R2 Beautiful half-naked cover. Hopefully the photo shoot is equally as slutty.

I feel like it's time for a Joe article/photoshoot... it's been way too long. Also it allows the cast to thirst over him, as is deserved.

Seriously i need something

So nobody is going to the Met gala. Did read yesterday they were having a hard time getting celebs to go, though I doubt that's why none of the cast are going.

I still think if they went the main four should go together for the show. Maybe one year before it's all over. This years theme is kind of against everything HS stands for since Karl was a real bigoted cunt, so not the best year to go anyway.

R7 he and the EIC of High Snobiety followed each other recently so I’m guessing that’s coming at some point.

He and bash make me laugh, they’re so over the top romantic from what little we see of their private lives (the matching jewelry, with one another and their families all the time) and then act like strangers at events and re photoshoots

Unless someone pops up at jfk tomorrow morning, i doubt it. This year is probably not the best time to go since Karl is the theme tbh. Not only that, it would have been so easy to either do Lagerfeld cosplay or show up in a boring suit

Disappointed in Connor for not taking Joe out for a walk or somewhere he can be seen.

I wonder if Joe is actually done filming? The eyebrow slit did look a little more grown in than normal

by Anonymousreply 25April 30, 2023 10:43 PM

R25 I really hope he mostly keeps the Marvel eyebrow grooming. It’s the best they’ve ever looked. Too much to hope for the slit that might be a pain to keep up. It would be funny if he hadn’t reposted Bash’s article because he was making his way back to the real thing.

by Anonymousreply 26April 30, 2023 10:51 PM

R26 Wikipedia says filming was supposed to end late April, but it also says 2023 or 2024 for release so their info is obviously fairly speculative. If Connor came to see a concert with him, help him pack and ship his stuff, and fly back to England with him for bash’s play, it makes some sense but also he is the nicest friend in the world

Things that make you go "hmmmm": Joe was at Taylor Swift's opening night show – the curious part being that it was in Atlanta.

More curious still? Connor Jessup was there. (Kit's back in the UK, and Bash is rehearsing for his show opening next week. I'm assuming Joe's in Atlanta shooting the "WandaVision" spinoff with Agatha. Connor hasn't worked since "Locke & Key" ended – over a year and a half – and yet somehow finagled VIP tickets to a show 1,000 miles away from his home.)

R30 you’re a dickhead. If you think anyone on this thread would for a second not know that Connor and Joe are close friends who met through Bash. Try again, mate

by Anonymousreply 31April 30, 2023 11:19 PM

R30 I am not sure what is curious here

Kit has been back in the UK for a full five months since his South American adventures and Joe has indeed been shooting Agatha in Atlanta since January while for a lot of that time, it is hard to judge exactly how much, Bash has been with him but as you say is now back in the UK with his play opening next week. Joe was also with two producers/writers from Marvel in the VIP tent so it is safe to assume he got a plus one through them and invited Connor as even Bash couldn’t justify a 24 hour inter continental trip days before opening night. So Connor, as an old friend who was actually on the same continent as him, was Joe’s plus one

It seems pretty straightforward the only curious thing is how the hell I know that much information and what I am doing with my life

by Anonymousreply 32April 30, 2023 11:21 PM

R30 don’t want to take you in bad faith so I’ll say I’m not sure if your insinuation is that Joe and Connor are having an affair. If they were, then they would be the dumbest people to ever exist to have an affair in a visible VIP box of a huge concert with Joe’s bosses and to both post it on IG. If your point isn’t that Joe is having an affair and it’s just thAt connor is unemployed, that’s true. And it’s a bummer, hopefully he lines something up soon.

R32 I mean we hang out on here - the amount of bullshit I retain about their lives is hilarious. R30 clearly a troll trying to stir shit up on a forum that knows an embarrassingly comprehensive amount about the intricacies of the friendship group. Waiting for that paywall to hit…

R30 Is that pasted from somewhere? Since literally nobody went hmmmm to see Connor in Atlanta. Connor flew to London to see Joe's play and hung out for months at a time with him and Bash and came to London as well for Bash's birthday. He'll 100% be flying to London soon to see Bash's play too. He just likes them.

Going back to the earlier discussion of potential Geoffrey candidates: I don’t know that he’s invested in the show at all to be honest, the only person from the cast he follows is Joe, and he’s also American. But Neil Patrick Harris has commented on multiple of Joe’s posts. If they’re casting a net out For potential “bigger names” who might come film a few days for Geoff he’s also an option (though I also prefer the earlier suggestion of tennant or ideally someone even more famous).

R37 Ah yes I had forgotten the polyamorous love in

Had a nose around on twitter today for the first time in a while as Joe was trending earlier it all seemed pretty calm and polite. The only thing that was both sad and also provoking because I have unfortunately borne witness to how much hate it has triggered was the shear number of fan girls who must know the reality of their relationships still doggedly fantasising about Joe and Kit going to the European leg of the tour together and cuddling along to the music. It is a sickness that has unfortunately unleashed way too much hate for both Bash and Joe who are simply trying to live gay love’s young dream

R38 Not curious at all if they weren’t so pathetically in love he would be reposting and thirsting all over it. It is the social media equivalent if the bro hug

R30 Taylor's been touring for a month and a half and it wasn't her first night in Atlanta, let alone opening night. They also all invite each other to shit if they're in the same city. Kit took Will and Bash to the Elton dinner and would have taken Joe if he wasn't in the US, Joe took Connor to this because he's the one in North America along with him.

