One thing about Castle is that they do a serial killer plot line SO WELL. In the way that they don’t overdo those episodes, and cram like 7 into a season, so you’re like “God can’t they just catch this guy already!” (Pelant on Bones, Mr. Scratch on Criminal Minds, etc)
They’re so good at like one or MAYBE two 3XK episodes a season so every time you’re like “OH MY GOD HE’S BACK!!” And with Beckett’s mom they still manage to keep it fresh even after so long because they don’t spent so long on it every season.
EMMA: It's just that I, uhm... want something more. I want to spend some part of my life as me. Whoever that is. Not just as someone's, I don't know, daughter, or wife, or mother. I want to... I want to stop feeling like...
SAM: A non-person.
EMMA: Yeah. A non-person.

Good Lord? Starmer's gofer Evans is lined up for a peerage
Our political editor, WALTER CRONXITE, delves through some silly season speculation to discover that one of Alison Butler’s exes could soon be heading for the red benches
Nice drop of red: David Evans
David Evans, the former Croydon business owner who was an aide to Tony Blair and is now the Labour Party’s General Secretary, is being lined for a peerage along with left-leaning celebs Gary Lineker…

ALRIGHT. I had time to kill waiting for an appointment so I have dug through countless pages on the Julia Quinn wiki, the Bridgerton wiki and used a ss from Julia’s fb to compile the most comprehensive list of as many characters as possibles birthdays and middle names. No point in keeping it to myself let’s go.
Canon (probably) Bridgerton biographical info:
Middle names
This is the birth name of everyone I could find a middle name for. Scratching at the walls for Julia Quinn to tell us the children’s middle names (though I have headcanons)
Violet Elizabeth Ledger
Simon Arthur Henry Fitzranulph Basset
Katharine Grace Sheffield (Kathani Sharma’s middle name isn’t confirmed anywhere)
Sophia Maria Beckett
Penelope Anne Featherington
Michael Stuart Stirling
Lucy Margaret Catherine Abernathy
Gareth William St. Clair
Birthdates
This is very messy because some idk, some vary between show and book and some are inconsistent everywhere (Colin I’m looking at you)
This is the fb post in question. (Julia Quinn how dare you tell us you have all their birthday’s written down and not tell us 😭)
Edmund: 1764–1803 (was 38 at death, meaning his birthday was later in the year than May ish when he died) [EDIT: his tombstone in the show says he died in May]
Violet: 11th April 1766 (Aries)
Anthony: 17th September, 1784
Benedict: July/August, 1786
Colin: 2nd March, 1791 (books) 1792 or 1793 or 1794 (tv) [okay, so, both wiki sites say show Colin’s born 1792 or 1793 and it has broken my brain because he is canonically one year older than Daphne and in a copy of the pilot script I found online Daphne is listed as 18 (which fits with her debut) and him 19 but for him to be 19 in the social season he would’ve had to have just turned 19 (bc start of March birthday) and that would make him also born in 1994 but it is clearly not possible for Violet to birth two children in six months furthermore in s2 Benedict outright says that Colin is 21 which would have made him 20 in s1 and thus born 1792; so Colin was born in 1793 or 1792 or maybe even 1794 or inside a fucking void idk anymore but show Colin’s birthday probably isn’t March]
Daphne: August/September, 1792 (books) 1794 or 1795 (tv) [I think 1794 because she is listed as being 18 in a copy of the pilot script I found online, and she is debuting, so she would’ve been 18 turning 19 born in 1794]
Eloise: April (before 22nd) 1796
Francesca: April (before 22nd) 1797
Gregory: January/February (I think February), 1801
Hyacinth: May/June, 1803 [EDIT: Edmund’s tombstone in the show says he died in May, making Hyacinth’s birthday likely in June imo but I actually have no basis for that guess other than vibes]
Kate: 1793 (books) 1788 (tv)
Sophie: 1794
Penelope: 8th April 1796 (Aries)
Simon: 1784
Phillip: 1794
John: 1792
Michael: 1791
Lucy: 1807
Gareth: March 1797

Tried my hand at a non-3x3 moodboard for my vampire self-insert... I do not think this is one of my talents but it was fun. Although I did make myself melancholy by reading too many web weavings. They're so rarely about joy and love!
Anyways my self-insert always carries a copy of Waiting For Godot (Samuel Beckett) and Power Politics (Margaret Atwood) in their bag, and I think that kind of says everything about them that there is to say.
