Mrs Dickens' Family Christmas! (And some other things.)

Hello there! Welcome back to my Sue, Giles and Mel inspired blog. If you were lucky enough to see Mrs Dickens' Family Christmas, then you'll know how great Sue Perkins was at presenting and acting in it. She acted out quite a few of Dickens' stories, and in one of them she even played a boy and a girl - very impressive! She makes documentaries fun. And even baked a cake, which follows on nicely from when she was in The Great British Bake Off. She even wore several outfits in the programme, and she suited all of them, but I think she could make pretty much anything look good.

Here are a few pictures from the show, which I have got from Tumblr, and did not end up taking my own. It's not that I didn't want to, I just haven't got round to it, and thought these pictures would look better anyway.

Here's one where she is on stage, reading from a Dickens book. Plus, she's wearing a Dickens-style waistcoat. It rather suits her, don't you think?

Here's another one.

And another one.

Sue is lying on a bed. She looks like she's lost the love of her life. Oddly, that's something that's happened in her real life.

Sue is going past some shops. Talking about Dickens and/or his wife. Not sure what the shops have to do with it, but wherever those shops are they look nice.

Sue Perkins, acting. She's playing a man here, a cruel man, who doesn't love his wife, kind of like Dickens, when his wife had several kids, and he saw her as a frump.

Here, Sue is reading from Dickens' love letters to his wife. She said something about when her relationships end she's just left with some emails. That's quite sad. Why do most people not write letters anymore? I hate emailing.

 
And to finish up the Mrs Dickens part of my blog post, here's a picture that includes lots of little pictures. The one in the middle, on the right is where she's playing that cruel man's wife. I love the one next to it. And the one in the middle, to the left.

Now, for some random Sue, Mel, and Giles pics.

Funny pic no. 1.

Funny pic no. 2.

Cheerful pic no. 1. (Don't they look lovely in this one? SO young!)

Love the colour combo here. Pink & purple = gorge!

A moving image of Sue and Giles. All I want to say is "Blergh!" because that's what they're saying, isn't it?

Another Dickens one. Nice dressing room!

Thanks for reading. Ss1. xxx
