Blow Them At The Moon...

Soooo, fellow fans of the original "Queer As Folk" - I have prezzies for you!!! :) :) :)

I know a number of us have speculated, written stories and wondered for years over the possibilities of just what happened after QAF2 - "All the stories are true," right? Welllll, I have the goods on what the "official" line would have been if the series "The Misfits" would have been produced. The show was meant to be an off-shoot of QAF, focusing on Hazel and Alexander - with cameos by folks from QAF, such as Vince.

Vince? Oh yes, Vince... Why's that important? Because we would have gotten to find out things about his character that we never would have guessed at while watching QAF. And we would have seen how his adventures with Stuart after QAF shaped him into a rather complex character. A dangerous mystery. Sound intriguing?

Want to know more about what happened to Stuart and Vince? What cities they traveled to? Want to know how Vince earned money after QAF - a LOT of it apparently? These and other tidbits are now gifted to us in the book "T Is For Television: The Small Screen Adventures of Russell T Davies". (The authors of the book used the Misfit scripts as sources for the information given, btw.)

If you are a QAF fan - have a look-see:

Blogger Chig is doing a week long look back at Queer As Folk, in celebration of the 10th Anniversary (TODAY!!!) of the original airing in the UK.

http://chig.blogspot.com/

I encourage you all to go have a read - he's reposted his Gay Times cover story from 10 year ago - added in with tidbits from behind the scenes as he attending the filming!

He's got great plans to share more goodies as the week progresses - so remember - check back!!!

"Coming later this week:

Why QAF was responsible for Chig never drinking a certain brand of lager ever again.
Who was responsible for Chig being told off on set.
The strange story of the Nivea hand creme (or was it)?
How QAF led to Chig being treated to a meal by the Daily Mail. (Yikes!)
How QAF saw Chig get a boyfriend. Yes, really! Chig has had a boyfriend!
The wild QAF party which led to naughties in a London hotel, on a train and in Chig's house with a member of the QAF cast. On second thoughts, we'll leave that bit out."

As I was reminded while reading this blog entry at "World of Chig" - about Craig's new role on Corrie St:

Monday, Feb 23rd - is the TENTH!!! anniversary of the airing of the original "Queer As Folk"....

*THUD* (I challenge you NOT to hear Vince's reaction in your ear - "Oh My God"



Soooo, S/V fans and QAF fans alike - if you are STILL out there...lol - why not give us a hello and share what the show and the characters have meant to you!

It would do us allllll good, I think. So give us a wave...

Pretty please!!! Stuart and Vince kisses to you if you do!!!

So uhmm...lol - apparently I had the urge to hit double digits!

Hence - Vid #10!!! And keeping with the theme of vid 9 - it's for UK Queer As Folk!!!

Or namely, Stuart Alan Jones - a "Dedicated Follower Of Fashion" -



Title: "Dedicated Follower Of Fashion"
Song: The Kinks
Vidder: Xof
Focus: Stuart Alan Jones from UK QAF
Star: Aidan Gillen!!!
Rating: PG
Format: .wmv
Length: 4:03 mins
File Size: 19.1 MB

Theme: A walk through this gay man's closet...lol. How many outfits can you count??? And don't forget his B-day suit!

Editor's Note: If ever a vid was dictated by a song, this is the one! It's extremely rare to hear a song once, and see EVERYTHING just gel in your head - scenes to lyrics, etc. I heard this song ages ago, and KNEW it was going to be one of the first I would use to vid QafUk. It's fun, irreverent, and gave me the opportunity to do a fashion show for one heck of a sharply dressed man...lol. Again - the vid features footage from the deleted scenes found on the Definitive DVD Collection of QAF - can you spot what's new??? lol...

Cover Art: I actually liked this suit a lot - and since we don't see much of it in the show, I thought I'd feature it for the cover. Ohhh, and if you want to see SAJ looking beautiful in ... well, nothing at all - take a look at this bonus piece of "art" I managed to clip from the vid, look behind the cut: ( Read more... )

Song Choice - The song makes this a Stuart POV vid - and it seems like a spoof on itself...lol - if you'd like a closer look at the lyrics, they can be found HERE.

Here are links for downloading the vid:
