Roll up, Roll up, get your leather clad, beardy goods here...... [free pube snogs included]

Apologies for my odd predictive text: Sex not season, the the thought of ancient seasoned Athos isn't that bad...

I really, really hope Milady doesn't die, heroically, by Catherine's hand or otherwise.

This is one of the things I love - that we can all speculate & speculate cos they could go in so many different directions - anyone remember the "who's in that coffin?!" discussion at the end of S1 Ep 9? Oh, how that went on. And on. And on

Should we start casting Mazarin now? Just to be helpful.

Oh yes LetUs. Though he probably has to be an older actor. Not too old though, and nothing that says he can't be FAF....

Might want to pay attention.....

And also - can whoever IS remaining for S3, please show their naked MALE arse in a love scene?

Oh hello, Adrian

Can athos flash more than a nipple pleaseandthankyou

Iain Glenn. Please and thank you.

Or Richard Armitage. He's finished with being a dwarf, and he does like to play a baddie in a BBC series.

Ha. We both pleasedandthankyoud Elk.

YYY to arses and Athos flashing. Ideally Athos' arse. We know he isn't shy.

Oh oh oh.

Rufus Sewell. He'd be excellent AND sexy.

NO. Team Tom have seen his in other things. IT'S TEAM ARAMIS' TURN. It would be a premiere, Adrian. Plus it's more in keeping with the character

Exactly sparks, I'm enjoying all the speculation in s2, I have much less idea of what might happen over the series than in s1.

That's a fine suggestion letus.

I'll put in an early request for Richard Armitage.

mrsbeee beat me too it!

And yes, for the series love machine, we've seen precious little of Aramis

Forgot to say I have no idea what Mazarin is supposed to be like. So a bit older then? Is he nobility or clergy or what?

Iain Glen is a good idea. Richard Armitage is an excellent idea.

And yy to Sparkles' suggestion pleaseandthankyou.

I think what we're all actually trying to say Adrian, to be quite frank, is forget everything that was said at the end of S1 about keeping it the same family show & not sexing it up. JUST PRETEND NO-ONE EVER SAID THAT.

Hit us with whatever you can get past those actors BBC censors.

Eoin Macken Gwaine in Merlin. He can already do the swordfighting & horseriding

Evening wenchery

FMWAD. Exhausted.

1. Elk, so pleased you finally got to watch. Such a great Tom episode. Please wipe down the seats tho. Thank you.

2. socks. Different shop per boy here as 3 have same size feet (one os prone to athletes foot ) so ds1 = m and s, ds2 = next etc. Marks quality has severely reduced over last few years. Next school socks v gd. I have Boden spotty socks, gloriously colourful amongst all the black socks.

I also have a system of boy specific washing bags so stuff doesn't mix too badly in terms of location.

3. Mazarin. Ooh well I doubt we would get Mark Rylance... Matthew McF in penance for his rubbish Athos in the film ??

Hmmm. According to Wikipedia he was 40 when he became Chief Minister. He was Italian and a Cardinal.

Allegedly he came to notice when he won at cards and said it was because the Queen was present and have him luck. He gave her the winnings and she was taken with him. When she became regent he was in power and was Chief Minister for 20+ years.

That is soooo going to be S3.

LetUs - Maz is clergy and government like Riche. Both Cardinals.

Oh the Gwain bloke would also be good. Am quite taken with him too.

Basically BBC anything dark, sexy and 40+. A willingness to get his kit off would be welcome.

Right, am off to zzzzz. Hmm, so many possibilities to dream about. Athos in the meadow please subconscious. bet I get nowt

Laughed ref C17 concealer stick - book does say she conceals the mark from him but doesn't go into detail about how.....

I really like Milady too Carolina - glad someone else does too. I think Thomas was being a cunt. And I think Catherine was being very shady in that flashback so has some part to play. But I also think she might die... Boo. Heroically saving Athos I suspect. Therefore freeing Athos in a way but meaning he's all grumpy still in s3. .

Adrian if you need s3 help just ask away.

That's Milady dying btw. And Mavis.

Anyone else watched Better Call Saul? Just seen first one ...

Basically BBC anything dark, sexy and 40+. A willingness to get his kit off would be welcome.

I think mrsbeee's summary covers the important points.

I haven't seen it comtess, was it any good?

Thanks for the Mazarin information wenches. I would read up on it myself but, ah, who has time?

Jason Isaacs for Mazarin possibly? I did like Eoin Macken but would he not be too young? I like the idea of Matthew McFadyen. I liked his Mr Darcy.

Agreeing again with Sparkles' message to Adrian.

I too am warming to Milady, particularly as she seems at odds with Rochefort.

I really must go to bed. Night wenches