R43 I haven’t seen that, but I did laugh at everyone convinced that Joe was sending fans a message by posting a snippet of lover, since that’s a song they’ve headcanoned for Nick and Charlie. It’s also one of her most famous songs and one of the ones he actually probably knew as a more casual fan, but don’t let reason stand in the way of dreaming, kids

R46 Sadly, I think the twitter fans have a reason for their dementia this time. In an old Joe and Kit interview, Kit said that Lover was probably Nick and Charlie’s song because the fans love to associate it with them. Joe kinda agreed when Kit said that.

R62 Being a cynic I think it unlikely that it was a message of any kind but a Nick Charlie homage would be the least likely as one gets the impression as sweet as Joe seems to be and however much Heartstopper means to him and he recognises most of the normal fans are decent human beings I don’t think he would do a single thing to appease the online fan girls particularly not the ones over invested in Nick and Charlie which too often just bleeds into Joe and Kit shipping. He is not stupid he knows why Bash in particular has been targeted so relentlessly and has shown enough of his unforgiving edges for me to believe he wouldn’t have intentionally throw them a scrap of anything

I also agree that the likelihood of him remembering anything from an interview over a year old is remote. He would have done so many most of which would have never been used and he would not have rewatched what was broadcast at all

R104 I get your point and am sure this guy was pleasant enough to him in person. My flip side is that while Joe is very nice to fans and I’m sure genuinely likes meeting some only them, when fans come ask for pics and to say hi that they loved the show, etc, they are interrupting his time. It seems like he basically had a full meet and greet because he was nice enough to not say no and just enjoy the time hanging out with the agatha showrunners and Connor which would’ve been within his right. If you’re coming to meet him and interrupt his time for free, and then go tag him from a public profile, don’t think hitting the follow button is too hard.

R116 the sad thing is sometimes I’ll see older fans like him stepping in and saying something sane to defend the cast from Twitter teens cancelling them and I think it’s nice the show has sensible fans. Then they’re as nuts as him or as annoying as shay replying to every comment about Joe ever like a middle aged woman, which I think she is, and that feeling goes away

by Anonymousreply 119May 1, 2023 7:08 PM

R119 I’d agree and also add the way the scene was cut was so bad. It cuts off just as they start to kiss which misses 1. The actual kiss 2. A lot of their best nonverbal acting. So even if people all voted after watching each scene and being “fair” I don’t think HS would win. Also the Stranger Things scene was fantastic

by Anonymousreply 120May 1, 2023 7:20 PM

The lack of self-awareness continues.

Also, I agree - they sadly have almost no chance of winning the BAFTA. If it was a worlwide vote then maybe - but something very UK-mainstream (almost certainly Paddington or The Traitors) will win. I don't think enough fans have been clever enough to vote overseas.

R122 I may just be showing my age here but one of the many things I don’t understand is the persistent use of random phrases like “gender” “gender envy” “I want their gender” as a compliment

It is the same kind of confusion I get when straight girls police the hell out of pronoun use but repeatedly refer to cis men as “babygirl” or other female terms

I know that one is a product of the long standing neutering of gay men and over entitled invasion of gay male space and conversation but I am looking for the justification from a pronoun police perspective

by Anonymousreply 123May 1, 2023 7:41 PM

R123 generally I don’t get use of the word, and I posted that because I thought Joe looked cute in it and I was ruminating once more on how I’d love to fuck him instead of the caption. But in this specific instance going back on Twitter the user who posted it seems to be a trans guy so I think that’s more understandable

R124 Sometimes I genuinely do not know if they are idiots or I am just getting old. I suspect it is a combination of both

A trans guy expressing admiration for how Joe looks as a man I can at least understand. It is the random single word thing and it gets used a lot I am sure for the most part not by trans people

by Anonymousreply 125May 1, 2023 7:50 PM

You might be old, but you are correct that it's supposed to be used by trans men/women to show admiration for someone with their same gender identity. Basically the trans version of saying mood. Makes no sense when straight cis teenage girls use it for men. Though it's someone on hstwt, about half of them say they are trans.

by Anonymousreply 126May 1, 2023 8:05 PM

This might be very controversial, but to me the whole 'gender envy' thing is a prime example of how - for many teens - the whole pronoun/gender thing is a fad and a way to fit in rather than an actual questioning of or discomfort of their assigned gender at birth. I'm not in any way disregarding the validity of genuine trans people, or people that use 'they' and feel that they honestly don't fit into the gender norms, but a large proportion of people using pronouns and neo-pronouns these days are doing it to fit in or because it seems like a cool thing to do. You can barely find anyone under the age of 25 on Twitter who doesn't have 'they' as one of their pronouns - what are the odds that all these people just so happen to be uncomfortable with their own gender?

