Once Upon A Time

[CalamityKate]

I. Love. It!

Really, really well done, I thought.

I think I may be Rumpelstiltskin.

[wintera]

Is it messing with anyone else's head that Hook is erm . . . Well you know . . . Fit!!

[ClaraOswald]

We're watching trying to guess who the Character of the week is.

Seeing as we have just had Frankenstein, I wonder when Anne of Green Gables will turn up.

[CalamityKate]

Tom Ellis is going to be playing Robin Hood. He said so on Celebrity Juice.

Hook is delicious.

[wintera]

I thought it was fairy tales but is it just any story in general? Frankenstein isn't a fairy tale, and if Robin Hood appears well then that's a myth so it seems like any story can be incorporated.

[mixedmamameansbusiness]

But I can sort of see how Robin Hood might fit, but really not Frankenstein.

Hook is very .... Fit and the Tom Ellis news has just made my day.

[PolkadotsAndMoonbeams]

I'm glad this thread has re-appeared (I'm on it with my old name actually). I'm enjoying it, although Frankenstein was a bit...weird. There are several fairytale characters I can think of that we haven't had yet.

Actually, I suppose it's Disney characters (has there been a Disney Frankenstein?), that's why we're having Robin Hood (not as a fox though, but I'm definitely not complaining ). Actually, I thought Aurora's Prince was very handsome. I was quite sad they killed him off so quickly.

Also, there are a few bits from last series I want to know. What did happen to Abigail/Catherine and the P.E. teacher? Did we ever find out what had happened to Cinderella's prince who went to the well and never returned? Has Jefferson put a bit of weight on?

And is Cora the Queen who outwitted Rumplestiltskin by finding out his name? There was something mentioned the other week which made me wonder...

[mixedmamameansbusiness]

Ohhhh yes, that is interesting about Cora being the Queen. I couldn't believe there wasn't a thread, so glad it was found.

[Sparklymommy]

Rumpelstiltskin I think I am in love! Regina; does anyone else feel sorry for her?

[CalamityKate]

Me too. And yes!

[CalamityKate]

There's definitely something about Robert Carlisle. His bearing or the way he moves or something. As Rumpel I mean.

[mummytime]

Frankenstein - came from "another world" to Regina (via the hat). So they could draw in any story via the "other worlds", which Hook can travel to on his ship, as can Edwin via the Hat.

[mixedmamameansbusiness]

Yes, I suppose that makes sense. I do feel a little sorry for Regina now. I don't like him as Gold but as scaly Rumpel - I realise I may be weird.

[mixedmamameansbusiness]

Bump in readiness for tonight.

8pm

[PolkadotsAndMoonbeams]

In that red room with the flaming curtains, do we think the lady Henry sees could be Aurora?

I'm trying to think of a fairytale where people are in each other's dreams but nothing's springing to mind, other than Beauty and the Beast when he's dying, so probably not that. Actually, I want to know what's happening with Gold and Belle and the library, I like their story.

[diddl]

Who do we think that Neal is going to be?

The scruffy hair seems familiar, but can't quite think.

[PolkadotsAndMoonbeams]

I was right

Dodgy CGI wolves though!

[HairpinsAndLacquer]

Anybody still watching? Last night's was good wasn't it?

I do like Belle, I think she's one of the most interesting. about the ending though.

I'm glad we had a bit more of Philip, he's very good looking

[Quaffle]

I'm still loving this.

Who is Tamara??????

[sneezecakesmum]

I've watched it from the very beginning and its weirdly logical and crazy at the same time. Love it. I tape everything with adverts so I can whizz through them! Not sure who Tamara is, there are so many characters....especially as they are duplicated, one for fairytale land and one for storybrook.

[Reality]

Tamara is just human and knows about magic I think.

Just like Mark from Empire Records, they've both accidentally stumbled on it. He wasnt to find his dad but I think she's just eeeeevil.

[Quaffle]

I go from hating Regina to feeling sorry for her, to hating her again..... I actually cried when August was redeemed and he and his dad got their chance again

[Quaffle]

....and I have to say I have NEVER seen a more convincing likeness as there is between Snow and her younger self! Genius casting!

[Reality]

Wants, by the way, not wasnt.

Regina is an absolutely brilliant character. I love the fact no one's really bad through and through, they all have reasons for evilness.

I'm glad August and his dad were back in it last night though, I was wondering if they'd just been forgotten.

[sneezecakesmum]

ooo its so interveaving Ditto re regina going from good to evil again! I love the way the characters are not one dimensional despite being for fairy tales.

Is Hook good or bad? Is he the 'one' or will it be neal?

[PolkadotsAndMoonbeams]

Yes, I wondered where August had gone! We haven't seen Cinderella for months either.

I feel so sorry for Regina most of the time now, but once or twice I completely lose all sympathy for her. They play with your emotions so well!
