Man that Christmas Special ( http://eksdy.tumblr.com/post/135351321000/london-spy-episode-6 ) was great! I decided to draw one of my favorite scenes. This is from the bit where Alex and Danny are both over at Pavel’s for his annual Christmas Party- wearing fairly awful x-mas jumpers of course (except Pavel, but Pavel never wears anything but t-shirts- it’s part of his charm).
Danny has had his jumper forever- so long that the seams have started ripping open a bit. Sara is wearing some kind of weird fitted jumper with bells attached- every time she moves the bells jingle and she’s really regretting wearing it now. Alex did not have anything festive to wear so Danny took him shopping. He bought this jumper with a kitten on it because Danny thought it was cute.
Happy Christmas Eve fellow London Spies!

Happy London Spy: Series 2, Episode 1
7 December 2015
Saturday.
Danny and Alex spend the day perusing travel guides at Daunt Books in Marylebone and then feed the ducks in Regent’s Park. Danny gets bitten by a goose. Alex is concerned and fusses, but Danny laughs it off. Back at Danny’s place, Alex codes a hostile goose detection algorithm while Danny makes a stir fry. They have a bit of wine then dose off on the sofa whilst watching the 1972 sci fi classic “Solaris”. They wake up, make out for a bit, then go to bed.
Episode ends.

We learn that Danny can make a mean Bloody Mary.

Danny and Alex settling into new flat in Kentish Town. After much pleading from Danny, they adopt a cat, who takes a shine to cat-dubious Alex and sheds extensively on his nice clothes.

After a few glasses of Scottie’s excellent Bordeaux, Alex gets very excited about fossils.

THE FOLLOWING EXTENDED EPISODE SYNOPSIS OF
“HAPPY LONDON SPY: CHRISTMAS IS RUINED?”
7 December 2015

Later that week, Alex distressed as Danny plans to host a wacky Christmas jumper party. Meanwhile Danny is suspicious that Alex won’t reveal the purpose of the countless Maplin boxes http://www.maplin.co.uk/p/hammond-waterproof-extruded-aluminium-enclosure-80x59x309mm-n29hg arriving in the flat. Alex begins mysterious drilling and wiring near the terrace.
Mid-December, Christmas party. Danny and Cypher the Cat wearing matching reindeer antlers, Alex unhappy in a “Bah Humbug” jumper. Sara, Pavel and Magda the Magician arrive with treats. Marcus awkwardly brings Ferrero Rocher and has forgotten his festive wear. Alex and Marcus argue about the flawed time travel science in last year’s Doctor Who Christmas Special. Magda insists on playing Jenga with Danny using only her toes.
Scottie arrives with a dashing man in late 40s. A toast to his new-found happiness.
Amidst the cheer, Cypher the Cat destroys the Christmas tree.
Much later that night, all guests gone. Danny drunkenly singing carols and picking up rest of felled Christmas tree. Alex silently fiddling with rows of plugs and switches.
Mounted projectors flicker to life. A bank of transparent screens descends over the terrace.
An immersive projection of gently falling snow engulfs the flat and blankets their view of the night city.
Danny cries.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fandom
"Fandom is a term used to refer to a subculture composed of fans characterized by a feeling of empathy and camaraderie with others who share a common interest. Fans typically are interested in even minor details of the object(s) of their fandom and spend a significant portion of their time and energy involved with their interest, often as a part of a social network with particular practices (a fandom); this is what differentiates "fannish" (fandom-affiliated) fans from those with only a casual interest.
A fandom can grow around any area of human interest or activity. The subject of fan interest can be narrowly defined, focused on something like an individual celebrity, or more widely defined, encompassing entire hobbies, genres or fashions. While it is now used to apply to groups of people fascinated with any subject, the term has its roots in those with an enthusiastic appreciation for sports. Merriam-Webster's dictionary traces the usage of the term back as far as 1903.[1] It is formed of the word fan plus the suffix -dom (as in kingdom).
Fandom as a term can also be used in a broad sense to refer to the interconnected social networks of individual fandoms, many of which overlap."
(Does this sound like some people we know?) ::) :laugh:
