It’s time for episode 3 of #NorthandSouth on this #ThorntonThursday eve!! Get ready for one hour of Mr. Thornton being ANGSTY and dramatically walking like this through Milton. Our heartbroken hero has to deal with all his feelings now.
“Miss Hale would not have me” 😫😫😫😫

He’s such a mama’s boy and we love him for it. Mrs. Thornton taught him to appreciate headstrong women.

Okay. Do you think Mr. Thornton sends the fruit to Mrs. Hale before or after Margaret rejects him??? Did he seriously go to the market, order some grape, write a note in the middle of his heartbreak??? Uuugh we love him.

Ok reason #1 episode 3 may be the best is Mr. Thornton’s confusion when Mr. Bell congratulates him (on the strike ending) and then Mr. Thornton having NO CHILL when Margaret shows up. He said GOOD DAY.
Margaret showing up to speak to Bessy after she’s passed is so sad. Margaret suffers so much loss in this episode!
GREAT EXHIBITION TIME. Totally a mini series invention BUT who else loves the tension between Thornton and Lennox?? reason #2 episode 3 is so good. #northandsouth
Shoutout to every fanfic that features a Great Exhibition reconciliation. I love imaging them strolling the exhibits together.
“I’m not sure I’d know how to dabble” is ICONIC. #richardarmitage #youdontneedhenrytoexplain
Mr. Thornton’s burgundy cravat is my favorite.

I could probably just tweet about the Great exhibition scene the rest of the night. But it is followed by a great scene between Mrs Hale and Mrs Thornton. Mrs Thornton’s face when Mrs Hale says “Margaret never does anything wrong” 🤣
Ok one more great shot of #Richardarmitage as Mr. Thornton at the Great Exhibition. The face that launches a thousand angsty fanfic plot bunnies.
Look at him with his pineapple 🍍

Ok Frederick the long lost son is finally here. Does anyone else follow the Instagram “Siblings or Dating?” People share pics of couples who look like they could be related and you have to guess. it reminds me of Outwood Station. IT’S HER BROTHER. Look at him!
“What a scowl that man has” excuse me Frederick, we prefer the word “smolder.”
He loves her so much 😫

#northandsouth #thorntonthursday
YES inspector mason! It’s now CSI Milton for the next 20 minutes.
I need someone with video skills to make a fan cam of all the times Mr. Thornton puts his hat on. It’s very... satisfying to watch.

Margaret is an incredibly bad liar. Also I made this meme:
RICHARD ARMITAGE IS SO GOOD IN THIS SCENE
“Miss Hale denies she was there?”

You can see him trying to puzzle out why she would lie about this, his shock at her lie, his desire to protect her, his jealousy all in one look. It’s a huge plot point in the book & he is perfect.
I would not want to be on the receiving end of this smoldering jealous glare. Or would I? Haha
