"His greatest comfort was in hugging his torment and in feeling that though she might despise him he did not change one whit. He loved her and would love her, and defy her and this miserable bodily pain." Elizabeth Gaskell, North and South (Ch 26, 'Mother and Son') #ThorntonThursday #RichardArmitage
Maybe I’ll revive my #ThorntonThursday posts.
Since National Bow Tie Day falls on #ThorntonThursday this year, it seems only right to celebrate them together. Technically the neckband JT wears to the dinner party is still called a cravat, but it sure looks like a forerunner of the later 19th century bow tie. 💙🎩💛 #RichardArmitage #NorthandSouth
Happy #ThorntonThursday! 💙🎩💛 Today is also #NationalHandshakeDay as we recall the #NorthandSouth events depicted below as #MargaretHale first refuses to shake the hand of #JohnThornton but corrects her mistake by initiating a handshake at the Thornton dinner (middle pic/bottom row). #RichardArmitage
A few moments of levity featuring #JohnThornton aka #RichardArmitage. 💙🎩💛 #ThorntonThursday #memes #NorthandSouth
Oops forgot to tag #thorntonthursday and #gaskell #gaskellsky #northandsouth
A picture of a book. The cover is pink and features a top hat and a wide-brimmed hat. The title is North and South by Elizabeth Gaskell. At the bottom, it says “in conversation with Adrienne Garcia-Specht and Morgan Spector”
Picture of Adrienne. She is wearing a black turtle neck. She has short hair, round glasses, brown skin and eyes. She is smiling.
Picture of Morgan. He is looking intently at the camera. He has a beard and full head of black hair.
It’s pub day! You can now purchase this new edition of North & South featuring a conversation between myself and actor/activist Morgan Spector wherever books are sold!
“He is my first olive: let me make a face while I swallow it.”

On #CoupleAppreciationDay there's no pair more deserving of recognition than #JohnThornton and #MargaretHale, whose journey to their HEA -- with all its ups and downs -- is chronicled in the 2004 BBC period drama, #NorthandSouth. 💙🎩💛 #RichardArmitage #DanielaDenbyAshe #ThorntonThursday #May1
