Hello there lovely Mumsnet HQ types.
I'm sure you must have heard of us dedicated wenches propping up the bar in the Swagger Inn Tavern up the road. Well, you see, the thing is, we feel a bit let down by the BBC as they have catered for fans all over the world for the upcoming (we will be) Series 2 of The Musketeers but have pretty much ignored us mad loyal stalkers fans.
In short, we would feel sooooo much better about being sidelined if you could to us the teensy favour of setting up a new emoticon for us to play with from Friday. Maybe a little [sword], [pauldron] or just a simple [fleur de lys]?
We would be forever grateful to you

Hi all,
You lot don't give up easily, do you? 
(Though not sure calling us twats helps the cause that much, Baddz!)
There was a whole other thread about this recently here
And here's what KateMN said on it:
But take heart young Wenches, there are plans afoot to allow new and exciting things to happen with emoticons. We're going to hold off on creating any new ones for now, but we'll keep your suggestion in mind for when the plans come into action.
The Woolly Huggers did indeed ask for a a vair long time ago. We created 
for them as we felt it more appropriate at the time.
The fact is, we can't have every emoticon asked for, as much as we'd love to - we know it will wind people up if there are too many.

Yes - but EIGHTY FOUR THOUSAND POSTS MN.
Right. If we're not going to get this - how about this proposal? Musketeers Series 2 starts Fri. They have done next to no promo in UK but lots in other countries. Their fans all over social meeeja have been complaining. MN, get em in for a web chat. Pllllleaseeeeee. Tell them about the 84,000 posts. Tell them we're their target market. Tell them we want recognition. You have got the 'pull' to do this for us. Let the BBC know Mumsnet makes it happen!
Their Exec producer is a lovely lovely lady called Jessica Pope. She's on Twitter 
We have always said she's an honorary wench.
[fleur de lys] MN, we love ya

We have always said she's an honorary wench.We're always open to proposals (so long as they're not emoticon-related, obvs) - so we're going to pass this one on to our webchat supremo and see what we can do.

One of them lives in London so easy to come in, and you could get Jess Pope in too to talk about how they have portrayed women in the series. Gwan MNHQ, it'd be amazing.
but bloody hell don't show them the threads

Oh - & MNHQ - if you need a Swagger Inn rep to attend your offices at any point, to help direct the right question to the correct Musketeer...... and who would drop her life at 10 minutes notice then you've found me
I might have to change my username first though.
