So yeah, all that talk about his prodigiously-sized todger…was utterly pointless.

Speaking of lit nerdery, great to see old Varney getting a nod tonight.

The fact the vampire has a bevy of all-female 'thralls' is directly suggestive of the 'brides' of the novel. But alas poor van Helsing! Who shall step up now,…

Egad, Branson! What in bally hell is going on with your uniform? A Coldstream officer only needs one Star of the Garter on his red shell jacket, you are certainly not entitled to two!
