Corrie and Emmerdale are doing actors in masks and so on. It’s most evident when they do scenes together and you can see them keeping a distance from each other instead of acting normally. I don’t know about Eastenders as my 89 year old mother considers it “miserable cockney pish”. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, I couldn't tell you the last time I saw any of them, maybe the EastEnders Christmas special about ten years ago, at the behest of my sister in law. The idea of them all sitting in their houses, or baking bread for episode after episode doesn't sound any less entertaining than the usual output!

3fingersreid Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 How do individual species know how to choose the same species to mate with ? For example obviously a sparrow wouldn’t mate with a pigeon but how can a male blackbird tell the difference between a female blackbird and a female thrush which are similar ?

They're similar, but different enough. Not only can creatures recognise other members of the same species, but they can tell which are more desirable than others as mates. The need to pass one's genes to the next generation is one of the most powerful forces in nature, probably second only to survival. Any creature that's daft enough to mate with an animal of a different species will fail to pass along its genes and becomes one of nature's losers. It would be definitely eligible for a Darwin Award!

To add on to AJ's answer, with birds in particular, a lot of them have evolved certain plumage, songs and mating rituals which helps them mate with their own kind. That said, there's a species of black duck in the USA which is becoming rare as the females are often podgered by mallards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Locky Posted January 20, 2021 Share Posted January 20, 2021 Anyone ever been to the Faroe Islands? Why are they so isolated from Scotland despite being so close? Googled the distance as the crow flies from Shetland to Faroes, and it claims to be only 360km, however to travel from one set of islands to the other without a direct boat, it's a 76 hour round trip according to Google which involves getting a ferry to mainland UK, driving the length of it, then a ferry to France, driving across Belgium, Netherlands and Germany, all the way to the top of Denmark, then a ferry again the rest of the way. On top of that, the ferry route apparently passes right through the middle of Orkney and Shetland. I know the Faroe's are part of the Danish empire, but given the proximity to mainland UK, it just seems mad that there's not better travel links between the 2.

I see you looked at the exact same trip that I found myself a few months ago Was interested in going in the future, and assumed it would be an easy flight, but it usually involves Edinburgh > Amsterdam, then Amsterdam > Copenhagen or Billund, then Copenhagen or Billund > Vágar. A nice casual 14 hour one way trip, to get to somewhere that really isn't that far away! Having a quick look, I found this on the Wikipedia Article about them: As part of Mercantilism, Denmark maintained a monopoly over trade with the Faroe Islands and forbade their inhabitants trading with others (e.g. the geographically close Britain). The trade monopoly in the Faroe Islands was abolished in 1856, after which the area developed as a modern fishing nation with its own fishing fleet. The national awakening from 1888 initially arose from a struggle to maintain the Faroese language and was thus culturally oriented, but after 1906 it became more political with the foundation of political parties of the Faroe Islands. Maybe it's just a historical holdover? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it's just a historical holdover? Yeah, I remember when Hibs drew some Faroese team a couple of seasons ago in Europe, the papers printed how awkward it was to get there. I mean I can't imagine there's a huge gap in the market on our part, what with the Faroes only having like 30,000 inhabitants, but it just seems mad that a group of islands so close to us, could be so inaccessible. I'd imagine should Scotland ever be independent, they'd probably try and build closer relations with the Nordic countries even more, but that's a debate I don't wanna get into. I'd love to go to the Faroes one day. I was in Iceland in 2019 which was brilliant. The Faroes just fascinate me too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the Edinburgh flights have been on the go for a couple of years. I’m pretty sure the ferry (Norrona?) used to make a stop in Lerwick but it hasn’t for years. There just can’t be the market.

Boof Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 The Faroe Islands or Føroyar in Faroese, is an autonomous territory within the kingdom of Denmark. With a population of 52,703 as of September 2020 it's more densely populated than @Locky suggests. I have no idea if Faroese folk get as miffed about being referred to as 'the Faroes' as Shetlanders do upon hearing 'the Shetlands' but I generally don't do it just in case Yes, there used to be Atlantic Airways with their Faroe-Shetland-London link. The Shetland leg only lasted from 2006-2008. Not sure what other routes Atlantic may now fly - COVID being a bit of a bugger for any checking. For Shetlanders it might be easiest to fly Sumburgh-Bergen-Vágar. Mainland Scots might find ABZ/EDI - Keflavik (Iceland) - Vágar the simplest...unless there IS a direct route. The passenger ship, Norröna, did call into Lerwick heading to Bergen on its eastbound journey and Tórshavn going back west again but that ceased at the end of the summer timetable in 2007. Our Council had invested into their ferry firm with one of the conditions being a regular call into Lerwick but the port charges were so high that the company eventually jacked it in. I can't recall if there was any redress financially - knowing our Council, probably not 🙄. Never visited the place myself but it IS on the bucket list.

Boof Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 Whether their geology permits it more easily or they just have a bit more impetus to get things done the Faroese tunnel network is something else. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-55195390 Shetland, meanwhile, has a grand total of none. Lots of hot air spouted over the decades and an ageing ferry fleet but nary a tunnel in sight.

Yeah - those guys had a support vessel for the non-rowing shifts. Quite an impressive feat, I'd have to say. Even just going out for our practices we're always lifejacketed up. I have never once felt any apprehension though one of our usual crew is a bit of a feartie We'll often just have a leisurely row once our so-called race practice is done by going into caves etc. He's always a bit "Okay - that's far enough..." Also nice to see the wildlife too - a couple of years ago my crew (minus me because I was selling a car ) had a pod of orcas around the boat. Also seen basking sharks, seals, porpoises, otters, all sorts of birds...maybe gets a km or two nearer Faroe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
