Hello, I was wondering if you could help me make sense of the following exchange. After watching that scene where Crowley tries drowning his grief in whiskey, I tweeted "The Talisker Talisker!" (which happens to be a reference to the BCC Radio 4 show Cabin Pressure), and was a little confused when Douglas Mackinnon retweeted it with the following comment: "Look out for the ridge outside the window in heaven!" What do you think he meant?
answered:
Hiya.
Talisker is the reference to The Isle of Skye:
Mackinnon is very proud of being from Scotland’s Isle of Skye, and inserted references to his home area wherever he could. An Isle of Skye shop is near Aziraphale’s Soho bookshop, called Skye Suits. Crowley’s drink of choice to drown his sorrows in Episode 5 is the Isle of Skye’s most famous brand, Talisker Whisky. When turning on the radio in his Bentley, Crowley hears the “Just a Minute” host present an upcoming topic, the Isle of Skye, before a demon hijacks the broadcast. And so on. (x)
This is the Heaven:
And this is in all likelihood the Isle of Skye :)
