North & South.
North & South.
North & South.
My favorite bloggers were talking about this BBC film, posting pictures of a handsome man, tempting me with talk about how wonderfully romantic North & South was. I drove myself crazy for weeks trying to track down a copy. And when I finally did…I was, quite simply, in love. With both the man and the film.
To say that I then devoured the man’s body of work would be an understatement. I instantly craved everything he’d ever done: film, serial shows, audiobooks, Cbeebies. Everything. And I got my hands on all of it as quickly as possible. My adoration grew with each new thing. And adoring Richard Armitage yielded more benefits than I imagined; he brought new, virtual friends into my life, and gave me something to rhapsodize over with those I was already blessed with. With his upcoming roles in Captain America and The Hobbit, they’ll be plenty more to talk about, I’m sure.
I both gave North and South as a Christmas gift and received it as one. Yay Richard Armitage!
I gifted it this Christmas, too! Must spread the Armitage love.
This was me in 2008. I am still in love with North and South, Harry from Vicar of Dibley, the sound of his voice, etc etc etc