It's the same with the hundreds/maybe even thousands of people in the Heartstopper fandom that identify as asexual. Asexuality is valid but it is extremely rare for humans to have zero sexual drive or interest in sex - it's been part of our evolution since the beginning of time. Most of the people that identify as ace nowadays are either a) young and nervous of the idea of sex and intimacy, b) have had traumatic experiences in that area, or c) feel that it's the 'thing to be' nowadays. Which is fine, they can do what they like, but it's something that the vast majority of young people will grow out of by the time they hit their mid to late twenties.

by Anonymousreply 127May 1, 2023 8:05 PM

R127 yeah not to overly engage in discourse but it does make me especially uneasy when it’s seemingly cis girls not transitioning who say “gender”, especially because it is always said about kit and (before he got cancelled) bash, and not will and Joe. I’m not going to jump to saying they’re all racists or homophobes, I think a lot of them were just horniest for those two and say “gender” or “babygirl” to cover up wanting to fuck them, but I do think there’s something there about how they view Asian guys and less passing queer guys. When trans guys do it, I’m not going to nitpick and critique the fact that seeing more muscular, hairier, taller etc guys is the gender expression they might be more envious of and aspire to, but when it’s cis girls I do side eye

R145 I expect more of a gay man really but he clearly is all about Kit as a tween as well. The reason that is clip is so popular is that it’s some of the first physical interaction that the public has seen where they both look totally at ease. It’s sort the first time you see them as two, pretty clearly, queer men who are friends that are totally comfortable together. Straight guys don’t usually have that kind of friendship - even with gay mates.

I also noticed a couple of aghast comments observing it all looked a bit gay which was jumped on by others saying not to assume anything from appearances. So there are genuinely followers of his that somehow have no idea he is gay and it may well have been a shock in spite of his involvement in Heartstopper and his grid being a literal homage to his boyfriend

R181 Completely obvious with the caveat it was obvious without knowing their backstory both Bash and Joe were gay and Kit was pinging not straight but status uncertain which was likely a reflection of his own uncertainty. If I was to come across him now not knowing his story I would call gay which is what makes me think he leans more towards guys certainly at this time

Will I agree is a mystery sometimes I think there is no way he is not but I have come across guys very like him before that give a confusing aura but turn out to be straight so who knows. It would be a tragic loss the community if he isn’t

R181 honestly as someone who’s thought from early days that Kit was bi with a mild but pretty close preference for women, and who thinks Bash and Joe are both obviously gay, I ironically think Will fits some of the early theorization people had about Kit. Not quite straight, strong preference for women but open to men and has attraction to some guys such that he’s comfortable if people ID him as queer. Could be totally wrong of course

R184 I agree with that he has given zero impression of being female attracted but some public demonstration that there is an attraction to guys. I doubt given the background with Heartstopper and his friendship group that it would be the performative acts of a straight guy. The logic says he is not straight. The confusing bit is he plays his emotions so close it makes him really tough to read and his relationship with Kit confuses the issue further. Beneath the public thirsting and running joke I believe Kit is genuinely attracted to him. Will certainly loves him back but the nature of that love is obscure

I would hope if I was ever in a room with them in real time my senses wouldn’t fail me but from afar I find him impossible to read

Some of this is about closeness but some is honestly more “who is eager amongst the cast” (ex Bradley). I don’t see kizzy going, they didn’t even bother going from Brighton to London when both Joe and Will were in the trials so doubt they’ll head to Chichester for Bash.

In the “definitely going” (absent a random job not in England for the whole duration): Kit, Will, Tobie, Rhea, Patrick who seems to actually like Bash even if he’s indifferent to Joe, Alice (with Patrick and only for show), Leila, Bradley. Expecting the first few to come to a Saturday show so they can all hang out Sunday.

In the “likely but wouldn’t be shocked if not”: Cori, Jenny

That Lexxie weirdo camped out throwing a fit about Kit again in the quote tweets, how funny. Anyway, those nomination are old, so I'm not sure why people are relitigating them again like they're brand new.

R210 not relitigating the Joe part, my point was I’ve gotten used to him being snubbed for these nonsense awards, it’s fine. But it’s not great optically that they picked Kit and Yaz and then only mentioned Kit

Also lexxie is a nut job, mostly the latam fandom is more sane but she and a few Kit stans who are really cruel re Joe let that down

R216 Volume 3 isn't a lot of Charlie storyline, it's just barely the beginning of it and adding in Nick's dad means some of volume 4 is added to next season. So yeah, it'll be Paris + hints of Charlie's ED and Nick coming out to everyone + side characters. Only plus side is hopefully Nick loses his shine as the most perfect boyfriend ever to live and people won't be pissy at Charlie when he's going through in S3

by Anonymousreply 218May 2, 2023 5:09 PM

R216 He's confident in his relationship with Nick, so I assume the confidence is him being out with him at school, at prom, and so on.

by Anonymousreply 219May 2, 2023 5:12 PM

R218 I’m torn. I get it from a storyline narrative perspective and I’ll wait to see how it plays out, but it is shit Kit will have 2 “strong” storylines with a good bit of Olivia in the first two seasons, and Joe gets kicked to secondary storyline. Ideally we at least get a bunch of scenes of Charlie by himself struggling with his mental health and ED throughout the entire season, and the “starts to realise Charlie isn’t ok” is just nick taking weeks or months to put the pieces together.

