If you know me personally you'll know that my favourite TV show of all time is The Sopranos. There is no greater TV
show.

On the bookshelf in my office you'll find my prized possession.

I've never been one of those people that gets deeply affected by celebrity deaths. I'm only good at emotional stuff if I
know people, and only then if they are really close to me. That said, it really hit me hard in the feelings when I first
heard about the unexpected and shock death of James Gandolfini.

I've been a fan of James Gandolfini forever. I've seen nearly every performance, from Virgil in True Romance through
Cousin Marv in The Drop. As good as his movie characters and performances were they were nothing compared to his TV
performance in The Sopranos.

James Gandolfini was born to play Tony Soprano.

I cannot tell you how many times I've watched this show from start to end. This show is special. There are so many
amazing characters in this show. Ask any Sopranos fan to pick their favourite characters, and I bet you get different
answers every time.

I love so many of the characters in this show, Paulie 'Walnuts' Gualtieri (Tony Sirico) definitely deserves a special
mention, but my favourite characters were Tony Soprano (James Gandolfini) & Silvio Dante (Steven Van Zandt). 

I've been searching for some artwork for my office for around 2 years now.  Today I finally hung this:

I agonised for a long time over this decision, but ultimately this was the perfect choice.  My two favourite characters,
Tony smiling, counting money and Silvio doing the Godfather impression that makes me laugh so much. 

My office is now complete. I mean...Look at it!
