SPO so glad the SZS are coming back! Major beck (as was) in a pink dress just makes me crease up, yet again you have proved you are extraordinary ... Completely mental (in the nicest possible way), yes ... ordinary, no!! Not in this world or the alternative world you have sucked us all into!!

Oh, and some pics for you :)

By the way spo methinks the gentleman/BA doth protest too much. Or in other words, please allow me the fantasy that BA is a hard core member (so to speak) of our thread and likes writing zombie fic inbetween filming scenes for Reign. (Is SPOfficer perhaps an anagram of Captain James in a foreign language?)

Just read Greenstuff's latest ff chapter "be Careful what you wish for" - highly recommended bedtime reading, makes you all gooey inside aaah!

There you go again Orphan with your "hardcore member" just before bedtime. Now I'll need a mop down and a replay of elsies "even with a limp" to counterbalance my smutty imaginative mind.

Morning.

Work today. I could just stay at home....and have CJ shout at me repeatedly... Then telling me how much he likes me and his parents are away....

Morning, yes I know what I'll be doing today.

New trailer for Reign with some nice ones of BA...

The link would help

icemist I know what you mean. Such a lovely chocolatey voice to wake up with. If I have a bad day at work, I am going to nip into a meeting room and let him 'talk' to me!

Just had a lovely few mins with cup of coffee and CJ talking to me (you're the nuts elsie) and his voice in the blisters scene is sooo delicious! Just listening without any pictures, seems to make his voice even more intimate...

The photo of BA with his crown on made me giggle icemist. For some reason I imagined him on Christmas day at the table with a plate of turkey, Brussel sprouts etc and a cracker crown perched on his head.

Love the voices Elsie, thank you. You guys are so clever. I'm back in work today and finally had a proper listen to my soundtrack cd without the kids arguing over the top or wanting it changed. Lovely! Now got lots of songs in my head to help me through the day.

By the way, did you notice how SPO was very quiet when BA was back in the UK, but we have another chapter now he had time to write it on the plane on the way back to Canada (sorry SPO!!)

Ooh nickel yes, keep my dream alive!

I wonder when spo BA is going to send icemist the autograph? Maybe he's making a very, very special one: a life sized cardboard cut out, or a huge album filled with all his best 'bits'

Morning everyone! icemist above and beyond with pics and Reign today, lovely! Not sure about the crown, much prefer the headset look, but prepared to overlook its jaunty angle to gaze at that gorgeous jawline once more...

Just watching Ep 1 again. CJ really is Mr Shouty in this one yet totally adorable. He can shout at me as much as he likes. Just freeze framed the stance in the "stay focussed" speech - you simply can't duplicate that in a silly crown and velvet blouson. I'd have him top to toe in black with criss-cross leather thong lace up front on the shirt, gaping open to the waist, black leather trousers and boots covered in Tudor grime. Plenty of face stubble, furrowed brow, evil smirk. Lovely

Morning all, just dropping in quickly to post a couple of links to eyedrops & also duet....(thanks again ice for video)

Eyedrops audio -

Duet audio -

And here's the whole playlist as it stands -

But just to emphasise how many times I have watched the Duet scene, my 2 year old just started singing 'Don't go breaking my heart' when I was testing the audio! Well, not exactly singing, but he rushed over to the computer to see the screen and then begin to join in with the last word of every line with a huge smile on his face

Just had the Brize Nor-Hun posh boy line in Ep 1 whilst out on patrol, dreamy. Loving the audio elsie.

Bit random here but a line that always makes me laugh is when Smurf gets shot in Ep 1 and Molly is crawling to get to him and 2 Section are willing Smurf to be ok. Who is it that says "come on Smurf you tit"? Cracks me up every time despite it being a serious point in the story. Also Molly says "you're gonna be ok, alright wanker?" which is so natural and funny

That's how my usually impeccable (written) English has suddenly saw a broadening of its vocabulary ;-) never learnt that many bad words in the 9 years of life in London before-OG!
(Bluestone is just refining it, now)

Ladies, the new year is the new year. I dropped the kiddo and am now free until 3. I could choose to stay at home and clean and potter and sort out stuff whilst watching tv...but I am being focused, putting running shoes on and going for it. Will be a short and calm one, as I am still fighting a yucky bug, but I am sticking to my plan. CJ would be proud of me. I am applying myself (no, wait, that was major beck, before the pink neglige?)
:-))

Well done Cherin. Crackon (thought that was better than off you f*)!! My language has never been so bad either!! I'm liking bluestone too!
cjwoof I think it was brains in ep 1, I liked that too. Brains has some good lines, I like after when molly gets punched he's ready to lamp someone for her, bless him!!

Ah yes, Brains, thanks Nickel. I knew who didn't say it but couldn't put my finger on who did. Love that line. Me too cherin, I've never used so many fu*ing awesomes and come on you cowombles so much in my life before OG. I'm often feeling like a tit, a numpty and a fu*muppet these days too. Still practising my Brize Nor-hun though, doesn't come as easily as bellend.

cjwoof I promise to dig out RP version of Brize Nor-hun when I get a sec - which version would you like again (which scene)?

In the meantime, couple of versions of 'come back to me' -

soundcloud.com/elsie3g/clip-come-back-to-me-ep3

Whole scene and then a cut down one, sorry guys I don't have the end bit as the video I was working with stopped there.

I think we need a "have some human decency and put some bloody effort in" audio clip, it would be useful in so many areas as a motivational tool (running, getting the kids out of the bath etc£

No worries pixie I'll dig it out later today

I love the bit in ep 1 where they first get to Bastion and he's doing his PT session at 0530/regulation 6 hole boot up the arse bit. Mainly because he's so utterly sexy, all tousled curls and stern face and being a bit of a bastard.

Honestly I don't know where this sexy authority thing is coming from, if someone did that to me IRL I'd cry or punch them.
