ceebee_eebeeMy obsession with Emilia Fox has reached Defcon 1. Which means it's time to post about it here where I can flail at some length. Yes, I so clearly have a type which seems to be blonde British actress over the age of 35 who probably plays some kind of law enforcement officer and you know what? I am SO ok with that. SHE IS PERFECT AND I LOVE HER.
Well, I love Nikki Alexander, which is kind of the same thing. I've been told (by Em, of course) that I fall in love with a character and then imprint on the actor and yeah. TOTALLY not gonna deny it. Nikki is SUPERB and Silent Witness is just BRILLIANT and I am happy, happy, happy. Of course I ship her with Leo because that's just how I roll, but it isn't even about that. The character is magic all on her own and I just want to eat her up with a spoon. I should have suspected I would fall for this show since long-running procedurals tend to appeal to me, but this woman. She is everything I look for in a character. Strong but damaged, brilliant but flawed, strong but vulnerable. I LOVE HER SO MUCH AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.
I should have suspected Emilia Fox was something special when all of tumblr appeared to have a collective orgasm over her playing Portia to Alex Kingston's Blanche on Upstairs Downstairs (and yes, that was INSANELY hot, thank you, BBC) but I didn't realize just HOW special. ::happy sigh::
So, time to add her to the list of lady loves. <3
PS. And if you haven't seen Silent Witness, you totally should. I've only watched the later seasons so far but I love it.
