I looked on my TVs schedule; when is it supposed to air??
Either Wed or Thurs at 10pm, right?
Because it wasn't on this week....was it something already done?

Patti

She couldn't hold that spoiler until we've at least had a chance to watch the episodes?  Thanks so much, grrr.

THANK YOU MIDNITE....I FEEL THE SAME. Now I don't know if I want to watch it....

And, perhaps, once upon a time, if you contacted stations, they listened.

But,  I remember WRITING to ScyFi about please continue airing DS ('99-03/4), to no avail.

Does anyone know when it was commonplace to have a basement?

Without modern excavators, etc., how long would it take for men to dig all that dirt out?

(My father bought a late 1800s Victorian, with a basement.)

Plus, and I have no idea, how do you keep the foundation (the bottom, where you walk, NOT the basement) up? (I'm not sure if I phrased that correctly.)

Root cellars have been around, but, since a house is not on top of them, they're strickly dirt, terra firma. Wine cellars if I'm not mistaken, are also inside 'dirt' (temperature underground I believe is always 54' F).

Ep #123, coffee shop, 1st, Maggie & Joe.

Joe: Well, let's just say Carolyn & I have crossed each other's names off our Christmas card lists. (Now, most women would say, "Oh, we're Christmas card friends"), so, that's not a huge thing.

Enter: * A blonde woman.

Joe & Maggie, still some more 'bantering'. Exit Joe.

Maggie goes up to afore mentioned * blonde woman, pours her some coffee, profers her a menu.

Blonde woman goes up to Maggie, chit-chat (really phishing), asking about Collinsport.
Then, inquires about Mrs. Stoddard, then Roger.

Maggie:.....well, let's just say he's the man mostly likely to give an imitation of Scrooge THIS CHRISTMAS.

Little bit later, Maggie: Are you here for THE HOLIDAYS?

So boys & girls, ONE holiay IS in fact mentioned 3 times in ep 123!!


* - - - DSFMS
I would have sworn the first time we see Laura is at the very end of an ep, walking up to the counter, and only at the last moment does she look toward the camera.

Through the years, I've read what some cousins have mentioned about the exteriors (and, what real buildings they are).

Until these early eps, I never noticed/saw them.

I'm specifically mentioning shots of David going into the Old House. The columns are very high. That wasn't common until mid-1800s, was it? The columns themselves are very wide (although, this might be 'perspective', i.e., David is a boy).

Which real life building are the shots of the exterior of the Old House?

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

More on Buildings:


While trying to find Victoria AGAINSTILLMORE, I think it's Burke who asks Elizabeth how many buildings are on the grounds; she says just the main house, the O.H., some sheds, (I think she says a barn, but, I could be wrong on that), and she says the caretakers house.

At it's height, there were *I believe* 3 'other' small houses on the grounds (not including main or old houses), nor Seacrest.

Am I correct, or, incorrect?


Patti

a TV staging of THE CRUCIBLE

Wow! What character did he play?

I cannot for any stretch of the imagination picture T.D. in Breakfast. I just can't (again, I'm watching him as scruffy Matthew Morgan).

Very cool that so many of his current or to be current co-workers from DS were in this; it was at the same time I'm assuming...?

Where was this, Broadway?

Thanks

Patti

If you haven't watched eps 100-200, this may be spoilage for you.


Okay, Matthew is currently hiding out at the Old House. (I had never actually seen these before.)

I won't ask how/when he 'isn't around' anymore; just, approximately how many eps between T. David as MM, and Ben Stokes?


In T. David's life, does anyone know what he was doing?

Thanks

Patti
