Fleabag: Question 1: It’s an interesting thing how some characters are referred to by actual names such as Claire, Harry and the horrendous piece of shit that is Martin and some are not given any names such as Godmother, the Priest and Bank Manager. Do you feel that there is some special significance to that or do you feel it’s nothing more than a fun little narrative device? Question 2: It seems a prominent reason Fleabag and to a certain extent Claire is at odds with their dad is due to his relationship with Godmother. Do you feel it is explicitly because of Godmother herself and the pure evil that she is (even if I can’t hate her due to the sheer perfection that is Olivia Colman) or is it simply the idea that, in their eyes their Dad has essentially replaced their mother? The Hobbit trilogy: The love triangle of Tauriel/Kili/Legolas was one of the more controversial and disliked elements of the trilogy. Personally I was in a middle ground regarding it, didn’t particularly love it yet I was not particularly against it either. You really gravitated towards it so I want to know what about it really struck a chord with you that you became invested in the love triangle? General movie question: Based on your reactions to The Hobbit and also Sherlock it seems a safe bet to say that you’re a big Martin Freeman fan. It therefore makes me curious as to whether or not you’ve seen the film adaptation of The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy which stars Martin Freeman and if you have not seen it would you be interested in seeing it for a possible future reaction or just in your own off time?

Fleabag: Just wanted to note I'm so glad you decided to pick this show to react to during this weird TV hiatus. I knew you'd gravitate toward it and it was so great to watch your reactions every week and to rewatch the show with your insights, I'm glad you enjoyed it!! :) 1) Fleabag starts this season by saying "this is a love story". What do you think about the way that season 2 built on top of the already-established themes of sex and loneliness that were explored on in season 1, to season 2 slightly shifting the main focus to being more concentrated on love and relationships? And not only exploring Fleabag in a new romantic relationship, but specifically with a priest, which forces her to directly challenge questions of celibacy 2) What was your perspective on the Priest being able to perceive Fleabag's fourth-wall-camera-moments? Do you have an interpretation on the way he could pick up on these intimate moments Fleabag has with us, the audience. And how, before he notices her talking to us, she would keep slipping up and accidentally saying her thoughts out loud instead of privately to us. What did you make of Fleabag's relationship with us/the camera, in general? And the significance of her turning us away at the end of episode 5, and leaving us altogether in the finale? 3) Thoughts on Fleabag's confessional moment, and the Priest's response to it? Earlier in the season, Fleabag also confesses some truths in therapy but was just wanting the therapist to tell her what to do or think, only to be told she already knew what she was going to do. Which is fine enough but Fleabag clearly needed something more, which she finds in the Priest's confessional. How do you feel the confession (and what followed) impacted the remainder of their bond and relationship? 4) What do you think about the resolution of the Priest and Fleabag's relationship. In your episode 5 discussion you mentioned that you were conflicted about them sleeping together and getting closer. Do you think it's for the best that they part ways, despite both admitting love for each other? 5) What were your thoughts on the Dad's insight of "you know how to love better than the rest of us, that's why you find it all so painful", do you think that's an accurate reflection of Fleabag's relationship life (not only romantically, but also such as her relationship with her mother or Boo), and how it compares to the relationships that surround her in her life (her father and the godmother, Claire and Martin, the Priest and God, etc)? Supernatural: I really, really can't wait to see your reactions to this upcoming season. So much to look forward to :) 1) How do you feel about the show exploring Sam moving on from Jess. Well, not necessarily moving on per se but just him processing Jess' death and opening up to the idea of moving forward with his life in a romantic way without feeling weighed down with grief. And dean's encouragement to try and help him go through that. 2) What did you make of John's commitment to hunting the yellow-eyed demon and his priorities over his own life/parental duties. And what did you think of how his character developed in the last few episodes of season 1 + the premiere of season 2, from resisting to include his kids in the hunting but eventually getting the chance to connect more. And where he may not have been a great father to the boys because of his obsession with the demon, but still ultimately choosing to give his life to save his son without hesitation. How do you think about how John left his relationship with Sam, knowing he was about to die, yet not giving him a proper goodbye or resolution/conversation. Do you think John was able to make up for some of his life's mistakes in his final sacrificial actions?

Regarding Fleabag - "This is a love story" - you said earlier you thought you know knew who the love story was about - please elaborate. Secondly, Did you catch the role-reversal elements in the attic scene? They're discussing Fleabag's mother again, but this time dad is mentioning the bits of FBs personality he doesn't like as opposed to the bits of her mothers personality he didn't like - but these were the bits that he loved about them both. The last live is the same, but now delivered by fleabag. Step-mother's comment that the statue 'is where it belongs, in this house', made me wonder about her attitude toward fleabag's mother and that it might not be as hostile as we might expect. Any thoughts on that? Finally, on the question about dad's health - I think you mostly covered that in your full reaction comments - just wondering if you had any other comments or thoughts? I thought the stepmother's remark and father's fragility confirmed it for me, even if its never said explicitly. Great performance by Bill Paterson.
