yuletide | 2021 Yuletide Promo Post

Welcome to the Fandom Promo post, everyone!

Here's where you get those eyes on your fandoms for sign ups!

Share what makes your Yuletide fandoms the shiniest and why you love them. A big part of Yuletide is how small our fandoms can be, and this is a good way to make sure other people know what gems there are out there!

Suggested form to use:

FANDOM NAME:
WHAT MAKES IT GREAT:
WHERE CAN I FIND IT (optional):

(Bonus optional: What are you thinking of requesting for this?)

EDIT:

Useful tips (Not required, but helps people if they want to engage with your fandom!):

- Mention what form of media the canon is. Is it a comic miniseries? Is it a twenty season tv show? Is it a book? Is it a twitter feed?
- Is it standalone or part of a series?
- It's best to make each fandom its own entry with its own title in the subject line! That makes it easier for people to find/see what you're promoting! Don't worry about 'spam', that is the entire point of this entry and you're using it exactly as intended.

For reference, last year's promo post!

FANDOM NAME: Series 9 of John Finnemore's Souvenir Programme

WHAT IS IT: 6 half-hour episodes of a radio programme

WHAT MAKES IT GREAT: This series of JFSP bounces around in time; we gradually meet all the members of a family through several generations. Because it's not completely in chronological order, both the punchlines to jokes and the meanings of specific references become clear only after we're first exposed to them, meaning it's great for a second listen. The reason I'm nominating it is because there are two female characters named Gally Nightingale and Susannah Noone who have a music hall act together in the early 20th century (Gally is a male impersonator, and the two of them perform a song together called "The Fellow with the Cello" that is SO CUTE), touring and raising their daughter Vanessa together. I shipped them from the very first moment they appeared, and would love to see more of them.

WHERE CAN I FIND IT (optional): You can listen to all six episodes on the BBC website or the BBC Sounds app. Also, if you need help figuring out who everyone is and what's going on, this website is incredibly helpful.

Seconded!

(I'm fascinated by terrible Patrick's possible menage a trois with Lettie and Monty James, too. :-)
