Swagger Inn: Thread 87. BBC Musketeers - roll on Friday. Close your eyes and avoid the spoilers... sodding programmers.

[SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp]

As you were wenches... The bar is stocked up, the chaise is re-covered and ready for action, and all we have to do it... er. Wait until Friday.
Arse.

And when he offered to snog the nun

I've been reading the lj watch thread & someone commented 'That was not the face of a woman who would mind being kissed by Treville, just saying'

Yes Helen they're 2-0 up at the moment, so a good night all round. God, I need a cuppa.

for Elk

'king hell.

Hi Anne. MrsB oh yes, wouldn't we all..... (well most of us at least)

Elk did you get any of it, or were you going to watch the failed recording? and sympathies because I suspect the latter. Iplayer here has finally decided that actually I may have an internet connection and it will download. Veerrrrryyyyy sssslllllooooooooooooowwwwwllllyyyyyyyyyyy.

My stomach was in knots for that whole episode. This is a ridiculous level of investment.

What? Elk didn't get to watch again?

I need to go back & RTFT

Bloody hell Elk Not again!

Am wondering how Apes is going to explain the cricked neck at A&E

Where are we going to put the Athos snog cupboard?

Athos snog cupboard

Night wenches

Gave Iplayer a kick in the knackers. Watching properly now babyElk's asleep.

Fucking. Hell. This. Is. So. Good!

Athos and milady scenes are fabulous

The Milathos tension was amazing.

Night ww

Yes I did think how all the Athos wenches would love their scenes together

Oh yes - Connie wailing that she loved him - echoes of Adele pre-shooting, Milady (in flashback) pre-not-quite-hanging?

Should we be concerned that heartfelt declarations of love by female characters in TM seem to precede something unpleasant happening to them?

May call it a night now. I shall leave you with this

Fucksake it's just taken about 40 minutes of repeated efforts to get this thread to load.

That was an absolutely cracking episode. Favourite so far I think. Loved them all except bonkers Rochefort. Milady was amazing. The bit in the bookcase made me go squeeeeeeeeeee and Aramis was FAF all the way through.

And now before MN disappears again, I am off to the chateau with Aramis. Er no, it's okay Aramis, keep the chains......

OMC! Is it possible to wear Iplayer out rewinding?

Niiiiiiiceee lean & nice hip action. OOOOF

Oh & the way he scrunched up his eyes at confession time was fucking HOT. Watch out for it.

Elk I know...

Right. Really. I'm off to the hayloft.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again....hot damn! Tom Burke can kiss

It's a tad dark but even better, eh?

Aramis was indeed FAF throughout, but I hope that the shit hitting the fan won't cure him of his perpetual flirting, he was really keeping a tight lid on it tonight.

I did think when he & Queenie had the heart-to-heart at the convent "our son" etc - that one of them was going to say ILY

Do you reckon she's going to be heartbroken over the Marguerite thing, but ultimately save him from the executioner next week?

"I'll get you off if you stay away from us forever."

I did think that too, but it seemed like Aramis was deliberately keeping his distance. And then when she said she didn't regret sleeping with him, he didn't respond. I'm assuming he's heeding Porthos's advice but it felt like another 'Do you love me Aramis?' moment

Steady yourselves, Team A. SO much FAF in one episode

She could well do. It would fit with her character to be above seeking revenge & be all noble. I think they will also want to put an end to the whole Queenie/Aramis romance, so one of them has to be decisive & it probably needs to be her as that way neither of them comes across as a shit.
