Re: The HLV shooting script

If they cut the No Homo headline, maybe it's because it wasn't a lie after all!   But I don't think so - maybe it was cut because it's not actually a terribly good pun!  Or even because there wasn't much time for people to think about the pun.   Or perhaps not even cut deliberately.

I think the hug in TLD was a hug worth waiting for.

Re: The HLV shooting script

I prefer it without the "no homo" headline, just to make it clear. Very clumsy writing IMO.

I agree.

Re: The HLV shooting script

I'm still wondering what a "proper, manly" embrace looks like.

Re: The HLV shooting script

I'm imagining a big, close, tight bearhug.   But I think I prefer the more tender TLD hug.

Yep. That.

Re: The HLV shooting script

Yeah, probably. I just thought it slightly funny to emphasize "manly" when you have a hug between two men.

I've been wondering the same. Maybe a bit like the hug that Lestrade gave Sherlock when he returned in TEH.

Re: The HLV shooting script

I think a proper, manly embrace does not extend to stroking the other man's arm and putting your cheek on his head.

Yep. An important distinction.

Re: The HLV shooting script

A manly embrace isn't really appropriate when trying to comfort a grieving man.

Oh, yes. Now I'm curious how the TEH script describe that hug.

Re: The HLV shooting script

I loved that hug!  But yes, different hugs for different occasions.  In a way, I think the TLD hug is all the more powerful for them not being so touchy-feely over the years.

Re: The HLV shooting script

Yes and it was just a lovely, comforting hug.
Oh sorry, I'm referring th the TLD one...
But yes I've said it before and I'll say it again, th Lestrade hug is exactly what John shoud have done...
