I alone can see through the media bias.

I'm also stupid on a scale that can only be measured in Reddits.

I knew that downton abbey wasn't going to be the show for me the moment it became the bizarre centrepiece of ousted conservative prime minister tony abbott's attempts to humanize himself. Reported on every news network in australia for a week: tony abbott reveals love of watching downton abbey with his wife, lizard person rumours currently unconfirmed.

TBF back then it was harder to tell when someone was being gay because men held hands and hung out naked and stuff in a non sexual/romantic context.

They don't actually ever show this poo poo in historical dramas though cause people would get confused and uncomfortable viewing gender relations without a modern lens

Ogres are like onions
I was watchin the Graham Norton show and Maggie Smith was on it. He asked if she'd seen Downton Abbey and she paused for a bit before saying '...I have the box set'.

She was a classy lady on that show.

The Americans (if you count Soviet spies in the early 80's as historical)
Peaky Blinders (gypsy mans shoot other gangsters)
Game of Thrones (a comedy set in Ancient Egypt)

Shooting and Fucking
are the same thing!

Famous historical gays:
-Leonardo da Vinci
-Michelangelo
-Alexander the Great
-Abraham Lincoln
-Cary Grant
-Liberace
-James Buchanan
-Eleanor Roosevelt
-John Waters

There should be a League of Extraordinary Gentlemen style show where they all fight crime.

Turks are basically Greeks and Greeks are basically Turks though.

In "The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie" she's really into Mussolini. That's a good, weird historical movie. And stars Maggie Smith. She's the one into Mussolini in it.
