Ooh, look, it's nearly time for a new thread and I'm the only one still here slumped across the bar. I think this place needs decorating ...

Johnny Depp/Captain Jack Sparrow is still the King of the Moustache Twiddlers, though

Didn't watch last night. Went out to a friends house for wine. So deliberately haven't read thread, just about to sit and watch now.

ChaiseLounger · 28/02/2015 08:47

I am going to bed. I am very tired.
Oh I do so love my stroppy Kingy.

MadamedeChevreuse · 28/02/2015 08:47

Oooh chaise it was good!!

Kingy actually looked quite hot last night I thought - no, really. When he was being depressed and skulking in his room and had a bit of a six o clock shadow. Anyone?

SPOILER!
But wasnt it lucky he went to bed for the whole of the princess's visit eh - otherwise he might have (not) recognised her... Hmm

We had not very much sleep last night ( Flowers elky ) - we have to go to my mums tho cos its her birthday. Ds seems ok but pretty wan and eating feck all.

Zzzzzzzzzzzzz.

Morning wenches

Thought I was on to a good thing with a record 5 minute bedtime with baby elk last night....but on the dot of 9 o'clock.....

Watched at ten, but my memory is so shot I've only retained snippets. Will have to rewatch whilst reading last nights commentary, however certain bits did stick:

  • Preparatory sketches Grin at Athosezz brilliant sleuthing brain
  • I reckon this must be the ep they were filming when the journos were out there....I'm sure she said Tom had a stinking cold
  • Verruca just looks ill, she needs to eat some pies
  • Didn't have much sympathy for Aramis I'm afraid
  • If I was Dog I'd have probably added a swift boot to the crossbow bolt sticking out of Bonacieux
  • I do hope the Milady/Athos exchange is gearing up for some proper angry banging up against a wall action....I read it that way, their chemistry is very convincing
  • I liked fake Princess Lou. Milady missed a trick, they should have teamed up...they'd have been an awesome murderous force sod the plot
  • Shouty Tom Athos gives me the instant horn

Now, why do kids have to be prised out of bed clinging to the bedpost on a school day, but bounce out at the first crack of a sparrows fart on the weekend? Fuckers.

And...Babyelk just rolled of the sofa whilst I was typing Shock Blush It's OK, she bounced

BloodyElkFire · 28/02/2015 09:13

and if anyone's seen my mojo.....I could really do with it back, ta

MavisGrind · 28/02/2015 09:23

Morning!

Madame - we truly are wench twins, it is also my mothers birthday today.... So, I'm off out to see her then off out tonight. Will try and squeeze in a re-watch along the way.

Hope the illing wenches/mini wenches are on the mend soon and yay for bouncing babyelk Grin

laters all.

Baddz · 28/02/2015 09:24

Elk

I agree re Aramis...he is not nice
but he is very hot so we forgive him

LetUsPrey · 28/02/2015 09:48

Morning wenches.

MadamedeChevreuse · 28/02/2015 10:00

Ooooh!!!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY FANCY!!!!

No, hes just not nice is he. Not like that nice wife murderer athos. Hmm

LetUsPrey · 28/02/2015 10:08

Hope DS is feeling better soon Madame

Happy Birthday Flopsy and Happy Birthday Fancy Thanks Thanks

MadamedeChevreuse · 28/02/2015 10:09

And flopsy too is it?? Happy birthday flops! Cake

MadamedeChevreuse · 28/02/2015 10:10

Another pair of wench twins.

muffinino82 · 28/02/2015 10:14

Morning wenches. Just a quickie before I saddle up my non-carriage horses for the day

Diolch and thanks Madame & Comtess I fell asleep not long after my last comment due to Wine Blush

Aramis is a little shit and deserve a good spanking to be pulled up on his behaviour

Shouty!Athos in the preview made me reach for the smelling salts Wink

preliminary sketches made me chortle and reminded me of the blackmail of the baby-eating Bishop of Bath & Wells:

ChaiseLounger · 28/02/2015 10:17

Oh yes. I liked that episode a lot. My fave of series 2, so far.
Anyone think that any of the other episodes have been better?

