hug! that! captain!

So rude they gave us Cap’s first name but not his last name. James feels so weird and personal but if it was Captain James [surname] it would feel a lot better

Ghosts has been impeccable with the Thomas lore drops my god

Season 1: 'I have (possibly one-sided/imagined) beef with Lord Byron'

Season 2: 'My cousin betrayed me to my death so he could marry the girl I loved.'

Season 3: 'I had a wild regency gap year, hated it and got the shits in Venice'

Season 4: 'It was the same with opium 😔'

Season 5: 'I'm Scottish 😊🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿'

Woke up to say the reason the Captain was so touched by Pat giving him a medal in series 3 was because it was the first medal he actually earned......

[herestoburiedsecrets]

no but it means so much to me that kitty’s death was a complete accident. that no one killed her. that nothing was done maliciously. that she died happy and peacefully in her sleep. that she finally got the apology from her sister that she deserved. it means so much that this character who has only ever talked about her life positively and optimistically didn’t die of poisoning or murder but died completely correct in her assumptions that no one in her life would hurt her on purpose. and the fact that she can still look back on her death and not think of it as a tragedy but as lucky. and her silly spiderman antics i’m crying and throwing up

Its genuinely so interesting that sequence of events that lead to the Captain's death started with him stealing someone else's medal ribbon. There's something so intentional about him putting on these medals as a way of masquerading as someone who fits in at the celebration so he could see Havers again. Its almost like how he borrows this military persona in order to hide all the struggles he has with his sexuality in order to fit in - but everyone sees through it.

The medals are a perfect abstraction of the identity that the Captain has constructed for himself since the war began, and over the years as he becomes more comfortable with showing parts of himself he finally becomes comfortable enough to tell the others that all this time the medals that everyone had believed were his were just another thing he'd borrowed - another thing that wasn't truly his.

Ghosts Series 5 Update!

A Christmassy surprise!

This morning unexpectedly the writers all confirmed the same thing (unless you are Jim Howick) ..

We are getting a Christmas Special!!

Which has indeed a shock to the fandom as we thought it was ending at just Series 5

If you have been here a while you will know previously when they were doing Yonderland they ended it on a Christmas Special! Seems like they are pulling the same trick twice.

Happy Ghostsmas 👻🤍

The balloons go on for quite a while

today on 'bbc ghosts microexpressions': i only noticed today how when Pat shows his thumb trick, just before Robin starts screaming, the Captain does this half-smile and raises his eyebrows politely and sort of approvingly

absolutely devastating news delivered on the Garfield telephone there

the old version for comparison's sake

[herestoburiedsecrets]

i think they should let him wear funky shirts. it's what he deserves

I now use the phrase Ben Hargreevesed it whenever this happens.
