I could never name the best actor in my life until last week I watched Telstar. Now I can say it's Con O'Neill. Definitely, forever, I suppose.
With great support of frooogscream.bsky.social thanks to whom I knew about that movie.

Joe Meek was a British music сreator, sound engineer and producer at late 1950s and early 1960s. He invented the concept of a recording studio and left more than two hundred compositions after him despite the fact he'd never written notes himself. The most well-known, Telstar (1962), became Top-1 in Britain and US soon after release, and afterwards - the sound symbol of the Cosmic Age. Joe, however, suffered from schizophrenia, unfair accusations of copyright infringement and country's homophobic laws. He commited suicide in 1967 in his studio at Holloway Road, 304.

Geoff Goddard was an English songwriter and composer who worked by Joe's side at 1960s. He recorded a number of singles, wrote songs and played keyboards for 'Telstar' and other Joe's productions. Maybe, Geoff was one of the few who trully comprehended Meek's vision. He left music behind after falling out with Joe and worked in the catering department of the University of Reading, Berkshire. In 1985, the earlier popular song 'Johnny Remember Me', written by him, got a cover by Marc Almon & Bronski Beat which had more then 300 000 copies sold.

In 2005 James Hicks and Nick Moran set a play 'Telstar' at the New Ambassadors Theatre, London, which was later adapted to a film 'Telstar: The Joe Meek Story' in 2008. Both the play and the film star Con o'Neill, making them one of the most deep and significant queer stories of the century beginning.

Ed and his nontrivial career choices
(come to think of it, the ceramics meme from Taika's interview feels pretty natural here)

I love it how Stede supports others passion for something even he doesn't even understands what it is and where it comes from
A caring leader type

my fav #ofmd headcannon is modern-au-steddyhands find out about the idea of omegaverse and then
- Everyone considers Stede an alpha. Stede's embarrassed;
- Ed brags he's an alpha. Bitched the next night;
- Izzy says the whole theory is stupid. Draws comics on it the same evening
