Just finished the series finale of Sex Education! I hate to see this marvelous show go, but all good things must come to an end. Here are some of my thoughts:
- This show had the best ending for all of the characters. The thing I admired most was how realistic it felt. Literally none of the oc’s ended up with anyone by the end of the show except Aimee and Isaac, Cal didn’t feel comfortable yet due to dysmorphia, Maeve will probably never know if her brother is okay, etc. I’m such a sucker for realism in shows when it’s done well, so I enjoyed that aspect
- Everyone had fantastic growth, but my favorite was definitely Ruby and the Groff men. Absolutely loved that they weren’t fully at their best potential by the end, but it’s obvious they’re trying, and I love them all for that
- I felt bad for Ruby and Maeve the most during the whole season. Both are facing loneliness in different formats
- I like that Maeve stood up for herself against the writing teacher
- I actually don’t like that a good chunk of the cast just straight up wasn’t there for the final season, but the show did a good job with the new characters filling in their spots
- This is a continuation of the first point, but I loved that Ruby didn’t end up befriending Otis by the end since she realized he’d always unintentionally make her feel bad about herself. Usually shows go for the happily ever after and enemies to friends thing, but this show kept it real. Good for you Ruby
- This show is really good at making antagonist. O pissed me off so much
-Loved Isaac and Aimee’s relationship a lot
- Adam was so adorable and so were his parents
-Such a sucker for the estrangement period Otis and Eric went through cuz that happens sometimes when two friends realize just how different they are
-Eric’s storyline was so much fun when it came to the whole Christianity Vs sexuality debate. I loved that they made god a beautiful black goddess (literally)
- Glad Viv got rid of that loser before it got worse
- I feel like we still didn’t get a lot of Cal, but that could just be me
- That was the most unserious yet serious funeral I’ve ever seen and that woman needs to be fired cuz how do you mess up the deceased’s name before the service in front of the dead’s daughter???
- I like the realism of Jackson’s father rejecting him. Sometimes the birth parents just don’t accept you. It sucks ass, but it’s something a lot of ppl unfortunately face when they search for their birth parent(s). Glad he has his moms at least
- This season made me realize how many enemies Otis has lol
- Watching Joanna and Jean’s scenes gave me life tbh
- I loved the protest for making sure the school provided proper care for disabled students. It’s ridiculous they didn’t fix the elevator or ensure deaf students are catered to when there’s alarms ringing, etc.
- The final scene was the perfect send off for this show
All in all, great season finale for a great show. I will miss this show with every fiber of my being, and I hope Netflix will create something as good as it in the future. I might add or subtract to this list, but for now, this is it.

I haven't drawn the mermen interacting with anyone but each other so I keep forgetting just how small I think they are. Henrik is pretty tall, but even so.

Sapphire & Steel have been reassigned! 
Big Finish’s acclaimed audio dramas based on the ITV Studios sci-fi/fantasy series Sapphire & Steel are now available to buy as downloads for the first time. 
Tumblr media
All irregularities will be handled by the forces controlling each dimension. Transuranic, heavy elements may not be used where there is life. Medium atomic weights are available: Gold, Lead, Copper, Jet, Diamond, Radium, Sapphire, Silver and Steel.  Sapphire and Steel have been assigned. 
Sapphire & Steel, created by P. J. Hammond, was originally broadcast between 1979 and 1982. It starred Joanna Lumley and David McCallum as a pair of “interdimensional operatives” tasked with protecting the flow of time. Each story would see them take human form as they showed up in a new location, to investigate a dangerous anomaly. 
Between May 2005 and August 2008, Big Finish released 15 full-cast audio dramas based on the TV series. The late David Warner took on McCallum’s part to play the stubborn Steel, whilst Susannah Harker slipped into Lumley’s role as Sapphire. 
For three of the audio stories, original TV guest star David Collings returned to recreate his performance as Silver. Other notable guest stars in the range included Mark Gatiss, Colin Baker, Sarah Douglas, Richard Franklin, Angela Bruce, Arthur Bostrom and Louise Jameson. 
The audio series was only ever released on CD and has been unavailable for more than a decade.  
Now, in association with ITV Studios, all three series have been re-released as downloads, giving fans the chance to relisten or indeed discover the adventures for the first time. 
Each series comes packaged with a brand-new 30-minute behind-the-scenes featurette, offering an insight into the production of these beloved adventures. 
All three series are available to buy at an exclusive early-bird price for the first month; Series One (comprising five stories) is available for just £19.99, Series Two (comprising six stories) is just £24.99, and Series Three (four stories) is £19.99. 
Big Finish chairman Jason Haigh-Ellery said: “We are delighted to have reached an agreement with ITV Studios to bring back our Sapphire & Steel releases as downloads. We have received regular requests over the years for it to be made available again, so we’re pleased that a whole new generation of listeners will be able to hear the late, great David Warner as Steel and Susannah Harker as Sapphire.” 
Nigel Fairs, who produced the series, added: “I’m absolutely delighted that people will be able to hear our version of Sapphire & Steel again, as it really was a labour of love. Re-imagining such a visual television series for audio was no easy task, but I think my decision to concentrate on the emotional story arcs of the characters who encountered ‘Time’ and our two agents bore some really tasty fruit! Dear David and Susie were the perfect leads, and the recording sessions were amongst the happiest I ever had at Big Finish. Creative times indeed. ‘Roll back time, Sapphire…’” 
The four-part stories in each series are: 
Series One: 
The Passenger by Steve Lyons
Daisy Chain by Joseph Lidster 
All Fall Down by David Bishop
The Lighthouse by Nigel Fairs 
Dead Man Walking by Nigel Fairs (based on a story by John Ainsworth) 
Series Two: 
The School by Simon Guerrier
The Surest Poison by Richard Dinnick
Water Like a Stone by Nigel Fairs
Cruel Immortality by Nigel Fairs 
Perfect Day by Steve Lyons
The Mystery of the Missing Hour by Joseph Lidster
Series Three: 
Second Sight by Nigel Fairs
Remember Me by John Dorney
Zero by Steve Lyons 
Wall of Darkness by Nigel Fairs 
All three series are available exclusively here. Series One is available for just £19.99, Series Two for £24.99, and Series Three for £19.99. 
All the above prices include the special pre-order discount and are subject to change after general release.
-- Well bugger me!
I wonder if this means I've got access to the downloads now, since I bought the CDs way back when?
*goes to check* No, huh. Guess I'll go on using the rips of the CDs then!

During the time that sitcom writer Joanna Lee was living in the Hollywood Tower, she used to see Aldous Huxley across the street in the 101 Coffee Shop, on the groundfloor of the Hollywood Franklin Hotel.

“But here I am in July, and why am I thinking about Christmas pudding? Probably because we always pine for what we do not have. The winter seems cozy and romantic in the hell of summer, but hot beaches and sunlight are what we yearn for all winter.”  ― Joanna Franklin Bell, Take a Load Off, Mona Jamborski