Basically I just wanted it to be S1 Emmy Kit, S2 Emmy Joe, S3 Emmy either one but the way these storylines are being described thus far I have a sense of what way it’s going to go, again

by Anonymousreply 220May 2, 2023 5:14 PM

R220 We should absolutely be getting scenes of Charlie struggling, most importantly because it's imperative that the audience sees Charlie unraveling. Charlie passing out at the museum is one of them, and I suspect part of why the intimacy coordinator was there was to help choreograph the fall and Kit catching and cradling Joe.

R221 yeah I will say I think one of Alice’s stronger bits of writing is actually the Charlie mental health storyline, but the worst part is how out of nowhere it was. I get the point, that it was meant to be kind of through Nick finding out Charlie was hiding it, but realistically it is more moving and honest if we see Charlie struggling and actively trying to put on a happy face for Nick than just randomly discovering it for the first time when he faints.

Plus storyline aside I want Joe to hve more scenes that aren’t centered around Nick this season

by Anonymousreply 223May 2, 2023 5:26 PM

R223 Even with the Nick of it all, the writing has to drop hints throughout for Nick to add up and deduce what's going on. It's realistic for him to take a bit to put it all together, especially when Charlie's own family fails to realize what is going on. If the writer they got to help Alice is worth anything, she would know to pepper in more explicit scenes of Charlie struggling behind closed doors so that the audience comes to that realization alongside Nick.

by Anonymousreply 224May 2, 2023 5:34 PM

I have to say that while I'll be the first to riot if season 2 is the Nick show with a side of Charlie, there are a lot of conclusions being jumped to here with very little information. Alice is annoying but I'm fairly certain that the storylines will be evenly balanced between Nick and Charlie in every season.

by Anonymousreply 225May 2, 2023 5:37 PM

R224 yeah agreed. I think the abruptness of it all is what feels odd. Little moments of Nick going in early episodes “are you feeling ok? You’ve barely touched your lunch”, or him hearing from Tao that Charlie said he’d eaten with Nick when Nick thought he’d eaten with Tao, for Nick to put together what’s happening, coupled with solo joe scenes of him going through it, would be best

by Anonymousreply 232May 2, 2023 6:18 PM

R223 I think some of you are mixing up the reception of the show/Nick’s popularity with what is actually going on in the series. S1 was very much balanced between Charlie and Nick’s storylines. We saw Charlie deal with Ben and the aftermath of his outing. We saw him deal with his own insecurities (not being good at sports) and saw his relationships with his friends and sister develop. Nick had his own journey with discovering his sexuality, noticing that his friend group wasn’t that great and so on. They both came together and had their relationship arc but they individually had their own moments to shine. S2 will be the same i’m sure.

by Anonymousreply 233May 2, 2023 6:35 PM

R233 I think they each had storylines but Nick’s were undeniably stronger and had better writing making it more awards worthy. Before anyone comes at me, I also do think kit gave the slightly stronger performance S1 and deserved the Emmy. “I’m bad at rugby” versus coming to terms with sexuality is a huge huge difference in importance. I actually always defended Nick/Kit being made a colead with Charlie and even understood the S1 focus on Nick’s storyline over Charlie’s by saying S2 would be Charlie’s struggles as the “bigger” ones. Now, as others have noted it’s unclear before the show comes out if that is or isn’t the case to be fair. But if nick’s storylines are again way more “important” and we just get “confident charlie supporting his bf” most of the season with an out of nowhere fainting scene with minimal buildup, then I will be annoyed. Even if they have equal screentime those aren’t equally strong or awards worthy storylines

by Anonymousreply 234May 2, 2023 6:43 PM

I just can't see how Nick's story can be the most important when it's just a repeat of S1, this time with people nobody cares all that much about. Even the David storyline is just him being a giant jerk and then Tori telling him off and that concludes it.

by Anonymousreply 235May 2, 2023 7:03 PM

R234 It would be very stupid of Alice to write Charlie’s storyline that way. I’m confident that Joe saying “Charlie goes on a journey” was his way of saying Charlie will deal with heavier subjects and therefore Joe will be able to showcase his acting range even further than he did in S1. I choose to be optimistic anyway.

by Anonymousreply 236May 2, 2023 7:04 PM

R235 It's not a repeat of S1, it's the inverse. It's the other side of the gay experience, the family members that don't accept you no matter how hard you try. That kind of stuff resonates just like the Nick and Sarah stuff did.

by Anonymousreply 237May 2, 2023 7:26 PM

Agree with R233, when all is said and done I fully expect both of their storylines to be important and have equal weight. Fandom, media, critical reactions are another story, but as much as Alice blows she cares about Charlie’s storyline and at the end of the day the breakouts were Kit, Joe, and everyone else is distantly behind them.

by Anonymousreply 238May 2, 2023 7:31 PM

We will see when the show comes out I guess. I expect Joe and Kit to have equal screentime but I suspect that again Kit’s will be better written to tug at fan/reviewer heartstrings and will again be the awards bait, but maybe Alice will prove me wrong. Either way I’m sure they’ll act it well

by Anonymousreply 239May 2, 2023 7:36 PM

R237 It's poorly written because David is a horrible one-dimensional pos. And the conclusion is lame. I'd be really surprised if that shit comes across as the most important thing in the season. And I've bitched about the idea of too much Nick focus.

