Would only really work if you never wanted to visit the restaurant again.

Depends on the restaurant- people act differently between say a 3 star Michelin restaurant and a fancy burger place.

So you are saying a meat stock can add umami to a dish??? Wow...

I’m hoping it’s the mentally unhinged Captain Jack from The Children Of Earth...

The issue I have with it being “unrealistic” is at no point do you see either character reading a BDSM behavior manual, or consulting BDSM websites for Codes of Conduct...

In Denmark, “Salt bae” translates to “salt shit”. This makes me happy.

Exactly- it was a nod and a wink to Shearsmith and Pemberton

I think SHAME is getting off on it

As I said previously, this series would have been much better set up as a 3 parter covering the first 2 episodes, and end on the “it’s the current century” cliffhanger; and hthen spend the second series fleshing out this episode. A least then we might care something for Lucy and nu Harker.

Especially as they had mercenaries...

I think the first series should have comprised of the first two episodes in hour long format, and finished on the cliff-hanger at the end of this episode. That would have given them the whole of series 2 to flesh out the “modern day Dracula” story.

I see you missed the Inside No. 9 gag, which given that Gatiss is one of the co-writers, was obviously intended.

It feels more like the Sarah Jane Adventures rather than Doctor Who. The writing and dialogue have got a lot more simplistic.

The second best Master after Roger Delgado.

I think Chibnall blew his load too early wheeling the Master out on the first episode.

And a hilarious Inside No. 9 ref too. And look out for the bit where Dracula outs himself as a Crowded House fan.

Really enjoying the adaptation, and the twist at the end of episode 2 was cool (though a little expected). Claes Band and Holly Wells are knocking it out of the park.

It’s a regular shandy- a rock shandy is club orange mixed with club lemon.

I found the best way to survive at beer fests is to volunteer behind the bars. As a bonus you get to stay after close and hang out with the brewers.

Fun fact: The actor that played Father Todd Unctuous is currently on the run from the police in Ireland...
