Some Suspects

EThere is a great show called Suspects on Channel 5 that is on their second season right now. It is a quite classic crime drama with a twist. The twist is that there is no real script with lines. The actors get som script outlines and improvises the dialogue. And it is really great! Because of the improvising the dialogues and the acting seems more natural, because, in fact, mostley (if you haven't rehearsed in your head) our lines in real life are improvised.

And there are some interesting characters for us in it. In the first two episodes of series 2 Luke Newberry played the part of Nate Turner who was in fact a suspect for a while. I realised two things by watching those two episodes: 1. Luke Newberry is very very slim and 2. Luke Newberry is a really really good actor! I had learned both facts by watching In the Flesh, but now I just realised it even more.

And guess what, Luke Newberrys character Nate Turner, yes he was gay. He played a 19 year old gay character that already had his struggles in life. And I for one at least felt for him. Poor Nate.

And speaking of In the Flesh and Luke Newberry. Emmett J. Scanlan will also be part of Suspects! In season 1, all storys spanned over one episode, but in season two the storylines are double episodes. That means that we have two episodes with Emmett to look forward to!

You would think that the episodes will be aired this week because the last two episodes was aired last week and the two first the week before but that is not going to happen. I read that we have to wait until next year before we are able to see the two Emmett-episodes. What is the point of letting us wait that long I wonder? In the last episode we got to see some clips from it and I also read that Emmett will be in season 2. But on wikipedia it says that season 2 is just four episodes and that there will be a season 3 in 2015. But I want to see Emmett now! I think it is very unreasonable of them to letting us wait that long...

But at least Emmett took a photo with Clare-Hope Ashitey and his tashfinger. That is a bit of a comfort at least.

For Hollyoaks fans there is more reasons to watch Suspects than Emmett Scanlan. Also Emmetts girlfriend Claire Cooper starred in the first storyline of season 2. Claire Cooper is no one less than the fabulous Jacqui McQueen for 7 years. In the second storyline we got to see the wonderful Carley Stenson who is known to us as Steph Cunningham.

And when we are on the topic Emmett j. Scanlan I have to tell you that I saw the movie Guardians of the Galaxy this summer, also starring Emmett J. Scanlan. He had the quite small part of the head riot guard, but it was oh so important. And he played oh so good. Well worth going to just to see him. But the movie was really great!

Is it obvious that I have a little bit of a thing for Emmett J. Scanlan?
