Jack, over the phone: Okay, Miss Fisher, the worst thing you can do in this situation is take matters into your own hands.

Phryne: Got it!

Phryne: *disconnects the call*

Phryne, to Dot and Jane: We’re gonna have to take matters into our own hands.

Lin Chung: What do I get?

Phryne:A night of fashion, mischief, mayhem, and possible death.

Lin Chung: Not sure about the last one.

Phryne: It won’t be your death.

Lin Chung: Let me get my coat.

It’s all about contrast… If you have someone buttoned up & put in a three piece suit plus overcoat for about 33 episodes that character would appear practically naked when one button comes undone… Just generally speaking…

god can you believe that miss fisher’s murder mysteries really went & hired a woman in her late forties to play a woman who in the books is in her late twenties ???

they took one look at essie davis in all her devastatingly beautiful splendour, with her bright eyes & laughter lines & apple cheekbones & freckled shoulders & charming smile & said fuck it phryne fisher is now a forty-something woman in her goddamn prime who has driven ambulances in the trenches & flown planes & scaled mountains & who is irresistably gorgeous & knows it ???

it honestly means so much to me that they did that. you see so many tiresome instances of young women being cast as older women & they just turned that on its head & the show is all the better for it. they don’t try to make her look younger, they don’t smooth out or cover up her laughter lines or the crinkles around her eyes or the creases when she turns her head or her upper arms or the freckles on her hands. they just let her be & she is so beautiful.

this is what happens when you let women run a show.

OMG I also exploded when I saw dpshimmyshimmyandstoplookingup‘s thoughts on the possibilities of The Doctor being a woman. The most brilliant idea EVERRR!!! I don’t know if my heart can take it!! Essie Davis would make a KILLER Doctor!

And yes, desiskipper, you should DEFINITELY watch Dr. Who!!
