was dressed in armour, with a helmet and feathers-” reports The World, “her antagonist, with all the advantages of youth, activity and a considerable share of skill, had the worst of the contest.” The Morning Post reports that “Several of the Militia Heroes fainted during the contest.”
(The World, 2, 3, 6, 7 & 9 Sept 1793; Morning Post 19 Sept 1793)
During their stay in Brighton, Bateman preformed at the Margate Theatre. “The two nights that the Chevalier fenced the house was crowded, a circumstance rather surprising at this time of year,” reports the Morning Chronicle, “but so improvident was the engagement which Mrs. Bateman made with Mr. Wells, the Acting Manager, that their profits were by no means sufficient to defray the expenses of their journey.” When the Duchess of Cumberland heard of this she began a subscription for d’Eon, who “was so affected that she even shed tears.” Mrs. Bateman presented to the Mess, a poem “said to be written by Wm. S----d, Esq”, which included the following lines about d’Eon:
Our heroine, who, with wondrous pow’rs of art
Has play’d thro’ motley life, full many a part;
And who, with equal ease and praise alike,
Can write a folio, or can trail a pike;
Can as a deep and learned Lawyer shine,
Or coolly try the diplomatic line;
Can, like Bellona, rage an actual war,
Or at fencing-match desporting spar;
Can a fine Lady’s airs and ease assume,
The admiration of a Drawing Room;
Who, with a courage yet untaught to yield,
Has mow’d down legions in the tented field;
Has the fierce Despot’s vengeance dar’d to brave,
And mock’d alike the prison and the grave;
And tho’ a host of Myrmidons attack,
Disdain’d alike the Bastile and the Rack.
But now, alas! our matchless maid appears,
For the first time, a woman-by her tears.
Nay, she e’en boasts them as tribute due
To that support she has received form you;
And, sobbing, thus requests me to impart,
The feelings of her charged, and grateful heart:-
(Morning Chronicle, 23 Oct 1793)
The Officers of the East Essex, inspired by the Duchess of Cumberland, invited Mrs. Bateman and d’Eon to Deal where “they gave a Ball; D’Eon fenced, and a purse of ten guineas was sent to her the next day.” At the parade on Sunday one of the officers presented d’Eon to the solders as a woman who had “undergone all the vicissitudes of war. “Be only, my boys,” said he, “as brave as this woman, and the Sans Culottes may land at Deal as soon as they please.”” (London Evening Post, 5-7 Nov 1793)
On the 28th of November The World reports that d’Eon and Bateman were in Canterbury visiting Lady Fielding. D’Eon had “signified her intention of making a Public Assault in every town she visits, the profits of which are to be applied towards providing flannel and other comfortable necessaries for our brave troops". However I’m not sure which other towns the two visited.
By May 1794 d’Eon was back fencing at Ranelagh, where on the 26th she faced M. Recouvrot. “Mademoiselle D’Eon appeared upon the stage, dressed in the uniform she formerly wore as Captain of Dragoons” reports the Oracle, she “fenced with as much grace and agility as if in the vigour of youth; and met her antagonist with such dexterity as to oblige him often to retreat.” (Morning Post, 26 May 1794; Oracle, 28 May 1794)
In August d’Eon and Bateman return to Brighton. Bateman “plays all the Hoydens in an excellent stile, and D’Eon fences;” reports the Morning Post “thus they manage to draw all the Company in Town.” (Morning Post, 6, 14 & 25 Aug 1794; Oracle, 13 Aug 1794)
On the 30th of August it was announced that Bateman and d’Eon were engaged to perform in Cork and Dublin. The Morning Post writes that d’Eon’s exhibitions will “be an amazing treat to the People of Ireland, as she has never been in that Kingdom.” (Morning Post, 30 Aug 1794)
On the 16th of September d’Eon was fencing in Bristol, the Morning Post reports that “she has given a challenge, which has been received, to the Fencing Master there, to fence with marked foils on that day three months.” On the 23rd she arrived in Waterford and the next day set off for Cork. (Morning Post, 19 Sept and 21 Oct, 1794; Oracle, 30 Sept 1794)
In Cork its reported that Mrs. Bateman “cast down the gauntlet to any bold Irishman, that dare come forward and push with her Quarte and Tierce. When the Curtain arose, a Drayman in the Gallery called out, “By J--- I will accept the Challenge, and will drink four quarts to her one, and lift a Tearce with her or any other Jontleman in the Theatre” (Morning Post, 27 Oct 1794)
By the 3rd of March Mrs. Bateman had returned from Ireland but “her friend d’Eon is so much indisposed as to be obliged to stop at Liverpool.” (Morning Chronicle, 3 Mar 1795)
On the 28th of May 1795 “Mrs. Bateman nearly put an end to her existence” reports the Oracle, “Not having slept for two or three nights, she imprudently took a great quantity of laudanum with spirits of salts!” The incident was reported as an accident that was “happily perceived time enough to save her life; but she still lies very ill at her house in Wimpole-street.” (Oracle 29, May 1795)
On the 10th of October 1795 the Morning Post reports that:
Madame D’Eon and Mrs. Bateman, have dissolved Partnership, and the latter sprightly Dame, now pushes Quarte and Tierce on her own account.
D’Eon also continued fencing, on the 28th of December, the Morning Post reports that d’Eon “is now performing at Bath, unaccompanied by her former friend Mrs. Bateman.”
It’s not clear why their partnership, and it seems friendship, dissolved. But it was certainly a spectacle of the stage while it lasted.

