  1. Colour-blind casting is about the only novelty left to try in the endless remakes of the Arthurian Legends.

    1. I'd rather call it history blind than colour blind. I mean the way they're doing we could be played by Whoopie Goldberg, Debs!

  2. A curse is not a light matter. Three political figures (a palestinian, Yasser Arafat, president of the PLO) and two israeli PM, Yzhak Rabin and Ariel Sharon) died as a result of being cursed by extremists in a ceremony called Pulsa deNura. Arafat was poisoned, Rabin was shot, Sharon got a massive stroke whch left him in a state of vegetation; he never regained consciousness.

    1. That is nasty, indeed. There is something in strong negative energy being focused onto a target for sure. Not that I mind most of politicians getting cursed :)

  3. Well, color-blind casting is the hot new PC thing to do. Otherwise some people are going to get their panties in a bunch and we just can't have that now, can we?

    1. Indeed, they've put people of colour in Poldark now too, even based the whole final season around it, even though there was not a sign of it for years in the series.

  4. They are trying to erase European culture. They will soon reap what they have sewn.

  6. If the justification of casting a black actor is inclusion then
    1. Why only black actor? Why not Chinese/Korean
    2. For inclusion purpose why BBC don't produce a series on Winston Churchill played by black actor

    1. Given how they cast actors, I'm afraid they'd cast Woopie Goldberg to play me in a biopic about my life... it doesn't matter that she is female and black... it wouldn't matter to them :)
