Andrew Scott in The Town
The Town made for ITV1 in the UK will be airing early next month. Here's a great article which combines what must be a combination made in heaven: Andrew, s.e.x., and chocolate! 
Bet that's peaked your interest!

Re: Andrew Scott in The Town
Too funny. Do you have chocolate-covered potato chips (crisps) in that part of the world?

Re: Andrew Scott in The Town
Yep...or hang on, do we?
I think they are actually crisp shaped chocolates!

Re: Andrew Scott in The Town
You mean those ones that look like Pringles but are made of chocolate? Yummy.

Re: Andrew Scott in The Town
They're reall potato chips (crisps) dipped in chocolate. Kill two birds with one stone.
I think we Americans, at least, will dip anything in chocolate. And will put bacon (American) on or in anything. Yes, before you ask, I've seen bacon and chocolate together.
Getting this thread back on topic-- Davina, did the yummy refer to Andrew or the chocolate and chips?

Re: Andrew Scott in The Town
BOTH! I've got a soft spot for the Irish...especially their accents.
As an addendum...my daughter has also been known to combine chocolate and bacon, specifically Nutella and bacon.

Re: Andrew Scott in The Town
Sounds like a really interesting show and I can't wait to see it. Andrew had a small part in The Hour last season, but he was woefully under used. Having seen his Moriarty, I'm looking forward to the great things he'll do in the future.
As for the chocolate debate, you could probably dip just about anything in chocolate and it would taste good. Though I love bacon, I might have to draw the line there.

Re: Andrew Scott in The Town
Wonder when and if we'll ever be able to see it on this side of the pond.

Re: Andrew Scott in The Town
Well I watched the first part, too.
It's interesting...
Judging by the trailer, Andrew looks like he'll be doing naughty things with a lady next week...so I may have to turn away at that part!

Re: Andrew Scott in The Town
I think that must be where the chocolate played its part, as it were. Oo err Missus!

Absolute filth... I like how you think.
I can imagine the chocolate helped cope with the nerves of filming a sex scene with an entire crew stood behind you but to be honest I can't imagine many people needing any sort of hardcore persuasion... Or payment for that matter.
Agent: I need you to get naked and snog Andrew Scott.
Me: How much?
Agent: A packet of chocolate buttons-
Me: Done!

Re: Andrew Scott in The Town
Not wanting to post any spoilers but I did have to suspend my disbelief at one point during this episode. When the daughter wanders off near the start and no-one bats an eyelid. Considering the circumstances I think they would be extremely concerned for her.
I thought Andrew was wonderful but then he always is. Strong performances all round. Their accents ae a bit off for the Midlands, but I'll forgive them that..

Re: Andrew Scott in The Town
I know what you mean Davina but I put that down to the general incompetence of the 'small town police force.' I'm assuming that is going to be addressed at some point before this drama unfolds completely.
