The YouTube Affair by Thebigbluemeany (PG-13)
Fandom: THE MAN FROM UNCLE
Pairing: Napoleon/Illya
Vidder on LJ: unknown
Vidder Website: Thebigbluemeany on Youtube
Why this must be watched: I couldn't choose just one vid to rec because there have been so many great ones coming out lately. I think you have to be blind to not catch the subtext present in the show seen through a slash lens - there's a lot of quick edits, but you just can't miss all the looks and touches and insinuating lines. With the choice of song ("I've Got You Babe" by Sonny and Cher, cute canonical nod and so appropriate to the 60's atmosphere) there was a risk of not pacing things well, but the fast cuts don't feel forced or awkward at all. There's a nice nod to the Return reunion, too.
