Glad that the halt is only temporary. Sorry that those two are under the weather. Feel better, John & Blair.

Hope they get well soon, I think they’re both pretty invested in the show and I suspect they’d hate it if they had any protracted illness affect production.
Roco, are there any details on what they’ve come down with? If it’s just something like the flu, then especially for John I’d suggest they “bring wood and oil!!” to keep him warm by the fire (sorry, couldn’t resist a *really* weak excuse for a Denethor reference
)

Underseer, the only additional bit is that Noble is said to be “under the weather”. Will keep you updated if we hear anything though.

Oh god get well soon guys!
And Roco I agree with the others, perhaps you could slide a ‘temporarily’ into that headline?!
I thought the season had been cancelled. No joke.

Aw, hope they get well soon but it’s good production is willing to stop. Although…does this mean walter AND nina are characters that will be appearing for definitive scenes during the season opening episodes…maybe they have intense scenes and, ok I’m getting carried away.

I saw the title and bursted in tears.
What a luck that articles have more than titles!
