When
The Nevers first introduced Lord Massen, he seemed like your standard-issue, old-white-guy fearmonger. By using societal fear of the Touched to consolidate power around himself, and labeling the Touched and their turns as threats to national security, Lord Massen has been an enemy of Mrs. True, Penance, and the other inhabitants of St. Romaulda’s Orphanage from the start. He’s clearly working with other lords to plan some kind of consolidated action against the Touched; recall the paperwork they were reading through in last week’s episode “Ignition.” He has a decades-long friendship with Lavinia Bidlow, which perhaps suggests that he knows about her experiments with Dr. Hague and those human/cyborg things. I’m not saying he’s a good guy! But… does he have a point to be a little afraid of what the Touched can do? Especially now that whatever entity responsible for their powers is trying to make contact?

The Nevers James Norton and Tom Riley on sex, drugs, and birds
The Nevers is not. Fans of James Norton’s work as Anglican vicar Sidney Chambers on ITV’s popular period mystery drama might find his
Nevers turn as Hugo Swann, polyamorous vice lord, a bit jarring. But that’s part of the fun of the role, and of the actor’s choices overall. You never really know what you’re going to get.
In the clip above, we talk with Norton about his character’s lustful and shameful motivations, as well as the nature of sex work. We also chat up Tom Riley, who plays Swann’s on-screen bestie Augie Bidlow, about how the pair’s friendship developed and what it’s like to inhabit a bird.

Poor Mary. As we’ve gotten to learn more about the Touched, their turns fall into roughly two camps. As Mrs. True says to Bonfire Annie, there are the “formidable” turns, like her ability to control fire, or Mrs. True’s own ripplings (and I swear there is something else going on with her,
there has to be), or Lucy’s destructive ability. Those threatening undercurrents have benefits, especially in this new world in which the Turned are being hunted. Then there are the beneficial turns, like Horatio’s healing ability, Désireé’s truth-telling, and Penance’s manipulation of electrical currents.

Together, they run an orphanage financed by wealthy spinster Lavinia Bidlow (Olivia Williams), and face threats to their existence from multiple sources throughout society. There s Maladie, a serial killer giving the Touched a bad name around London. Then there s the mysterious Dr. Edmund Hague (Denis O Hare), rounding up the Touched for his disturbing experiments. And then there s the government: stodgy old white men who mostly despised women and their quest for equal rights anyway even before some women began to have superpowers. Subplots abound, as well: there s the underground sex club run by party boy Lord Hugo Swann, plus Detective Frank Mundi (Ben Chaplin) with his bad reputation and connection to the Touched opera singer, Mary Brighton (Eleanor Tomlinson).
