Hi Wax Chattels! So ‘Gillian’ is about Gillian Anderson… what’s your favourite Gillan memory or moment?
Peter: For me, it’s in The Fall. She’s sitting at a table in a restaurant and this guy comes up to her she has no interest in speaking to so just cuts him right down to size, keeping quiet and composed but reducing him to this puddle on the floor. It’s incredible.
Amanda: It is way too hard to pick just one moment… I’ll just add the fact that she is generally super badass. The lyrics reference her in X-Files, The Fall and Hannibal; there are many moments in each of those shows where she quietly devastates everyone else in the scene. Also, something else that stands out to me is Gillian off-screen. She’s been very vocal about the gender disparity in her industry and equality issues in general — things that are important to me. I think recently on Twitter she asked fans to donate time/money to charity for her birthday?
