Michael Gambon talks Icelandic scenery in his new television series, “Fortitude”. The 12-part series is about a close-knit Arctic community, living in the town of Fortitude, whose lives are rocked by a dramatic, mysterious murder. This is the first violent crime to ever occur in the quiet town, and it exposes many of the residents’ secrets. Gambon plays Henry Tyson, a wildlife photographer who only has a few weeks left to live.

Jo has written about a lot of strong women in her work, but fans typically only cite Hermione (and maybe Ginny, if they’re feeling charitable) as her feminist characters. Love Ginny and Hermione as I do, there are so many fantastic women in the series who don’t get enough credit for being brave, smart, and strong. Do you really think Jo would only write a couple of characters to be feminist icons? In my opinion, every woman in the series has something to teach us about being independent, courageous, and wise. In Jo’s world, feminism isn’t just for the bold young warriors: Mothers and professors and fangirls can be feminists, too.
