[ in the second aged up casting with rosamund, i had to keep her maiden name for spoiler purposes, but just know she's happily married and has kids at this point 🤭 i almost put the different surname there and i was like "nO, DON'T SPOIL IT—" and as for the 'occupation' parts, you can probably tell i ran out of ideas for the last two without spoiling anything and also not knowing how the series ends... who knows? maybe hawkins was destroyed? sometimes i imagine that it became a kind of 'museum' for what went on, and the town is like one big exhibition, and some big company is commercialising what happened. ]

[ also i'm gonna have to include this bonus gif of rosamund at the bottom, because it's just FULFILLING my headcanons about cath being a nurse/midwife: ]
