Catherine RussellMany, many years ago my father wrote a little #book of maxims. Some are obvious, some I disagree with, some are pompous, and some are rather good. There are 8 chapters.
#actors spend a lot of time #unemployed!

He had a real 🐝 in his 👒 about theft. Not entirely sure where that came from.

Sorry, rather dropped the ball with this thread. Back on it now. The last of CONDUCT. I like 24.
MANNERS. I strongly disagree with number 2. After all, isn’t #acting a #game entered into for fun? And what has it to do with manners? However, I strongly agree with number 6, though I might add confident. And the first sentence of number 7 is a sad truth. I wonder what my Dad would have made of #Twitter?!
MISTAKES. 1 and 4 seem to me to be the same. And I would add that mistakes are essential in any artistic endeavour, the #mistakes are where the #magic is.
And now onto the last and longest chapter, entitled GENERAL. I think I will toot them individually as some are really rather good.
“Anything, or anyone, can be ridiculed; but the good and the worthwhile are not invalidated by being laughed at.”
Which reminds me of this -
NuddaOz Steph🇭🇲@CatherineRussell2 Sorry, but I just saw you get shot and die in Inspector Linley. I have never seen the last few series. I cried. You died well. Emotional.
@NuddaOz my mother hated watching that.
LuckyLadyinStepneyAgree with Nudda, you really spiced that show up. I hated that they killed you off but honestly I thought it was a realistic scene. Sometimes actors don't die well. It's on #BritboxUS if anyone wants to watch. (Also loved the hair 😃)
Tracy T Wilson@NuddaOz @LuckyLadyInStepney @CatherineRussell2 I read the books, so I should have known, but it still came as a shock.
@CatherineRussell2 I am not surprised. Did you give her the heads up on this sort of scene beforehand, or with the whole series. Did, or do you watch your own shows? Yes, just curious!!