Not enough Athos.
Loved the shouty Athos at the end. Can't wait for next week.
Dog was fab. I am loving dog this series. All his running..... And he looked really hurt/worried when bonacieux managed to fit in his curse.
I don't like the way they are portraying Aramis's as shallow and a bit dim. Yes we know he is a bit, but I just don't like the way they are running with this.
Or Dr and Constance - what are the writers trying to do?
Intrigued (or any work out) as to why Milady wants to encourage Roquefort with the Aramis's treason bit.
Liked the scene with the four of them at the end looking at 1st Minister Roquefort and thinking 'oh shit'.

I think writers want villan continuity , after losing capaldi, so will keep warren till end. But how? How can they drag it out for another 1.5 series, now that Milady knows he's a Spanish spy. I wanted Milady to go to Athos with that info, but she hasn't.

We are all agreed There's too much Roquefort this series and I see that continuing. That never did as much screen time with Cardinal, but his contributions were of such class it was perfect.

I was glad to see porthos going to see a man next week, asking if he was his dad, so at least Trev does tell him something.

I need to do a rewatch asap.
Def my fave so far, of series 2.

ChaiseLounger · 28/02/2015 10:21

Well done muffin on the job.
Nice to see Anne and also Livia - haven't seen either in a while.

ChaiseLounger · 28/02/2015 10:23

Happy Birthday Flopsy and Fancy.

FancyFancy · 28/02/2015 10:30

Good morning, thanks to all for the birthday wishes & Happy Birthday flopsy!!

(can't afford a repeat of the norah tit bump outcome)

MadamedeChevreuse · 28/02/2015 10:32

Thats brilliant muffin Grin Id forgotten that ep! Wonder if "preliminary sketches" in the ep last night was an actual nod to that?

We should totes tweet that clip to jp.

Btw...the black and blue / cream and gold dress. Who tf actually sees it as cream and gold?? Can we do a straw poll please? Im intetested to see how much of a real split there is...

Im blue and black btw.

FancyFancy · 28/02/2015 10:36

Very positive DigitalSpy review

FancyFancy · 28/02/2015 10:46

Agree with badders that Francesco was rather nice (poss a bit short though) & Dog continues to look lovely.

Kingy does look better when he's not dressed in his frilly finery madame

Athos's mental leap to the preparatory sketches made me think WTF? Maybe I missed something but it seemed out of the blue, I need to rewatch! Would love it to be a Blackadder gag though Grin

Brew for elk, think we've all had one of those rolling moments

I was wondering about the doctor/Connie thing chaise, maybe they don't want Dog & Connie to be together yet? I didn't expect the curse bit from Mr B, maybe they will play that up, with lots of guilt all round & the doctor as a love rival so they can spin out the will they/won't they 'til the end of series 3.

FancyFancy · 28/02/2015 10:46

Cream & gold for me madame

muffinino82 · 28/02/2015 10:49

Thanks Chaise Smile

Am I the only one who is staking a claim for Rocky The First Minister then? Blush I've quite fancied him and his crazy, stary eyes since Hustle. Not relinquishing my place in line for Athos mind, just saying he could entertain me with his moob cleavage and panto villainy while I wait Wink

That Blackadder episode is fab, one of my favourite comedy replies is I am the baby eating Bishop of Bath & Wells I don't have twitter though so can't post it there. I would love Athos' line all the more if it was a reference to that Grin

The dress is blue and black, ovs. I did see one pic where someone had put a sepia tone over it and it looked cream and gold but all the other pics look blue and black

MadamedeChevreuse · 28/02/2015 10:56

No fuckin way fancy!!!! Seriously? Like, really cream and gold? Without a shadow of a doubt?

Weird.

muffin there is one wench in the rochefort queue yes...someone with up close and personal experience no less...
