there are not enough words to convey how much i love nikki on silent witness, she’s just out there 24/7 comforting everyone, fighting for justice, speaking up for refugees and minorities, getting in to scrapes trying to help people out, sticking her nose in where she shouldn’t, making terrible decisions, loving with all her little heart, breaking all the rules, getting kidnapped on the regs and is generally a badass little tootise pop who takes no shit and does no harm. what a fucking hero, i will protect her at all costs.

I’m declaring it now. 2020 is going to be the year where we all unironically, whole-heartedly throw ourselves into our passions.

You like Hazbin Hotel? That’s awesome! Make your Alastor theories and ship every couple under the sun. Make fan art, write fic, speculate for the rest of the season. Don’t let tumblr’s cancel culture make you lose your interest.

You’re still superwholock? That’s banging. So much of us are struggling with disconnecting and distancing ourself from the things we used to love, bc of an unfortunate combination of peer pressure and mental illness. The fact that you’re still creating and consuming content is amazing. Keep at it.

You like “cliche” or “overrated” musicals? Of course you do! Shows like Hamilton, Dear Evan Hansen, Heathers, Be More Chill, Beetlejuice, and Anastasia are popular for a reason, and you clearly understand the craze. In 2020 may you continue to discover new musicals (I recommend Next to Normal and In the Heights, personally) but never lose your love for the musicals that made you love Broadway.

Cringe culture is dead. I’m killing it now. Life is too damn short to be ashamed of the things you like, or to let other people make you feel bad for liking it. The world needs more radiance and positivity.

In 2020, write the fic. Draw the art. Listen to kpop and Taylor Swift and dance around your room. Engage (kindly) with your favorite creators, spread love, and make fandom a fun experience again.

On Thursday 4th of April 2019 at 9pm on BBC One, Emilia will star in ‘Jack The Ripper - The Case Reopened’

In 1888 the most infamous serial killer of all time, Jack The Ripper, began his reign of terror in the East End of London. Between August and November five horrifically violent murders took place in Whitechapel. There was a huge manhunt, but the Ripper was never caught.

Since then there has been endless speculation about who the Ripper was, what motivated his crimes, and how the killer escaped justice.

Leading the Cold Case investigation is star of BBC One top drama Silent Witness Emilia Fox, and Britain’s top criminologist Professor David Wilson. Together they look at the Ripper’s modus operandi using modern technology such as a digital autopsy table, and recreating the murder sites to help understand the extraordinary risks that the Ripper took to kill his victims.

Using the Home Office Large Major Enquiry System (HOLMES), a bespoke computer system used by the police to help detect patterns in criminal activity, and evidence uncovered within the investigation, results strongly indicate that Martha Tabram is in fact the first Ripper victim.

Convinced that Martha Tabram was the Ripper’s first victim, Emilia and David ask a geographical profiling expert to take a fresh look at the pattern of Ripper murder sites, which takes the investigation into a completely different direction identifying the most likely suspect.

The debate about Jack the Ripper’s true identity is already over 130 years old and is sure to continue - but this documentary casts new light onto the case and is as definitive as could be in naming the killer.
