Blue/Orange: morality, images and references

Benedict Cumberbatch in blue and orange

Actor Benedict Cumberbatch has associations with red hair, history, the royal family, Richard III and Sherlock Holmes; here it is the blue and orange that are of interest.

Portrait by SadieB798 on Deviant Art:



“Benedict Cumberbatch - blue/orange

Gosh! I can't believe a whole year has gone by since I've done these! This was done as a class project to find a celebrity, do a portrait of them and use complementary colors to paint them. Obviously I chose Benedict Cumberbatch, and chose to use a scene from Sherlock as my portrait. These were super fun to do, I should try and do some more one day.”

The artist calls it blue and orange - maybe the blue has not reproduced too well!

Here is the quote that first got our attention. It is from just after the first wedding:



Which was such a bizarre statement to make, we became puzzled. Of course, it was really a message hidden in plan sight. Who for? I don't think we ever got an answer to that.

Sherlock Holmes and some significant titles

The following Sherlock Holmes stories have relevant colours in their titles:

The Five Orange Pips, The Adventure of the Blue Carbuncle, The Red-Headed League, A Study in Scarlet.

Two of them appear in the list of Arthur Conan Doyle's favourite stories that he published in The Strand Magazine in 1927.
Someone has made a poster from Conan Doyle's list:



The blue wheel reminds me of the poster for the play Blue/Orange

I'm hoping to get a thread going at some point on her. She's been quite an eye opener before, and I feel that is important to continue with.

You have a good memory! Yes, a 'Pixie' was a local name for a small orange. Nothing blue/orange though.

There was a lot of original information and connections about oranges, Peaches etc. on the old forum; it would be good to reproduce some of it. Organisation would be a bit of a nightmare: some of it would go better in an article than in a series of small posts... there just isn't enough time to do everything and salvage other people's old posts.

Blue and orange in films

“The trailer for The Hunger Games: Catching Fire was released on Sunday, in which it was revealed that the film has been shot in two colors. We've broken it down shot by shot below and explained the reason why this keeps happening…

Hollywood has decided to simplify, and all future movies will be light blue and orange. You may remember that we previously pointed this out as one of the annoying trends that make every movie look the same.”

"Maybe you haven’t noticed, but in the past 20-or-so years there’s been a real catchy trend in major Hollywood movies to constrain the palette to orange and blue. The color scheme, also known as “orange and teal” or “amber and teal” is the scourge of film critics – one of whom calls this era of cinema a “dark age.”

Cherie Blair’s sister speaks after the London Bridge attack

She blamed drugs not Islam for the terrorist attacks at Westminster Bridge and London Bridge. It is her clothes rather than her views that are of interest here:

“Lauren Booth appeared on This Morning claiming that the cause of the recent spate of terror attacks was because of drugs and not Islam religion.

The half sister of former Prime Minister Tony Blair's wife Cherie, 49, who converted to Islam in 2010 following the breakdown of her first marriage, blamed the atrocities on 'young, disenfranchised drug addicts'. 'The Westminster bomber was known to take drugs...the Tunisia bomber took drugs, the Paris attacker took drugs,' Lauren claimed.

The colours and the butterfly are familiar. Just a coincidence?

Dame Judi Dench in blue and orange

A very good picture of Judi Dench – as herself for once:



Much of the filming of her film Victoria and Abdul was done at Osborne House, the holiday home of Victoria and Albert on the Isle of Wight.

This film is being used in a new campaign to attract tourists to the island:

Charles Fort mosaic
This is in Kinsale, Ireland. It has no connection with Charles Fort the writer on unexplained phenomena: it is at and of Charles Fort, which was once a stronghold that protected Kinsale Harbour from a possible French invasion. It was named after King Charles II.

Theresa May in blue and orange in June

After the disastrous snap general election:



"Theresa May leaves Conservative HQ this morning as fellow Tories said she should consider standing aside after the 'dreadful' campaign she fought"

Yes, there are many shades of orange and orange/red. They may well look different on different devices too.