R240 It's written one way in the comics, but there are already signs that it's being fleshed out in the show. Nick and Charlie meeting Nick's dad in Paris, for one. It's not going to be a one-off confrontation with his dad like it was in the comics.

by Anonymousreply 242May 2, 2023 9:18 PM

R242 oh for Christ’s sake. I miss them being cheeky and fun but I’m so glad they’re off Twitter.

I presume Joe and bash will either both go back to Bash’s parents or get a place together/Joe will live with bash. Solely because realistically he’ll probably stay mostly in Chichester till the play is done in June, then paris fashion week, then HS promo, then the show out so he’s pretty full on working until august. And while he’s then probably free unless he has another project till s3 in October, given he’ll be in Netflix accommodation October-December, I don’t think he’d bother getting his own place till then.

If bash’s next few months are in London, maybe he’d get s place and they’d live together. But honestly bash’s family probably have a huge house. If they’ve got their own floor and get on well with them, they’re both young enough to not bother with the hassle of moving

A lot of the cast seems to have moved to London, and Will this likely be living in their own apartment not in Netflix provided housing for s3. I fully expect Joe and Bash to live together this summer. If that means they rent/buy a place of their own or simply keep living with Bash’s parents is probably mostly do to what future work they both have coming up that we don’t know about.

If they both have upcoming jobs outside the London area, they can stay with the Croft’s when they’re in London. But if they are both planning to be living/working in London quite a bit in the coming year, they might want to get someplace of them own. Unlike Yaz, Joe and Bash can actually afford a London flat.

R255 I can’t decide if he’ll bounce around and see friends and family in IOM, London, etc a bit or if he’ll relish having more than a weekend with his boyfriend. My guess based on little is if he’s wrapped, go to Chichester and see bash for a few days/week, then maybe go to IOM for a few weekdays while bash has a performance every day, see some of the cast and other mates in London, and then head back to Chichester on weekends and for the last week. But who knows, this is based on nothing

by Anonymousreply 256May 2, 2023 10:41 PM

R252 Why not? He stayed with them mostly without Bash when he was filming Billy Walsh I think it is pretty clear the Crofts consider him family and their home has been his since he finished school

I really don’t think Bash will be living full time in Chichester it is only just over an hour’s drive to London and while staying there through the week during the run makes sense I’m sure he’ll be returning to London for his weekends of Saturday night until Monday evening. Lucy is also in Chichester depending on her living arrangements they could stay with her

I imagine when Joe gets back he will spend some time on the Isle of Man but he is London based as are most of his friends and his Croft extended family I imagine that is where he will be a lot of the time catching up

R261 oh gotcha. I mean to be honest even if he had nothing aside from what we’ve publicly seen 99% of working actors would kill to have that. Netflix series co lead, small films with substantial roles in his off time, a great agency. For many working actors a singular year like that would be amazing let alone the start of a career. Bash has a similar thing, really good setup for both. Plus will and Yaz are honestly doing really well for themselves. Joes is obviously absolutely insane; totally deserved but the fact that his first three jobs are lead in a Netflix show, award notice in a play, lead in Marvel is like lightning striking twice.

With Joe, since his role isn't confirmed and he's out of the spotlight and Agatha has no leaks strangely (most disney+ shows have tons more leaks), so it's under the radar I feel people don't realize how big of a deal it is. It's insane he got that role.

by Anonymousreply 264May 3, 2023 12:56 AM

R259 Not obvious no

He has been very quiet and mostly in London as far as anyone can tell. I hope he has got a big project under wraps but the elephant in the room is the possibility he just hasn’t got much work on. A lot of young actors don’t I know he is the darling of the moment with significant social media engagement but how does this work? Would that in itself land him major roles? To an outsider he is a talented but fairly obscure young actor at the start of his career with a big social media following

Sometimes it feels like people are really reaching. The whole met gala debacle for example when there were people even on here swearing blind he was a nailed on invite and everything he did was met gala prep. No one in the cast (with the outside possibility of a wild card for Yaz) were ever going to get invites this year

Sometimes it seems too many people who spend a lot of time online are absorbing a little of the Kool Aid the crazies who think he is a Hollywood A lister have been drowning in

I will get some of them after me now not that I give a shit. I hope and believe Kit, Joe and Bash all have great futures and acting careers ahead of them but at the moment they are all just starting out and hardly anyone over twenty or outside the lgbt+ community have even heard of them, including Kit

Comparing Kit to Dan Levy was also silly since Dan's an Emmy winner, is famous in the US and Jonathan constantly gushed about him in interviews.

R265 no, it’s great to hear opinions.

I know that translates to $$ for them but I didn’t really think about how his 1.5M likes a post really translate for him. It’s not like he’s spruiking for anything really. His posts for Loewe (and Tag etc.) are paid but they’re few and far between.

Anyway, more time to concentrate on the slut era.

