Oh God I love Toby De Silva and I miss Toby De Silva. I can't believe that Nick Jordan came into it just to be ill and sort of get rid of Toby, when THE OPPOSITE should have been true. I go through periods of forgetting about Toby and Nick Jordan, and then periods of remembering and thinking about AUs where Nick is a vampire who gets captured by a vampire-hunting sect that Toby's sort of involved with and they want him to tell them about other vampires, and just to mess with them he tells them he'll only talk to Toby. And thus follows Toby's attempts to interrogate him while Nick messes him around and plots his escape and sort of seduces him through the bars, and then they FALL IN LOVE. I went looking for old Casualty episodes on Youtube tonight, and I found tons of them. Here is the part of the first episode where they meet (starting at 2.47). OH GOD. TOBY JUST FREEZES AND NICK JUST STARES AT HIM AND DRAGS THE PAIN OUT AND THEN LATER SMIRKS ABOUT HAVING FOOLED A YOUNG DOCTOR AND TAUNTED OTHERS WITH HIS BAG OF MYSTERY. Oh God. They do have plenty of good pairings on TV and in soaps sometimes, but I still can't help feeling they MISSED A TRICK with Toby and Nick.

Toby's SO PRETTY. I can't believe he hasn't just been on TV or in plays CONSTANTLY since leaving Casualty. He didn't even get to be Moriarty in Sherlock, and THAT COULD HAVE BEEN AMAZING. Oh. ALSO THERE IS ANOTHER MATTHEW NEEDHAM OUT THERE STARRING IN PLAYS AND SUCH. WHAT THE HELL IS THAT? It makes tracking him down VERY DIFFICULT. I ONLY ASK TO KNOW WHAT PLAYS HE IS IN, IF ANY. That's all dudes. God.
