Swagger Inn 129: The One Where It Gets Real

[SparklesRedHotChileLeather]

"We're soldiers, Captain. We follow our orders wherever they may take us."

Well that's good to hear, Musketeers. Now on the floor & give me twenty.

Errrr, I mean - get your arses into gear & give us some promo. You've only got a MONTH. It's the final countdown wenches, let's do this!

I can't get it to work!!

And am I the only one who reads promo as porno?? Every time I see the OP I see 'give us some porno".

Badders, Mouse have you tried this link?

Thanks Helen, I got to Paris brutalised instead of just Tom talking at the beginning. I will keep trying with it.

Thank you Helen!!!
WELL
I have some thoughts;
They ALL look FAF
HOWEVER Wtaf is going on with howies hair!? It looks like my auntie Audrey's perm circa 1983!!
LOVE the fighty sweaty dirty look obv
Rupert Everett will be a GREAT baddie Marc warren watch how it should be done!
Athos looks so sexy I may have just squeeed a bit
Kingy looks hotter too is it the new wig!?
I disapprove of sylvie. Heartily.
The 2 other baddies intrigue me -I approve.
All in all...looks pretty good to me!

It's not a trailer though, is it?
Will it be on the Bbc website do you think?
I seem to remember series 1 had stiff like this on the programme page?

Yes it reminded me of those videos too badders

Totaaly agree on RE being a good baddie, he was fab in ep1 I thought

Yeah
I think that's what it is

Yes, exactly the sort of thing they had on the BBC website for the other series. And at www.bbceurope.com/benelux/programmas/the-musketeers - which incidentally, has some wonderful Google translations in the profiles of the actors:

Hugo out of the clothes went for an audience of millions as Guy in the Full Monty
Alexandra also made a trip to the movie with her portrayal of...
Ryan: Before he crawled into the skin of Louis XIII...
Santi: After his various roles on television and had played on stage, including a brief period on the shelves as Othello...
Tom Buke is an actor family from London...

and now I shall watch the video again...

Oh, also re. Sylvie. If it's any consolation Badders the actress is absolutely lovely. No consolation? Ah well, I suspected not.

consolation!???
Oh, Helen, it's like you don't know me at all :(
Consolation!?
No.
No it isn't.

helen - those are fab. I have fantasic mental pictures of Ali acting a part when she goes to the cinema, a little Santi sitting on a shelf & a naked Hugo attacking a huge audience

I will be livid for the whole bloody series, won't I?
😡

Badders just concentrate of projecting yourself into that character. Or just spend all os S3 shouting at the TV? Obviously, if you'd been in C17th Paris he would have been with you me.

Oh helen
I do love you, you deluded bint😊
Athos would be with ME
And I would destroy anyone who got in the way😤😬😠

💋

Oh, and Mouse re promo/porno

Working from home turns into WFH at the ^BoringOfficeJob* Which I always then read as WTF. I also have trouble with shopfitters/shoplifters

Mouse...I also read promo as porno wishful thinking 😉

I am getting more excited with every watch of that video. I had to make DS1 watch it too. His comment during our post-video discussion: "How can it be on sometime in May & the date not announced yet?"

HMMMMMMMMMM

Glad it's not just us that feels like that. Is there some disadvantage to announcing that info more than a week or two in advance?

Because we might forget it if they tell us too far in advance? #Obs'FuckwitSchool

I was akshully thinking about it... It all makes sense. S3 wouldn't have happened without foreign money; i.e. it's not really a BBC baby any more, it's more one they've been forced to foster for other countries, so BBCPress don't give a monkeys and can't be arsed with any promotion - hence the sterling efforts from JP and the production team on twitter to drip-feed publicity because that's the only way that anyone is going to know that S3 even exists, let alone then it might be screened on BBC3 at 2am on alternate Wednesday and Monday mornings soon.

The mind boggles really...
If not for JP (who after the hassle she gets on Twitter must wonder why she bothers at times) we would know NOTHING Jon snow

PS - can you just assume I cleaned the tavern?
Because I can't really be arsed typing out the mop/polish/dust spiel this morning...

Morning Badders Back to the trailer - re. Portho's 'battle hair' hair he loved it

Cleaning duties naturally assumed helen 😉
God, that hair. Not sure I'd call it "battle hair" Tbh😒
I'd call it "old lady hair"😱
I bet they had to use rollers!!!!!
😀

Laughs forever is a brilliant phrase. I'm going to use it more often.

Morning wenches

My, the Tav looks pristine this morning helen
