It's a conspiracy from the dreaded league of plot bunnies *nods*

And, oh my yes, he was gorgeous

He was, wasn't he? Just stunning-looking...

The bunnies are out to get you. I must admit though that I am very interested to see what they force you to write.

So ...

... *feeds the bunnies juicy carrots* ...

... and waits patiently to see what you come up with.

Well, first I have to finish season one of The Queen's Magicians, and Reel_Torchwood is coming up, and I do make an attempt at having a real life here and there....

I know how you feel on that one, people keep feeding bunnies in my brain and adding to my load. I've got reel_torchwood, story_lottery, novel_bigbang to do and another tonne of fics in my brain, as well as uni. I also saw an add for and was thinking about signing up for scifi_bigbang, so I know where your coming from.

Carrots anybunny?

He was gorgeous in UNCLE, I must agree.

They have been munching away for days now...

I get bunnies from pretty much everything these days. I don't have enough hours in the day to write, work, be a mother, have a life...

And then there is all the wonderful stuff other people write!

I know. Yesterday I was feeling guilty because I was cleaning my bedroom instead of writing or reading Torchwood... *giggles*

Icon says it all.

Hey, bunnies are bad enough!

he was just gorgeous,I was never a Robert Vaughn fan, But David..oh yesssss
(the bad guys were THRUSH)


hands more food to the bunnies...

Ah. So that's what it is. Thrush/Torchwood One, who's to know the difference? :D

*******************here bunny. good bunny***************

Be careful... I know where you keep yours :D Although admittedly mine don't need any feeding...

Ilya was originally a throwaway character, meant only to appear as background in a couple of episodes but David and his character quickly became the fan favorite. Sound familiar?

The original Ianto????? Oh, love it!

From Ilya's Wiki:

Although originally conceived as a minor character, Kuryakin, played by David McCallum, became an indispensable part of the show, achieving co-star status with the show’s lead Napoleon Solo played by Robert Vaughn. McCallum’s blond good looks and the enigmatic persona he created for the character garnered him a huge following of female fans. Such was the popular hysteria surrounding him that he was referred to in newspaper reports at the time as ‘the blond Beatle’ or the ‘fifth Beatle’. [1] While playing Kuryakin, McCallum received more fan mail than any other actor in the history of MGM. [2]

Much of the character’s appeal was based on what was ambiguous and enigmatic about him. When an acute reaction to penicillin hospitalized him in the early days of filming, David McCallum took the opportunity to give serious thought to how he might flesh out what was, at that stage, a sketchy peripheral character. The approach he hit upon was to build a persona based on ambiguity and enigma, hiding, rather than revealing, aspects of the agent’s background and personality. McCallum summed up the character in commenting "No one knows what Illya Kuryakin does when he goes home at night." [3]

Very similar, lol.

That is PERFECT for my purposes *looks around guiltily* The bunnies have WON!

Oops!

Ilya is very droll, very dry. IIRC, he does roll his eyes a lot as well. You'll have fun.

*chuckle* Oh, I'm going to date myself now...

Sounds like it was THRUSH, the chief enemy of UNCLE. The Technological Hierachy for the Removal of Undesirables and the Subjugation of Humanity. Very science orientated bad guys. (I still have very fond memories of Vincent Price's Victor Marton. Suave, intelligent and couldn't be trusted further than you could throw the Millennium Centre.)

My chief memory of Illya was his fondness for blowing things up. And his constant exasperation/amusement over Napoleon's antics. Hmm, now you come to mention it....

Oh, gawd.

Yeah. I've been loooking. Tempting, ain't he? My bunnies are having a field day... ANd I love that name! Subtle, they weren't...

He was dreeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaamy *sigh*.

Wasn't he? Utterly wow. And, did you read up what irishcaelan said? He was the earliest version of the Ianto character! *giggle*

i have hear of the mand form U.N.C.L.E. I might go on Youtube and check it out. hmmmm

Just wait until you see David McCallum.... oh boy.

I can't say I saw much of The Man from U.N.C.L.E but I love him in NCIS, Duckie is just fabulous.

Ducky is fabulous, but Ilya was edible :)
