David Leon on Vera

Used to model a bit.

was a pretty boy

I remember him in that one off gay drama. He was the sacrificial lamb. I think it was called Paddington Junction.

Ah. Clapham Junction.

Guess he was on Vera only the first seasons. Last IMDB credits are 2017. Helas I guess his career faded away with the bloom of youth.

He was in Seasons (Series) 1-4 only.

Kenny Doughty has played DS Aiden Healy since Season (Series) 5.

R3 - The name of the movie was 'Clapham Junction.'

He directed one episode of "Vera" in 2018. He's working on his own feature called "Driven."

Oops, sorry. R4 went up while I was typing R5.

IMDB says he was in only 16 episodes, though. How many episodes are in a season of that show?

Why did they dump him? He seems fine on this series. I'm on season 3. As an aside, this character Vera is hilarious.

4. but each episode is LONG like 80-90 mins.

I think he may be a small man.

Clapham Junction was simply one of the worst movies ever made.

hehehe

Actually, it seems to be his second feature. Wiki says his first, "Orthodox", was completed in 2015. I guess he made a career change.

The scenes between the Treadaway twin and the neighbor have stayed with me. I don't remember much of the rest.

Wiki also says that he played Kieran in "Gold Digger," with Julia Ormond and Ben Barnes.

That's a 2019 project.

That scene with Joseph Mawle and Luke Treadaway in 'Clapham Junction' is one of the hottest film scenes I have ever seen. It's better and hotter than most porn.

Which scene? Joseph Mawle has BDF!

Clapham Junction was an odd film. It was as though the writer had written it a decade or more earlier and not bothered to update it. There were civil partnerships, but no one had a mobile phone.

R19

The scene of them having sex. But if you're asking , I'm guessing it didn't affect you the same manner.

Sorry to derail David Leon's thread.

I thought similarly about "The History Boys." It seemed that it should have been set in the late 1950s/early 1960s.

Well finally got to Season 5. Joe - David Leon - is gone, replaced by Aiden - Kenny Doughty. Kenny is quite cute - and has a juicier Dad bod.

I hear Season 10 is on now. How the hell haven't they retired Vera - the character must be far past retirement.

FWIW, "Vera" is the quickest drinking-game show for getting shitfaced.

Take a drink each time she calls someone "Love."

He's cute

So far Vera herself drinks like a ----------- . I don't know a charming northumberland expression. Anyone?

R24, okay, pet!

I love this series, but I would smack her silly if she called me "Luv" or "Pet" the number of times she calls perfect strangers that.

David Leon is sex on a stick. I'd have Kenny Doughty for sloppy seconds!

My thought is that, in the real world, a boss wouldn't get away with her sarcasm and snark.

I like the episodes that have an obvious, arty/edgy cinematography. The season 4 episode about stag hunters had a lot of gorgeous shots.

R28

You'd love the cinematography on 'Shetland.'

Thanks I'll check that out.
