Is it true that the recent West End deformity has gotten less bulky?

I believe the sculpt itself is the same, but that it depends on the makeup artst and/or head of costume how pronounced and (pun intended) fleshed out it is. For example, there is quite a difference between the official photos of Killian Donnelly and Jon Robyns - both from the West End revival:

Killian Donnelly's deformity makeup was more red in the "wounded" area and toned out towards his skin. This was pretty much the same style as seen before Covid closed the production.

Jon Robyn's deformity makeup was more beige in the "wounded" area, and with white contours. But to my eye the sculpt itself looks rather similar. As a comparison, here's Ben Forster from before the production closed down:

It is however true that the makeup on the "good " side is much duller today than in the past. The "good" side used to be accentuated, with a defined or lifted eyebrow, noticeable eye-makeup and contoured chins. Sometimes also quite red lipstick. The whole face was also usually pancaked. Here's James Paterson in the original West End production:

John Owen-Jones in 2003, when they really accentuated the eye and eyebrow:

And West End's next-last original Phantom, Tim Howar:

As a contrast, Killian Donnelly, the first Phantom in the revival:

And Jon Robyns, who left just a few days ago:

I mean, it is a choice, and it does make the "good" side prettier for photos. Still... maybe I'm just used to the good ol' days, but I do think the current look is too discrete for stagewear. I wish they'd funk and contour it up just a tiny bit. But the whole production has this "more natural" philosophy in both makeup and wigs, so I'm guess the new look is there to stay.

[ID: The inside cover of the cassette for Bleed Out by the Mountain Goats, which has white text over a grainy picture of a building. Big blue words at the top read "Out in the Streets". Body text reads:

"the mood was unstable so we found a place in the woods. On safer days, we're almost always at the clubhouse, but these were weird times, so it was good to gather and break bread. Everybody seemed to have ducked the radar during the long raids: Rochester Pete with his whitewalls and his mutton chops, Money Matt immaculate as usual, the Harleysville kid somehow looking even better than he otherwise does, and me, blinking my eyes against the daylight. A little dirty. Something raw inside me, something brittle that didn't want to break.

Alicia the Architect pulled up in her pickup with a dog riding shotgun and an arsenal of inconspicuously housed weapons in the bed. In those cardboard-and-canvas cases lay the story of our week ahead: big scores, wild times. Right behind her was the fixer, the one they call Young Shalini, fresh talent from the mid-south, sharp as tacks, no arrests and no convictions. They say it takes a lifetime to learn how to read a rifle sight, but Young Shalini does not miss.

I'd put together the plans for the caper quickly, over the course of a month in December. I used to work this fast all the time, back in the early days; muscle memory brought it all back to me now. I studied the soldiers who'd gone before me, and I memorized their moves. We spent about half a day at the range, sizing up targets, and then we took our work out into the field: six of us, stir-crazy, starved for action, finally free to show some aces to a world that had been dealing us hard hand after hard hand for almost a year; and most noir tales like these are fantasy, but for four friends who in normal times get to play music together practically every month and who'd been forced into hiding by the circumstances of the Year of Our Lord 2020, this was the real thing. Late meals shared around a common table. Tales from solitary to share. Stacking our chips in secret, rolling dice until dawn. A few blazing muzzles in the wintry night. Made ready by circumstances for whatever came next, but not yet ready to bleed out." End ID]

That moment when your super-powered stalker is creeping lovingly watching you go about your day in your house from the sky. Your Pouty Princess™ senses start tingling, and you set the speaker to blast Rockwells 1984 Somebody's Watching Me so a certain voyeur can know they aren't as slick as they think they are.

This pic makes me think of an AU where Kreese and Silver are Jessica’s gay adopted dads but also inexplicably Jessica somehow has turned out Completely Normal even though these guys^ are her parents. Daniel is deeply confused by this and so am I

I find it funny how at the end of season 2 Sarah is saying till death do us part but she's again going to have something with Topper makes what her and JB have meaningless don't you think?

Yeah, I'm not sure what's going on there to be honest. It feels like the whole John B/Sarah/Topper storyline has been beaten into the ground at this point. We're all tired of it so I'm hoping that it's not what we're thinking it is, and there's something else going on there - is Sarah using him for information or something?

I don't think it makes the Jarah B relationship meaningless, but the constant break up/make up does get a bit tiring. But! If that's the path they're taking for them, I hope that means that once Jiara gets together, they're going to be the solid couple that doesn't have a bunch of extra drama. JIARA RIDE OR DIE!!!

I really don't know what the whole Topper arc could be, but honestly if Sarah runs back to him again after breaking things off with John B again, I feel like it just makes her look bad. I do like Sarah's character, so I hope that they don't do that to her.

Either way, we're going to find out on Thursday - 3 MORE DAYS!!!!

Serial Killers (2004) - Episode 3 'Big Hairy Balls'

Alan tries to get Andrew to walk him through how he felt filming a certain scene, and eventually the poor dear catches on and gives a very honest answer haha.

Bonus:

Pauline: So, all the men on this show, Alan, should be monobrow Neanderthals dragging their women back to their cave for a good singing to? Simone: I'd watch. Pauline: You stay out of this. Alan: No, not all of them! Just one! Just one real man. Who leaves the toilet seat up. And then- says to his woman 'No, I wasn't listening to what you were saying, you got a problem with that? Oh and while you're at it, find my car keys!' Just one REAL MAN! You know instead of the- the sorry ass namby pamby pussy-whipped collection of panty wasters we've got at the moment!