R274 My inability to read Will at all is starting to bother me I need a narrative so he is either asexual or has some very specific or specialist kinks and my money is on the latter. He has got an unusual sex drive he keeps compartmentalised from his emotional life hence why nothing blossomed with Kit. Much as I want Kit to be a horny deviant I suspect he is pretty vanilla beyond being a bit of a greedy bottom with a shower room fixation

I agree Tobie is probably horny as hell and up for most things and Bradley a Sunday morning missionary and morning papers guy who wishes he had Joe’s sexual stamina. Which might also be me just not wanting to think about Brad and his curly haired lover having sex

Rhea’s a bit of a wild card in terms of career. Not to my taste obviously lol but she does have a look that’s pretty classic and valued in entertainment.

by Anonymousreply 291May 3, 2023 2:53 AM

R265 I was one of the people who posited the idea of Kit at the Met Gala and the idea was contingent on Loewe buying out a table, which they wound up not doing, not on me “drinking the Kool-Aid” and thinking Kit is an A-lister. Anyway, Kit’s doing fine. The show’s only been out for a year and he’s won acting awards, booked a couple of movies as a lead, worked on fostering fashion partnerships, and has done VO work. He’s continued to work steadily as he’s been doing for years, At the end of the day, Kit and Joe are the two people I’m not even remotely worried about.

R280 Will went from potentially being queer to potentially being asexual? We really need the cast to do something because this thread is losing it.

by Anonymousreply 293May 3, 2023 3:10 AM

R290 my list for best fucks in order are:

Joe, Bash, Tobie, Kit, Will >>>>> Bradley. I think the first 5 are probably actually good to phenomenal in bed. Bradley I do not.

Horniest in order: swap bash and Joe and otherwise the same.

I think bash is probably amazing in bed but Joe seems like he’d be a little bitchy and into rough sex, plus I’m sure his dirty talk is phenomenal and he’d put in the work. So he gets the edge.

R291 Neither he gets loads of attention from fans and online engagement. The extent of his popularity online and the fanbase cannot be overstated. His popularity and crossover palatability is also cynically used by media companies for clicks sometimes at the expense of his cast mates. Both of those are true but are not the points being discussed in the conversation for that post

The conversation was how far does his fan popularity actually translate into his career long term and how too many people online are caught up in that bubble and end up thinking he is the biggest star on the planet when he in fact appears to be on break from work hanging around gay clubs and the gyms of Croydon not gracing the steps of the met gala

Also that this is really not a bad thing because they are all kids doing great at the beginning of their careers but most people have never heard of any of them and some people need perspective, patience and a dose of reality as they build their careers

I thought it was too good to be true that it had only elicited reasonable responses from posters who understood what I was saying. The twitter girls were clearly too busy over there in their latest cat fight and have only rocked up now with their over reactions and lack of comprehension. I don’t give a fuck what the latest drama over there is but from that sulky statement and past experience I would guess something triggered the hysterical Kit obsessives who read everything as an insult to their poor sweet baby the worlds most put upon victim

Very random question trying to keep us on topic. When do you reckon Bash and Joe stopped using condoms?

by Anonymousreply 298May 3, 2023 3:31 AM

R298 valiant effort! If they really do live with Bash’s parents there is the clean up factor to consider so I think they’d still be in rotation at times (though obviously there are many manual ways to deal). Other than that I’d think Bash was probably pretty good keeping up with testing (and I guess possibly on PrEP if his Insta likes count) so they’d just have waited for Joe’s all clear

by Anonymousreply 299May 3, 2023 3:35 AM

R297 Your little measured act doesn't work out too well if you throw an entire fit over a one sentence response. He's not the biggest star on the planet and nobody here has ever implied as such, so not sure what audience you think you're so valiantly addressing here.

R298 OK that was left field but a welcome call now the hair trigger girls who don’t understand words have arrived

Who knows? When was their last check up when they met? If they were lucky with timing and both knew they were clean I would say from the start if not as soon as they got tested and don’t forget Bash may well have been on PrEP as well. That of course would be the sensible answer

It was also just coming out of Covid restrictions, the Isle of Man was locked down hard and they were young and horny so they may have been beyond caring for reasons other than purely refined romantic feelings

R319 many very strong opinions with regards to this by the gay men on here. I agree fundamentally that Joe doesn’t seem that far out of his possible wheelhouse but he does seem to like men a little taller, less slight and not as white as Joe… based on total speculation because of a few Insta likes obviously. Personally think he’s crazy if he’s not into him at all but that’s because getting to make out and toss around Joe for a living is basically my dream job

R334 the only thing I hate about Joe and bash dating, which is otherwise extremely cute, the wholesome gay relationship we all like to see, and produces a great deal of fantasies for me as I find them the hottest in the cast, is that they act like puritans at public events. Bash sprinting across the stage in Brazil, nearly ignoring the hosts to get to Joe, and then exchanging a cursory bro hug torments me.

by Anonymousreply 335May 3, 2023 5:37 AM

You are probably right although sex can happen between friends without feelings or awkwardness their situation is so unique it and seems very unlikely

by Anonymousreply 337May 3, 2023 5:44 AM

I will also say Joe and bash seem remarkably fond of one another’s personality quirks which makes the whole thing extremely successful for a teenage relationship. Much as I appreciate both bash’s outgoing nature and Joe’s more introverted mild bitchiness (with a lot of sweetness too), I can see how either would be a little hard. But fan reports note than when Joe sees bash speaking to fans he lights up and is very smiley about it and there are enough videos of bash laughing fondly at Joe to create a tiktok sensation should people be so inclined. Extremely compatible, good for them, the show, and my fantasies.

