Why, oh why can't I find any clips from House of Cards on You Tube, leaving me unable to demonstrate to an American friend why the moment in the Hogfather film where Death says 'You might think that, but I couldn't possibly comment' is, while admittedly gratuitous and borderline OOC, screamingly funny?

Except it's not entirely: like many other people on my flist, I was sad to hear that Ian Richardson had died. A very fine actor, and infinitely watchable in whatever he was doing. This, of course, is from what was perhaps his most famous role. I am mildly disturbed by the fact that I know people who regard FU as role models, but it's a tribute to Richardson's charisma...

ETA: The Scotsman - as an Edinburgh based paper - has quite a nice article on I.R., albeit slightly spoiled by a local councillor seizing the chance for shamless self-promotion! It's here: http://heritage.scotsman.com/news.cfm?id=216412007
