The whole of When to Die is stretched (see the infobox image for Brian Williams (When to Die) to see how badly) so I would support a new image from the YouTube video. -- Saxon (✉️) 15:10, June 8, 2020 (UTC)
Problem is, while it's higher-quality footage, Shadows of Doubt also has a "webcam template" thingie overlaid over it the entire time. Giles is also facing the camera for most of it. The current image is far from ideal, but I'm not sure how the Wiki policy calculus works out between a somewhat distorted, low-quality image in the right pose and without any overlays, versus a non-distorted, higher-quality image that isn't facing in quite the right direction and has a slight overlay. --Scrooge MacDuck 15:15, June 8, 2020 (UTC)
