tbh, the best thing to do is get one of the figure, but that's, uh, impossible to do properly, given the nature of the thing. I've included one for completeness' sake. (I guess you could do one from the end, but that's both atypical and not a great shot imo.)

I think it's 1>2>3>4 for me. 3 would be the best, imo, if it was more legible at thumbnail size. But it's damn hard to see properly. Najawin 01:56, 25 May 2024 (UTC)

I think I agree on liking 1. Something with putatively-middle-aged-Ruby and Mad Jack/Roger could work, though…--Scrooge MacDuck 01:58, 25 May 2024 (UTC)
Agreed on "the woman would be good but alas" and I also think 1 works well - CodeAndGin | 🗨 | 02:07, 25 May 2024 (UTC)
I agree with 1>2>3>4. Bongo50 15:17, 25 May 2024 (UTC)

My vote also goes to #1. Fractal 22:31, 25 May 2024 (UTC)

Throwing three of my own into the ring. I saw people saying how an image of the woman sounds like a given but is not ideal, so I thought maybe the woman with Ruby in the foreground could work. WaltK 23:53, 25 May 2024 (UTC)
Don't like any of those tbh. As much as I adore Gibson already, the back of her head is Not Great for a thumbnail. Najawin 00:39, 26 May 2024 (UTC)
I think I'd probably rank them 1>2>3>7>6>5>4 The preceding unsigned comment was added by Bongolium500 (talk • contribs) .
Oops. Forgot to sign. Sorry about that. Bongo50 20:12, 26 May 2024 (UTC)

Well, to choose from what we already had, I guess 1 is the best option. 3 might work, but the cotton of the circle is so thin that it's a little hard to make out without englarging. WaltK 00:42, 27 May 2024 (UTC)

So, #1 it is? Fractal 09:03, 28 May 2024 (UTC)
It should surely be one of the characters approaching the mysterious woman, before running away, or else older Ruby with the glasses, since it's really a story about her (and it's a recognisable look, exclusive to this episode).

I like number #8. I there's a lot of empty space there, but that's what gives the episode its uneasy atmosphere. #1 maybe easily recognisable, but it doesn't really reflect the episode in the same way as the woman standing 73 yards away. 66 Seconds 09:54, 31 May 2024 (UTC)
3>8>4, it's just bad at thumbnail size still. Najawin 11:55, 31 May 2024 (UTC)
Including 8, it would be 1>2>3>8>7>6>5>4 for me. Bongo50 16:52, 31 May 2024 (UTC)
6 is the best on paper, to me, but I feel like we can find a better shot with a similar composition. Otherwise, 1 gets my vote, from among the current options (1-8).

Oh yes, and 8 is a very strong contender. Non-traditional, but entirely fits this story, so long as it can be read well enough at thumbnail.

Oh 8, no doubt about it. Dewinter 17:19, 31 May 2024 (UTC)

Name of the pub

Does anyone know what it is? I know we literally see the sign, but it's hard to read for obvious reasons. And I don't recall it ever being spoken out loud. WaltK 04:52, 26 May 2024 (UTC)

Never mind I got it. 86.11.223.35talk to me 04:54, 26 May 2024 (UTC)