I look forward to Tobie’s paris vlog where I presume Joe and bash and kit and Maia all fuck off randomly and it’s the supporting cast trying to entertain.

Agree zero chance of Kit and Joe ‘accidentally’ feeling each other up. Think they met each other a little young and have developed a very particular friendship… but honest to god I’d love it if they had fucked. They look really hot together - hug gif really tipped me over the edge on this opinion. Again, just because they look hot together, equally would love to see Bash and Joe fuck but they continue their ‘private, not secret’ nonsense

Aside from the olivia comment I haven’t seen him active in socials today, and in this pic his eyebrow slit seems fairly grown out. Between that, aubrey never being on set, and Kathryn’s promo for her other show (plus the IMDb and other date info) I’m going to presume he’s done and flew to England with Connor today.

Someone should post those links on the Sebastian Croft thread

Interesting we have an explanation for the flying visit back to the UK from Brazil. It makes sense that it was for a read through. And Richard Eyre contacted him for 4000 Miles and asked him to be Leo. That is not insignificant and is a reflection of just how highly thought of he must be within the industry

He also ventured into discussing Ben with another attempt to explain playing him as a complex multi dimensional character instead of one dimensional pantomime villain whilst also being careful to clarify this does not justify his actions. Not too different from what he got piled on for saying before let us see if the mob have evolved their comprehension skills at all this time or if the shared brain cell is in use elsewhere

Bitterly disappointed he described Alice as a genius

R378 Another explanation is Joe may have been asked that or about Kit generally multiple times and he was being deliberately vague and indifferent to put crass fans and the Joe Kit enthusiasts in their place. He is snarky enough to do it however sweetly he was smiling. A minimum of six months and they didn’t fly to be with each other once completely normal for friends but how will the shippers cope

Saying that if he hasn’t wrapped already he will be in the next couple of weeks not months so it is possible Kit will be out of the UK working when he returns. Again all eyes on who turns up in Chichester and when

by Anonymousreply 398May 4, 2023 12:48 PM

The connections they've all been making as they work, especially within the British stage and film industry, are what'll give their careers longevity. You have Bash getting 4000 Miles because Ginny Schiller had previously worked with him on King John, Kit getting Rocketman because Dexter Fletcher had worked with him on an advert previously, Kit getting Heartstopper because he'd auditioned for Daniel Edwards before and Daniel remembered him from that audition, and so on. I wouldn't be surprised to see any of the cast pop up in another project directed by Euros down the line.

R398 I think Joe's "miss u" fueled them (and me) into wanting a reunion. Though I'm not anxious about it and it'll happen when it happens.

R400 I brought up a supporting role in Gladiator 2 as a possibility back in January so I would personally be pretty pleased if that was it, but I don't know if that's enough to go on right now. Then again, someone on here guessed Wiccan based on much, much less.

R404 bigbreadpedlar. I think him following kit back is interesting and notable but I do think people saying it’s a sign it’s not about GQ as he doesn’t follow Joe are stretching. Joe doesn’t follow him and wasn’t fanboying over him that night

by Anonymousreply 406May 4, 2023 1:19 PM

When did he follow Kit? If it was this year and not last year I think there’s a realistic chance that it wasn’t a GQ follow, but a follow after going to see him in Streetcar 200 times. They share a publicist so she could have gotten him backstage and they may have connected more then. Or maybe it’s Gladiator. I don’t know.

Last unrelated bit of ruminating on where in the world Joe might be, connor tends to posts his flights and location when hes alone or with anyone except bash and Joe. So I think though not certain we would’ve seen him post his Atlanta to Toronto flight if he was just visiting and going home rather than on to England, but maybe that’s just too boring an itinerary

R416 I have to say she is the one from the cast I am a bit concerned for. We laugh at her self promotion and ego but I genuinely have a soft spot for her. The discussion earlier around her Elle interview I think renting a luxury three bed in London? That is burning money. And she is always on holiday

The rest of the cast seem pretty grounded but she may be in real danger of buying into her own hype and burning through her money real quick. I am sure her income is great at the moment from her fashion partnerships and promotion but she hasn’t got family money or a serious career in acting to fall back on. Those deals will dry up when she isn’t the moment any more and while she may have a good future as influencer, model and activist that won’t necessarily pay for a full socialite lifestyle without saving or investing her windfall now

I hope I am wrong she is a trans woman of colour from a working class northern background I want her to excel but there are some worrying signs there

R403 R418 I missed that it is truly but not surprisingly deranged. We know these people aren’t well but I love the added twist of the conspiracy theory that Netflix promoting a cult as the only explanation that anyone would be interested in him in addition to the delusion of grandeur that their nasty little twitter echo chamber has any effect on the real world, his career or popularity

