Yuletide Nomination Coordination Station 2022

WARNING: This Is Not Where You Nominate, Only Coordinate

This post is where people declare what they have nominated, or ask other people to nominate for them. So if you do comment and/or add your nominations to the spreadsheet, that's great, because it helps other people decide what to nominate, but it WILL NOT result in your fandoms or characters being in the tagset. The only place to nominate is the Yuletide tagset.Use the comments on this post and the coordination Google spreadsheet to coordinate nominations with others.

• For information about nominating fandoms and characters, what is eligible for nomination, and other important links and announcements, refer to yuletide_admin.
• Nominations run Mon 19 Sept to Thurs 29 Sept. Nominations will be approved after that.
• Before tags are approved (after 29 September), you can only see your own nominations.
• You can nominate up to 3 fandoms and up to 4 characters in each fandom.

Please copy and paste the following information to comment on this post. Every item is optional except fandom.

• A nomination is something you plan to nominate. A request is something you're hoping someone else will nominate for you, because you ran out of slots.
• View and edit the google sheet here: Yuletide 2022 Nomination Coordination Station.
• If you can add your information to the spreadsheet yourself, please do! That would really help. PLEASE DO NOT SORT THE SHEET. If you want to view the list by nominated fandoms, use the autogenerated "sort by fandom" tabs.
• During the nomination period, the spreadsheet will get re-sorted by username daily at 6PM GMT (find your local time), to keep the data tidier.

<strong>your username:</strong> <strong>did you add this to the spreadsheet already?:</strong> Yes / No <strong>nomination OR request?:</strong> <strong>fandom:</strong> <strong>character 1:</strong> <strong>character 2:</strong> <strong>character 3:</strong> <strong>character 4:</strong> <strong>notes:</strong>

Help Wanted

If you have a few minutes and enjoy a bit of data entry, please volunteer to update the spreadsheet with information the comments in this post! If you do, add the data from the comment to the spreadsheet and reply to the original comment with Added to spreadsheet.

I did see that one recently - I was glad I knew about the changes advance but I did think it was fairly well done given all that, my main issue was that it ended up being a bit of a visual strain to watch for me as the version on Amazon Prime was colourised in an odd way (I'm not sure why as I have since discovered other places that have it available where it's in normal black and white which would have been fine).
I have since watched the 1980 version of WDTAE, which is a big improvement over the Marple one but I'm still partial to the new one - hopefully you don't have more technical issues when you get to the rest.

How very odd! Amazon hadn't colourised it at all when I last watched it on Prime, which I think was a year or two ago. I wonder why they didn't leave the original accessible as well? It seems only logical to have both versions up, it's not like they were fixing a damaged file. Oh well...

Hmm, the 1980 version is not one I've yet seen. I've been refreshing my memory of the David Lean film version of Blithe Spirit while I waited for my upgrade. Still planning to carry on with the other WDTAE, once I've finished my DYW letter. I'll let you know how it goes :)

I don't know if maybe it's a regional thing with Prime having the colourised version for me as it seemed like a recent addition to the site rather than one that had been there for a while. I can't see a different version on the site but that said I (re)watched the film Charade on it only a couple of weeks before that and thought the quality a bit grainy only to discover after watching it that they also had a remastered/more HQ version of Charade too just as a totally separate listing, so it's certainly something they might do.

The 1980 WDTAE did have the surprise treat of starring the same leads as the 1980s Tommy & Tuppence series, but that mostly made me want to track down some of those episodes to add to my older Christie viewings. & The David Lean Blithe Spirit is probably something I could do with a refresh of as well, but I do remember it as excellent viewing.
