To not know who from the Musketeers I'd boff first.

[MalcolmTuckersMistress]

It's doing my head in. 5 leading actors and I fancy ALL of them. I tried to pick the one I fancied most when he was a simple cartoon dog and that was Aramis, but just one look as sexy Richelieu in his black cloak of evil and I'm a gooey mess.

It's turned me into such a tart, but IABU to want all of them. No? Ok thanks.

I suppose I should have guessed

I can see it now, yay!!!

I have to say, I prefer the sullen leaning and glowering if I'm honest.

errr??..... not actually just Athos. After all, life is for living

But he is far superior to the rest and my husband to be absolute fave.

And a girl's got to keep her options open. What if he gets killed by whatsername???

Tbh the musketeers all look a bit funny. Arsmis looks like a Cuban pimp. D'Artagnian looks like a girl. Athis - full moon face. Pothos - bean stalk giant.

Now the Cardinal is neither to big or too fat or too round. He's also rich so can afford soap and weekly daily baths. He also can read and write and knows a lot of sex tricks he's learned from various hookers over the years.

Actually, it was Me who found that particular clip, the Unloved clip, once the you/tube link had originally been posted, by , LetUsPrey, I think.

Unloved= the one where Athos gets executed. The one where he quivers.
It us my favourite clip so far.
But it is a you-tube clip.

I assume that this episode must be episode 8,9, or 10.
But whilst we wait, Hannah brilliantly found a still picture of it.

No. only Athos for me.
Dh and Athos.
No other men feature for me.

By the way OP, we are 500 quotes. Get us to 1000, then you can start thread 2. And start it, in any topic you like.

Agree with Drink. They all look like the need a good bath. And a good meal. They are a bit skinny.

Tbh the musketeers all look a bit funny

I prefer my men to look a bit funny. That's why I'm not keen on D'artagnan, he's too pretty and his hair doesn't ever move.

And yes, they probably all stank and were infested with lice, gloss over that though

I thought the execution clip was from the 1st or 2nd episode, the other 2 saved the day

Was it? Episode 1 or 2? Was it? I can't remember. Will have to go back and look.

Funny looking? Yes. I like odd looking men. I like unusual features, wierd eyes, scars that tell a story. I can't tell you some of the men I like. You would then know how truely wierd I am!!
I like rough, odd looking men. No pretty boys.

I my list is probably quite odd too. I do not like pretty men at all.

It's episode 1 I may have given up all pretence of working and be re-watching it

Tbh a lot of crushes are odd. Take Peter Capaldi for instance..

We build these things up in our heads. It's all very school girl fantasy stuff. You almost talk yourself into thinking they're god like because you get carried away with your dirty thoughts.

That's why DrinkFeck can look at the musketeers and see what she sees. And why I and many others can look at capaldi and think wtf? Some bony old bloke with a pointy face, and legs that look like they'd snap if he tried to lift you up against the wall. still do him as Richelieu though

Oblomov - I found that clip as I was just googling Tom Burke/Athos sex faces .
I got to a very small clip, that one of the aforementioned obsessives had created - about 3 seconds long. From there I just pressed buttons until I had an image. Pure luck it was that exact moment tbh.

so stop trying to take credit for my sex face p.s Athos doesn't do married women

Stinklebell - sounds like you're having the same kind of busy day I am.

Ah well! It is Wanky Wednesday after all. when in Rome

Bo idea what you're in about, Hannah. Capaldi is very beautiful although I have to admit he does look like death warned up. He needs to put on a stone or two. Funnily I thought he was ghastly when younger. 40plus and I 'm reaching for mop-- can appreciate him.

Am finishing work.
Dh stays away Wednesday nights.
On way home, to sky+ catch up , download again, all episode up-to-date, which I had already watched and deleted.
Will bath ds's at 4pm(!!), feed them dinner, and put them on x box till bedtime.
With strict instructions not to disturb mummy, unless there is a world disaster.
And I will watch all episodes again.
Pause and replay on all Athos bits. Searching particularly for quivering execution scene.

Obsessed ? Moi? Quite badly, it would seem!!

Twenty one pages?

TWENTY ONE PAGES?

Holy crap. When I was a lass watching the Muskahounds with my sister we could never have predicted this tsunami of blouse-lust.

Can't say it does much for me tbh. Breeches and all that. Give me a buttoned up Victorian coming undone anyday... if anybody fancies a Ripper Street shag chat meet me in the opium den and we'll talk. Jerome's all mine though ...

That sounded very serious! It was meant to be lighthearted sort off.

In my defence, I'm self employed and work from home - I'm letching in private and wasting my own time

Oblomov quivery execution scene is at 51 minutes - you're welcome

I've just retrieved all the episodes for future use - thank you Sky+ undelete

I rewatched the episode 4 twice and this evening I'm back to episode 1. That's where the cardinal lies is the most.

I'm self-employed too.

Clearly we are savvy, self-possessed, feminist women.

Ooh, we made the Most Active list.

Haha! at Oblomov

Just give them sweets and crisps for dinner. Feck cooking! Sure at this age, it's all about calories not nutrition isn't it?

Not denying a certain hotness to Victorianyness, but we would need a focus point!
You've obviously been very lazy! Get the den set up, viewing material listed, then we can talk.
Except Sundays cos we're all busy.
Um actually make that most days. Being a muskeperv, is a full time occupation it would seem

Can we start in 5 weeks time when series ends??

MorrisZapp did you hear that Ripper Street is coming back?

Not sure I can allow you to have Flynners though.

Ripper Street is coming back?? Oh sweet lord, how will my button cope? (with all the recording, I mean)

I heard lots of rumours, apparently they were thinking of making it independently and selling it. Will have a google.

Sorry, back to topic...

Swords! Shirts! Cod piece! Rrrrrarrrrr......

It was officially announced today!
