Feliz navidad! Come play Musketeer-festive namechange roulette with a group of women who like to talk a lot about men's thighs!!! Among other parts.

Yes Fancy you are right.
I'm getting confused now.
Dolokhov does. He goes to a dinner with .... Nikolai Rostov? And that's where Pierre gets all upset and the duel results.

Or is there a previous one?

I can't remember. I think I need a W&P summary. It's been 20 years since I studied it!

BangDogMerrilyOnHigh · 30/12/2015 13:57

I'm a little rusty myself as well obs, but there is a party that Pierre goes to early on that is rather lively - with drunken bets/dares & Dolokov is there being all daredevil. Can't remember enough of the book to know whether that is a necessary scene or not. Agree that the soiree scene you mention is a big one though - would make a very good opening scene

We3KingyOfOblomovAre · 30/12/2015 14:02

Maybe we will get to see Dolokhov with Nikolai, Dolokhov at war, Dolokhov at the party, and then Dolokhov at the duel, all within parts 1 and 2 then?

Here's hoping.

You know, every time I see that pic of tb as dolochops, all tiny on my phone, it looks like he's got a pair of bright red mickey mouse ears. (The epaulettes.) Makes me laugh every time.

Spooky but I seem to be logged in with my old user name.

AnneEtAramis · 30/12/2015 21:26

Obs, really looking forward to W&P and your expertise. How many episodes is it?

I just skimmed the last page so love to all.

OhComeLetUsAdoreHBFs · 30/12/2015 21:49

Evening wenches.

It's six parts according to the Sky+ app. I'm looking forward to James Norton in it.

BangDogMerrilyOnHigh · 30/12/2015 22:05

Evening wenches

Am very much looking forward to W&P too. But what will Santi be in next? Much as I enjoyed Patagonia, I'd like to see him in something soon my bed

OhComeLetUsAdoreHBFs · 31/12/2015 08:24

Morning wenches.

I'd like to see Santi in something else too me

IssyStark · 31/12/2015 09:49

Morning all! All very sunny and calm here this morning after howling gales last night. Even thinking about putting stuff out on the line.

Was looking forward to a morning of dying my hair while catching up with the AgathaChristie season on Radio 4 Extra and some gits are doing a den of service attack on the BBC and everything is down. Leave our Beeb alone you bastards!

So apart from my broken dreams of wallowing in golden age detective fiction, how is everyone else faring this New Year's Eve?

IssyStark · 31/12/2015 09:52

P.s. Also looking forward to W&P (and also Endeavour - could drown in Roger Allam's voice)

ChevreuseRoastedByAnOpenFire · 31/12/2015 10:04

Morning

Have a lovely time madame

Am planning a day of decluttering etc - very festive!

We3KingyOfOblomovAre · 31/12/2015 11:45

Have a good time Madame.

We all have an afternoon siesta - make the boys have one, so that we can go out dancing tonight.

Badders123 · 31/12/2015 15:06

I don't like it when all the wenches leave :(
Been to sils.
Come home.
Taken decs down which of course means I have to dust and Hoover hasn't been done for 3 weeks
DC are off to pils tomorrow for the day so I am going to try and get Dh to agree to buy new sofas :)

WickedWenchOfTheNorth · 31/12/2015 15:33

Afternoon wenches. Hope everywench is feeling good Smile

I'm chilling on the couch, tired, think I might fall asleep soon Confused

ApriClausIsComingToTown · 31/12/2015 15:52

Hello all! I'm bored. I have lots of jobs I want to do, but can't find the motivation. I like Obs' idea of a siesta, but every time I do that the phone or doorbell rings, or I get called to do something. I was going for a walk but now it's pissing down.

I don't really like New Year's Eve, you don't know what you're welcoming in, so we don't go out, but we do stay up to watch the fireworks on TV. Is it Wine o'clock yet?
