  • Born and Bred 7 Clive Swift
    Clive Swift Clive Swift is Reverend Brewer “Brewer lives life to the full,” explains Swift.“He knows all about the suffering and sadness in the world, and this makes him all the more determined to enjoy life. He likes a drink or two, follows the horses and dabbles in a bit of gambling, even winning a bob or two on occasion! He’s never married but he’s certainly had a few girlfriends, as he’s a bit of a ladies man. But the Bishop seems to know something about Brewer’s behaviour which is a cause for concern.” Reverend Brewer has seen a lot of life, so whenever anyone is in trouble or has a problem they go to him. “Brewer’s very sympathetic and wants life to be better for everyone. He would have been born towards the end of the 19th century and would have survived two world wars. He’s got lots of memories of the wars and is likely to have served in some capacity.” And he’s a popular resident in the village:“I think the character that Brewer is closest to is Mr Boynton, the shopkeeper.They are similar in age, although Boynton is self-educated whereas Brewer would have gone to university. But I think Brewer is sometimes a little bit hard on Wilf, the station- master, and in return Wilf doesn’t trust Brewer Clive Swift when they’re playing cards!

There is not a new season to • share with you this month, which reminds me of a call I • took from a viewer recently. The viewer was disappointed by the news that recent series on Masterpiece would not be returning for a second season, with Beecham House being another example of this scenario. PBS and Masterpiece sign on to series in development early on. This mostly out of necessity because of the highly competi- tive market to acquire quality dramas and mysteries. In most cases, these series premiere across the pond ahead of the planned broadcast here. This month on Masterpiece we welcome a remake. All Creatures Great and Small begins January 10. The series is based on the books of James Alfred Wight, published under the pen name James Herriot. This is not the first JAN. 10 • 9pm adaptation that has broadcast on WITF.

  • Telling the True Story
    Bachelor Thesis Telling The True Story Queerbaiting, representation, and fan resistance in the BBC Sherlock fandom Suzanne Frenk 613191 Algemene Cultuurwetenschappen (Culture Studies) School of Humanities Tilburg University Supervisor: Dr. P. K. Varis Second Reader: Dr. I. E. L. Maly August 18, 2017 Synopsis In this thesis, I follow an online community on Tumblr revolving around a self- proclaimed conspiracy theory called TJLC. This group is part of the broader community of fans of the BBC TV show Sherlock, and is focused on ‘The Johnlock Conspiracy’: the belief that the two main characters of the show, John and Sherlock, are bisexual and gay, respectively, and will ultimately end up as a romantic couple, which would make Sherlock a mainstream TV show with explicit and positive LGBTQIA+ representation. This visibility is especially important to LGBTQIA+ individuals within the TJLC community, who want to see their identities more often and more accurately represented on television. The fact that the creators of Sherlock, as well as several of the actors in the show, are either part of the LGBTQIA+ community themselves or known supporters, works to further strengthen TJLC’ers’ trust in the inevitable unfolding of the story into a romantic plot. The fact that the TJLC community is based on a conspiracy theory not only makes it a remarkable example of fan culture, but has also led to many close readings of the show and its characters – from the textual level to symbolism to the musical score – on a level that can often be seen as close to academic. These pieces of so-called ‘meta’ have led to many predictions about the direction of the show, such as the strong belief that ‘Johnlock’ would become real in season four of the series.

By the end you feel both emotionally drained and unexpectedly elated — the classic hallmark of a great production.” - The Daily Telegraph “To say visionary director Ivo van Hove’s production is the best show in the West End is like saying Stonehenge is the current best rock arrangement in Wiltshire; it almost feels silly to compare this pure, primal, colossal thing with anything else on the West End. A guileless granite pillar of muscle and instinct, Mark Strong’s stupendous Eddie is a force of nature.” - Time Out “Intense and adventurous.

  • BRIEFING 'Assessment of Ten Years of Swedish and Dutch Policies on Prostitution' the Netherlands1
    BRIEFING ‘Assessment of ten years of Swedish and Dutch policies on prostitution’ August 2012 The Netherlands1 In 1 October 2000, the Netherlands lifted the ban on brothels of 1911. Since then, several studies from the Scientific Research and Documentation Centre of the Ministry of Justice (WODC) and from the national police force (KLPD) have studied the impact of the decriminalization of procuring in the Netherlands. 1- The situation of persons in prostitution has worsened. The study ‘Daalder’2 carried out for the Ministry of Justice unveils that: • “There has been no significant improvement of the situation of persons in prostitution”. • “The prostitutes’ emotional well-being is now lower than in 2001 on all measured aspects”. • “The use of sedatives has increased”. • Options for leaving the industry were in high demand, while only 6% of municipalities offer assistance. 2- 50% to 90% of the women in licensed prostitution “work involuntarily”. These data were unveiled in 2008 by the national police force (KLPD) in a study on the sector of legalized prostitution entitled “Keeping up appearances”.3 In this study, the Dutch national police force gives a very worrying assessment of the law decriminalizing procuring. Direct cause of the study is the Sneep-case, where two Turkish-German procurers, together with 30 accomplices, were condemned for exploitation of and violence against more than 100 women in the Netherlands, in Germany and in Belgium. What is striking is that all the women, who have been exploited with extreme violence in the Netherlands, were in the legal, licensed, taxpaying and State sanctioned brothels. In Amsterdam, according to the national police, it is estimated that there are 8000 women in window prostitution; at least 4000 of them would then be exploited and abused every year.

    Brainy is the New Sexy: Masculinity in Sherlock Holmes Ginny Walrecht S1908987 17th of November 2017 MA Literary Studies University of Leiden Supervisor: Prof. dr. P. T. M. G. Liebregts Second Reader: Dr. M. S. Newton Dedication I would like to thank my supervisor Dr Peter Liebregts for all the support and guidance during the writing process. This thesis would not have come together the way that it has without it. I would also like to thank Dr Katy Mullin for the inspiration for this thesis. Abstract This thesis focuses on the representation of masculinity in the Sherlock Holmes character, both in the original stories written by Arthur Conan Doyle in the late 19th and early 20th centuries as well as in the modern BBC interpretation which first aired in 2010. It employs a Foucauldian notion of gender, which sees masculinity as a socially constructed concept and as such perceptible to change. The Sherlock Holmes stories were written over a forty-year time period. Two major historical events from this period could be said to have influenced the definition of masculinity, namely the Oscar Wilde trials and the First World War. Furthermore, Joseph Kestner has argued that Conan Doyle’s Holmes stories aimed to promote an ideal form of masculinity, which led us to consider the representation of Victorian masculinity in the Holmes character. Moreover, this thesis analyses the adaptation of Victorian Holmes in BBC’s Sherlock. Having defined Victorian and twenty-first-century masculinity, we will see that Conan Doyle’s Holmes aligns with numerous Victorian traits that were seen as masculine, and is portrayed as the ideal man.
