Like... not everything has to be straight or gay. Not everything even has to have anything to do with that kind of relationship. There might be no straight explanation, but that doesn't mean it's automatically gay. There's no straight explanation for the sun. Because straightness is totally unrelated to the sun. The same applies in some cases here. (Although I do agree with you for some of it)
@@sally675 I'd think my meaning was pretty clear. A lot of this really has nothing to do with attraction or romantic relationships, thus it is neither straight or gay or any other orientation.
no one said there was one. there doesn't need to be. because firstly straight isn't the default and secondly their sexuality isn't even relevant here a lot of the time
Idk why it’s always Ben but he said that his reasoning for the Captain was that he grew up with a more military all boys background and it was considered a man’s greatest weakness so he wanted the Captain to have (in his eyes) a crippling weakness.

I really want ghosts to have another season in which we get to learn more about Cap’s death and also more about him and Havers. Like I want Cap to suggest to Alison to try and find Havers and she does and he’s a ghost in a cemetery or war memorial or something not far from button house and Alison talks to Havers and for it all to be super sweet when she goes back and tells the Captain how Havers is a ghost and how he came back to England after the war was over to reunite with their battalion (aka came to reunite with the Captain because they’re both fruity icons) but sadly died because of maybe like a disease before he could. I need that gay angsty cuteness in my life.
i've gone from "oh i wont deep Ghosts, its a comedy, oh but the Captain is defo gay, but whatever i wont latch onto it like i normally do with other gay/potentially gay characters in other tv shows bc im gay and my family dont validate me so tv does" to literally crying at the music of Havers leaving and binge-watching what im claiming to be the fruitiest show ever, Yonderland
Yonderland was *so* weird and wonderful! I'm envious of people young enough to have discovered it as kids but fear it might've been a little much for me at the time
