The Long Firm

[firestorm717.livejournal.com]

Anyone know of slash, or really, any sort of fandom/fic for the 4-part BBC drama, The Long Firm? It's based on a novel of the same name by Jake Arnott, and revolves around the rise and fall of homosexual Jewish gangster Harry Starks in '60s Soho. Magnificent performance by Mark Strong as the titular character (see icon).

Edit: You can watch the series in its entirety on Youtube.

And of course that should have read I want slash too...not to, fail...

I was going to say that eventually I will end up writing some slash but well as you can see, I'm not exactly a master of the English language...lol.

I didn't know the entire show is up on Youtube XD that's all the more reason for people to watch and join the fandom, then!

You should write something! ^_^ I'm sad that such a great character and series has no fan presence whatsoever. I have several stories planned, one post-Ruby in which Harry struggles with depression (more gen fic), and another post-Lenny, where the two meet up again in Morocco, and...things happen, hehe. Was it just me, or did that, "I like a boy who's well turned out" totally send shivers down your back?

Yeah it is all there, it's just under a wierd name, had to look for the Long Firm and then it was one of the related videos on one of the clips.

I can't wait for fic of it, because it's positively begging to be ficced. I might have to watch it again and see if I can come up with anything.

Oh and re, "I like a boy who's well turned out." yeah it really did make me come over all funny, there was just such intense sexual menace behind his eyes when he said it, a very nice piece of acting.

Powerful.
