Two great minds had the same idea--one with for Danny and a series of different floral crowns for Alex--

Greek mythology AU! Dionysus! Danny and young prince Alex : D
Working on my fix-it comic is so tiring and somehow my head comes out with this when I found out that Ben was in theatre play playing Dionysus. And Ed [Holcroft] is just looks like a beautiful greek sculpture. WOOF!! I AGREE!!
So the AIU goes: Dionysus met Alex when he wanderers the earth and told him that his name is Danny and lured him into the wood using his wine or grape and so on…
I’ll just leave it here and get back to work. o<-<

EDWARD HOLCROFT
IN LONDON JANUARY 2016
By HALEY WEISS
Photography HANS NEUMANN
Published 02/04/16
(EXCERPT)
(....)
WEISS: You were able to work with Charlotte Rampling and Jim Broadbent again in
The Sense of an Ending.
Was filming more comfortable having known them from London Spy?
HOLCROFT: No, it was terrible.
[He is joking. See full interview posted above, page 9 http://bettermost.net/forum/index.php/topic,53215.msg674758.html#msg674758 ]
WEISS: Everything is terrible.
HOLCROFT: Everything is terrible! [laughs] I didn't actually have much to do with them in The Sense of an Ending. I know that they're in it, but my scenes weren't with them. But I did see Jim. Charlotte and Jim are kind of brilliant examples of not only very talented actors, but just such nice people. I can't begin to tell you. They're so unfazed by the industry side of it, they don't really have time for it, which is such an admirable quality when people are really talented. They don't buy in to some of the bullshit that comes with it. They have very quiet lives and they're great.
WEISS: I read that you think it's important to maintain a certain air of mystery as an actor. Can you tell me a little bit about that?
HOLCROFT: I don't think it's a new concept. I should think most actors probably think this, but I know that when I watch actors, the actors who I know least about I buy into more because I can imagine them as the character. It's as simple as that. If you lead a very high profile life—and of course, it's easy to say this, and if you become incredibly famous because of your work some of that is unavoidable—but if you can do as much as you can to keep away from some of that limelight then you just help yourself when it comes to your work. You have a blank canvas, as it were, to work with, rather than people knowing a whole bunch about your life or what you get up to, what you had for breakfast. Everyone is different, and each to their own, as they say, but for me that's what I would like to try and establish.

GLUE_E4TV_2014_JAMES_AND_CAL
:o :o :o :o
Omg, CAN I STAND yet ANOTHER 5 (well, ok, 8 )-part British mini-series starring two Sensitive and Intelligent Boys without one of them getting KILLED in the FIRST FUCKING EPISODE and the remaining episodes trying to Solve the Mystery???
Especially as the Dead Boy left the Live Boy a Meaningful Charm on a Chain to wear on his neck??
It's in the pretty but gritty Berkshire countryside instead of imposing but gritty London town, but whatever!!
"He really did. He really loved me."
AUGH!! SHOOT ME NOW!!!!
It is the 2014 British (E4) TV mini-series called
'GLUE'
It was created and written by Jack Thorne
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glue_(TV_series)
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt3868832/
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Thorne_(writer)
with Billy Howle as James and Tommy Knight as Cal--and Cal is mysteriously killed.
The SURVIVING boy is the same Billy Howle who, in 2016, will play Young Tony,
the younger/earlier self of Jim Broadbent (who is/will be the present day Tony Webster) in
Julian Barnes's The Sense of an Ending.
Billy Howle as James in Glue
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glue_(TV_series)
Reception
Digital Spy described Glue as being "unmissable TV" and also said "this is a whodunnit that will blow your mind". The Independent positively stated that Glue exposes the 'rotting despair of the countryside.'[4]
It premiered in Australia on 7 July 2015 on SBS2.[5]