MY THREE SONS at 60!
September 29, 1960
Tumblr media
“My Three Sons” was a situation comedy produced at Desilu Studios. It premiered on ABC TV on September 29, 1960 and finished its first run on April 13, 1972, with 380 episodes making it the second-longest running live-action sitcom in TV history after “The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriett” (1952-66). 
Tumblr media
Seasons 1 through 5 were aired in black and white on CBS.  In 1965 it moved to CBS when ABC declined to underwrite the costs of airing in color.  The series was initially filmed at Desilu Studios in Hollywood, but at the start of the 1967–68 season, the cast and crew began filming the series at the CBS Studio Center in Studio City, California due to Lucille Ball’s sale of Desilu to Gulf + Western, which owned Paramount Pictures. The sale also affected the filming location of another family sitcom, “Family Affair.”
Incredibly, “My Three Sons” ran concurrently through both “The Lucy Show” and “Here’s Lucy.” Both Steve Douglas and Lucy Carmichael (and later Carter), where single parents raising children. 
Tumblr media
September 16, 1965 was a big night for CBS airing the very first episode of “My Three Sons” after moving from ABC titled “The First Marriage”. It was also the first episode of the series broadcast in color, something “The Lucy Show” did three days earlier with “Lucy at Marineland” (TLS S4;E1). The premise of the series is a widowed father (Steven Douglas) raising his three boys with help of his extended family.  Initially, the three sons were Chip, Robbie, and Mike, but in 1967 Mike was written out and replaced by Ernie, whom Steve adopted.  The extended family at first consisted of Bub, Steve’s father-in-law and the boys’ maternal grandfather, but in 1964, that character was replaced by Uncle Charley, Steve’s uncle and Bub’s brother.

The leading role was played by film star Fred MacMurray, who the series was built around - including his hectic schedule. To suit MacMurray, scenes would be shot out of sequence and even alone on a soundstage and later edited to create a complete episode.  This was not MacMurray’s first time at Desilu. In 1958 he played himself on the “Lucy-Desi Comedy Hour” in “Lucy Hunts Uranium” set in the Nevada desert outside Las Vegas. He was joined by his second wife, actress June Haver. MacMurray (1908-91) appeared in over 100 films in his career but is perhaps best remembered for the film Double Indemnity (1944), which Lucy references in this episode. MacMurray’s name was first mentioned by Ethel in 1953 in “The Black Eye” (ILL S2;E20) when flowers arrive for Lucy mistakenly signed “Eternally yours, Fred.”
Although Lucille Ball was their landlord (and ultimate boss) she never acted on the show, but many of the actors who appeared on Lucille Ball’s sitcoms did appear on “My Three Sons”.

From 1960 to 1965, MacMurray was joined by William Frawley as Bub O’Casey, the family’s live-in maternal grandfather. Of course, Frawley came to fame on “I Love Lucy” as the crusty landlord Fred Mertz. Frawley had worked with MacMurray in the 1935 film, Car 99. When Frawley had to leave  the show due to ill-health (and it was too costly to insure him) he was replaced by another Desilu alumni, William Demarest, as Uncle Charley. Like his previous co-star, Vivian Vance, Frawley was not especially fond of Demarest personally or as an actor. Demarest had, however, done three films with Lucille Ball. Frawley kept watching “My Three Sons” on his TV set bitterly. He never really got over being replaced by Demarest. On March 3, 1966, Frawley died of a heart attack.

For Christmas 1959, Frawley and Demarest both appeared with Lucy and Desi in “The Desilu Revue” (above with “December Bride’s” Spring Byington). At the time, Demarest was working on the Desilu lot appearing in NBC’s “Love and Marriage.”

On “My Three Sons” two of  Steve Douglas’ boys had been seen on “The Lucy Show”: Don Grady (Robbie Douglas) had played Chris Carmichael’s friend Bill and Barry Livingston (Ernie Douglas) had played Mr. Mooney’s son Arnold. Ted Eccles, who assumed the role of Arnold Mooney when Barry Livingston was busy on “My Three Sons,” also did an episode.

The children of “The Lucy Show,” Ralph Hart (who played Viv Bagley’s son Sherman), Jimmy Garrett (Jerry Carmichael), and Candy Moore (Lucy Carmichael’s daughter Chris) were also on episodes of "My Three Sons.”

Hosted by Shirley Jones and Fred MacMurray this would be the only time that the surviving cast members would get together to celebrate the series which included clips, a song from David Cassidy, and an update of what each cast member was doing in 1977.
