RIP Michael Jayston (29.10.1935 - 5.2.2024)
"Well, I played a lot of interesting people. I was Siegfried Sassoon in ‘Mad Jack’, and played Beethoven and Rochester in Jane Eyre amongst others. When I did Equus in 1976, a critic described my work on television as ‘odd bits of TV’, but these are no small parts for an actor."

is cromwell the kind of guy to have suits of very similar yet slightly shifting hue and wear them in colour order. you think he just has the same colour suit but. like a month ago it was Not that shade, but he's barely in pictures and it's probably just the mandela effect. it loops around to the same colour after a certain point. pinnacle of comedy (to me)
you're 100% right.
charcoal black -> ebony -> black olive -> licorice -> midnight black -> repeat

Why did Henry VIII really have Anne Boleyn executed? Papers held at the British Library show her death was the result of a conspiracy against her amongst Henry’s advisors.
