Hey thanks for looking at this old piece, I might re-write it. But do you really think Liddell would be fine with a gay actor? I'm recalling Duncan Hamilton referring to Liddell as "the devout Christian who preached in congregational churches and meeting halls about scripture, temperance, morality and Sunday observance.”

Liddell doesn't leave much commentary on sex specifically, but a gay actor inhabiting his identity would surely have been startling to him, and most disagreeable.