Richard Eyre contacted him to offer him the role of Leo no one seems to be picking up how significant that is it even surprised me and is a reflection of the esteem he is held in at the highest levels of the industry and by the people who know and work with him. He has suffered no reputational damage or loss of popularity

Also Kit praising him is evidence he hates him. Sadly I am sure they really believe it and there will never be any reasoning with them. If they are so far gone they think Patrick and Alice liking a no doubt innocuous post of theirs is a secret code they support a plan to physically attack Joe and Bash then even Kit publicly worshipping Bash’s cock wouldn’t convince them he actually likes him

R441 She almost always gives vague or 'I don't know' answers whenever someone asks a character question - she really hasn't fleshed out the characters well at all. I really like the show and the actors brought more depth to the characters, but in the graphic novel the characters basically have a couple of generic personality traits and that's as complex as they are. She even admitted in an interview that the way she creates characters is to pick one personality trait and build it around that. I'm fairly sure you'd learn not to do that in a beginner's writing class.

by Anonymousreply 442May 4, 2023 4:55 PM

R441 I think Alice doesn’t like her probably because she feels she’s “deeper” than her, but is scared to invoke swiftie wrath. That being said full adults going after a 14 year old and deciding she’s commiting the great evil of… projecting her music taste onto a fictional character while they in turn project into bash that he is an evil transphobe is wild.

by Anonymousreply 443May 4, 2023 4:56 PM

As someone that doesn’t like or care about Ben at all, I don’t get the dramatics. All they’re going to do is make him a slightly more dimensional character the same way they did in the first season, with his facial expressions showing that he’s struggling with his sexuality while simultaneously being an asshole. They’re going to show a reason, not an excuse as to why he’s acting the way he is. He’s not going to become a hero or BFFs with Nick and Charlie, like what the actual hell are people imagining?

They say things that mirror each other (“I never liked you” vs “I love liking you”; “you’re a loser with no friends” vs Nick extolling Charlie being the greatest person ever; Ben insisting Charlie can’t just end it vs Nick saying if he wants to end it he respects his decision). Since Nick is their precious baby fav, making Ben more complex would only do more to show how great Nick is so why are they bitching

Instead there’s a lot of talk about how they hope it shows how painful Homophobic family is etc etc. for all Alice sucks I’m glad she ignored that and wrote Ben back in - I don’t really care about him but I do about Charlie and cutting him s2 as Charlie’s mental health issues tick up would be so dumb

R506 I know it well and Chichester is indeed very middle aged most of the tickets sold to members pre general release. The audience will be mainly genuine theatre connoisseurs and the provincial arts set with clusters of Heartstopper fans mainly at weekends and the closing night

I am really quite interested in whether any of the truly awful convention gang go I imagine they are torn between their obsessive desire to try and see Kit and not wanting to be seen as supporting Bash. If it was in London I would put money on them showing up at least on the closing weekend but thankfully the distance might spare everyone the sight of them

He is an idiot a complete fool and I can only assume bitter from an unfulfilled love life due to his complete inability to read men. Either that or he is jealous as fuck that hot twinks like Joe get all the guys instead of him and there is a reason Joe is guaranteed an insatiable temptress you don’t need to see how whipped Bash is to know that

R529 official opening is may 9. Agree it’s not essential but they’re very much into that sort of gesture from what we’ve seen.

Just browsing around, some people arguing about why Ben is needed say things like this

by Anonymousreply 578May 5, 2023 8:43 PM

R578 I agree with Cormac for a variety of reasons, one being his likes and follows etc have been genuinely way more “problematic” than anyone else, but also because unless Yaz does something legit very bad, any media site that’s not a conservative hack is going to be very reluctant to call her out

by Anonymousreply 580May 5, 2023 8:55 PM

R577 I’ll actually go through in order. Kit, Joe, Bash, despite being “called out” a lot, are extremely unlikely to me. Will, Tobie, Cori, Kizzy, RheA, Jenny - all also very unlikely (just not as “high profile” or public so harder to say). Obviously no clue re the newbies though tempted to say Bradley for the laughs.

Yaz, it would be something like not paying a service or rent for ages or leaving a hotel room trashed, maybe obviously doing Coke at a club.

Without wanting to be unfair or project onto him, probably Cormac though again not accusing him of being a murderer in secret or something. Just process of elimination.

Though frankly doubt many of the cast, kit and Joe and potentially will Yaz and bash will remain high profile enough to have any “big scandals” post show

by Anonymousreply 581May 5, 2023 8:58 PM

R580 to be honest I think it’ll get no traction. The best angle for media outlets to go with that was easily oscar Isaac moon knight - higher profile actor, throws his kippah to the ground, has his mother screaming at his during a shiva.

There are lots of Twitter accounts that go after Elizabeth Olson for playing an ethnicity she isn’t and I’ve never seen it mentioned elsewhere. I think the issue is if the fuckwits at Pink News or similar do what they did with Bash. Amplifying across the community the views of a small and mainly very young fanbase as though it’s a huge wave of people. In Bash’s case it took purchase because the whole thing could not have been more poorly timed (not his fault at all). I guess you never know what the environment will be by the time Agatha comes out but most Jewish people in America are of white European background and it is going to piss a lot of people off if a discourse about better more authentic representation for a group of ethnically white people takes off.
