Don’t hate me!

I don’t get why he got a shrine for like ten years. He was a fictional character and not even that good of a character. The show was better in the two seasons without him

Sorry!

I think the initial shrine was partly just because of the opportunity. How often is a location from a show so easily publicly accessible? It was definitely partially mourning, but I think partially also an excuse for a lil set visit.

And ten years is, unfortunately, lowballing it. I went almost exactly 10 years ago, and even at that point I was expecting it to be taken down at any point. It’s been 17 years[1]. When I went, it was about zero percent about mourning Ianto, and 100% being like, there’s this insane fandom thing that I absolutely need to see and participate in. And I put a note up for Tosh because that hit me way harder, and also just to be silly because this is such a silly thing. We need to erect more shrines to fallen characters. Purely for the silliness.

Maybe but when I go abroad in the future I’d love to see Ianto’s shrine , something that is part of DW :smiling_face_with_tear:

I was considering going to university in Cardiff just to visit it lol. Eventually decided against it, but I wonder how many DW filming locations I could have collected just from studying there.

A very exciting day, just got 100 glossy copies delivered of my new record, Civil Temperatures! It’ll be available to buy on Bandcamp this Friday (for Bandcamp Friday when they waive all their fees for musicians), streaming everywhere else next Friday! It doesn’t get much more exciting than making and designing a thing and then actually holding it :sob:

Oh yeah, and also worth noting, for Doctor Who content, the quotes I picked to put on the inner sleeve lol.

There is now a petition to save the shrine (doubt it’ll achieve anything given the people who manage the area seemingly have plans for the shrine but its worth a sign imo)
