Knit to This
The Traitors
Most of my Knit to Thises lean to the middle- or high-brow.
But sometimes the world is simply too much. Sometimes, what the heart most needs is listening to Alan Cumming make an entire meal out of the word “loch.” And, this, my friends, delivers that, if nothing else.
Sure, sure, sure, there’s a whole game going on in the series. The U.S. version features reality stars (most of whom I couldn’t pick out of a line-up even when wearing name tags) attempting to figure out which of their number is working against the team. They can win money via challenges. There is subterfuge.
Whatever.
That is not why I’m here. The balm for my soul (and my knitting) is AC, his voice, and, of course, his outfits, each more fabulous than the last.
Thank you for your service, Mr. Cumming. Your work has not gone unnoticed.
I will never watch that show, but I’m totally with you on Alan Cummings. That voice is the best! If you haven’t already, listen to him reading his memoir he wrote a few years back (Not My Fathers Son). I can highly recommend it, I came out with such respect for the man.
Yes! Loved listening to him read that moving memoir, so engrossing.
Dear Adrienne… have you seen Alan Cumming’s Paradise Homes on Britbox?? Must see television, if ever there was!

I found this last season (the first season, I think) and honestly, I watched the whole thing. Like Adrienne said, it was just what I needed to check out of the real world for a while.
Great trailer, I’m totally intrigued now. Thanks for this rec!
Totally love AC!! Make sure you watch Lost in Scotland with AC and Miriam Margolyes. It was fun, poignant and more fun!
