@JamesTheo No. Twitter is famously tribal. One of the reasons I’ve stepped away from Twitter is the pile ons, particularly groups of men against women. It’s vile to watch.
@RodneyMarshall1@champ_phil Yes. They were thoroughly invested in Jude’s brutal end. They dithered with the possibility of Judd losing everything in the miners’ strike but decided a swift, violent crushing was the best option.
@RodneyMarshall1@champ_phil They went as far as discussing a sequel, where Billy goes to find another bird, the farmer sees him, asks him to do a bit of dry stone walling, offers him a caravan at the bottom of the field, leaves him the farm in his will, while Judd is crushed to death in a mining accident.
@RodneyMarshall1@champ_phil … another bird. They kept ferrets, and terriers, they saw the ending as sad but not tragic. They loved animals but were not sentimental about them.
