My Theory About Maggie And Nina

A note about the code from Crowley's safe.

Crowley dials the numbers on his safe: 31 10 and 66, or maybe 67. I've been thinking for a long time that these numbers mean something, because we can see them well. If you have your own version, please share it with me. My theory is that the last digit is 67 - that is, 1967 - it was this year that Aziraphale brought holy water for Crowley in this thermos, which is now in the safe. Maybe that day was October 31st, or is it just that Crowley loves Halloween?

This theory seems pretty logical, but while I was thinking about it, I went through some funny and slightly crazy versions. Here is one of them: 311067 is a color in hex format. Here it is:

We know that Crowley and Aziraphale's joint miracle was violet. I don't think the authors have complicated the safe code so much, but there is definitely something to think about the meaning of colors in the film - namely red, blue, violet, gold. These colors definitely have a semantic load in the series.

Red-blue reflections.

There are a lot of red and blue colors in the film. Often these two colors mark opposites and/or couples in one way or another. Crowley and Aziraphale, Sergeant Shadwell and Madame Tracy, Adam and Pepper, Maggie and Nina's shops, and so on. A cup of coffee and an apple of Eden. My interpretation of these colors. I assume that the color symbolism is taken from the Christian religion of the Renaissance.

In this case, the Red color means everything earthly, sensual, full of life, sexual, chaotic. Sometimes it's something aggressive (Anathema saw the red aura of an angry villager). But aggression can also be righteous bravery like Pepper, who stood up to the War. The color red does not appear symbolically in Hell and does not directly mean evil. The Blue color means everything unearthly, reasonable, calm. This is order, discipline, loyalty and stability. The blue color also does not symbolize Heaven and does not directly mean good.

I would add here the fact about two Christian saints - St. George and St. Andrew. Saint Andrew is the patron saint of the Scottish flag. The flag of Scotland has a white oblique cross on a blue background. And St. George the Victorious (the man who defeated the snake /dragon) patronizes the flag of England (this flag has a red cross on a white background. Saint George and Saint Andrew are also opposites of each other - one is a warrior (red), the other is a martyr (blue), respectively. I think it would be interesting to see these characters in the second coming?

One more color thought. Here is a screenshot. (S1E3 [54:24])

This is an image of a monitor in an office at a nuclear reactor. At the moment, there is no fuel in the nuclear reactor, there is a yellow candy that Adam placed there. The monitor shows that this yellow candy gives energy by splitting into blue and red colors. Yellow (gold) color in Christianity is a Divine color, the color of divine energy and grace. People who see it say "it's impossible". They witnessed a miracle. I associate this episode with another one.

(all subtitles are original) In this scene our angel and demon exchanged bodies and Death itself says that it is "ineffable". Death stated that it was a miracle.

I will also mention White color in my color reflections. He appears in the series four times (something I noticed.) White in this theory means purity, innocence and/or sacrifice.

1.The third baby in the S1E1. He was wrapped in a white blanket. He was a victim of circumstances. I haven't read the book, but fish were mentioned in the movie in the context of the baby. These few little facts lead me to think that this child may appear in the third season. And he will play a direct role in the second coming, as the new incarnate Christ (the fish is a symbol of Christ and also the white color his symbol too.)

2. In the theater with a red interior (1941), Aziraphale takes out a white handkerchief and theatrically waves it. I think it reflects the purity of his intentions to help his demon. And also the fact that he is the only one in this "vicious" place (where illegal alcohol is sold and people stare at half-naked girls) is a pure immaculate soul.

3. Gabriel wears a white fur coat when he goes out to the demons in the second season. He obviously intended to sacrifice himself for the sake of saving people.

4. Muriel - everything is obvious here. She's a blank slate. I really hope she doesn't fall victim to any dramatic circumstances in S3. I love Muriel).

There is also a Violet color. I have already talked about him a lot in my other posts, for example in the post about Gabriel's eyes or about the joint miracle of Azikro. I'll just mention a funny little fact here. When Aziraphale gets inside Madame Tracy, her sleeves turn violet (because she herself is marked in red, and the angel is blue, respectively.)

Violet color appears once more at the end of S2E6. When we see that Shax and Furfur are up to something together, they unite. And we see them disappearing into a violet haze. I think we need to find out exactly what this couple is up to in S3.

I assume that the violet color here means unification, union, expansion, reaching a new level.

the whims of Aziraphale rubric

Oh, Aziraphale, your bookshop burned down, I'm so sorry!

Crowley, you'll cry about your car later! Go do what I can do myself, but I want you to do it!

He's so incredibly handsome! At the same time, 100 things are happening in me - I want to stare at him forever without blinking, I want to eat him, I want to be him, I want to become Aziraphale and kiss him. I know this is an unhealthy topic. I hope when I write another 10 or 20 posts with such nonsense, I will be able to heal my heart.

"I'm very good at forgivenness"

Yes, we know! -_- Please stop doing this!

It's always too late

An excerpt from Neil Gaiman's book "The Ocean at the End of the Lane":

"I said, "I'm sorry I let go of your hand, Lettie." "Oh, hush," she said. "It's always too late for sorries, but I appreciate the sentiment. And next time, you'll keep hold of my hand no matter what she throws at us." I nodded. The ice chip in my heart seemed to warm then, and melt, and I began to feel whole and safe once more."

I hope the next time, whenever and wherever it is, they will hold each other's hands.

What grows in your (British) garden? Angels, Shakespeare, Spathiphyllum and Conceptualization.

I took some screenshots from the "Blood and Ice Cream" trilogy, they are not in chronological order:

I hope you will watch these films: Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz, The World's End. They're definitely worth it. When you watch, keep GO in mind, maybe it will be more interesting this way.

P.s. Not all the matches that I found are shown in the screenshots. There's also a silly Shakespeare play that the characters are watching. A mime depicting a golden statue Dude in black, pretend to be Death A car that goes into a firestorm some small things (like posters or a goat)

Addition! To the trilogy of Blood and ice cream, it is necessary to add the film Burke and Hare (2010). In this movie, two guys steal dead bodies from a cemetery in Edinburgh (at first) and sell it to a doctor who studies anatomy and tries to save lives. The first body is carried in a barrel for pickled herring)) Simon Pegg plays in all these films (he was also a guest actor in the series "Staged")

- No, no, we're not giving her a lift. - Hey, she can hear you. Is it decent? - I'm not jealous at all! - What? - What?

- Aziraphale, you speak Chinese pretty well, why haven't you mastered French yet? After all, French is simpler than Chinese. - Well I don't know. The Chinese have never tried to chop off my head. And also, you know, that French executioner pawed my neck! - In fairness, I note the neck is very magnetic. It beckons to touch.. - Is this some kind of French joke? - Yes it is. And you would understand its meaning if you finally learned French.
