Phew! We're all feeling a bit post-coital. Come, pull up a bar stool, down a Jizzy Athos and flail with us over Aramis in his navy monk robes.

Omg, did he smell of caramel?
Did he?

Fancy...sigh. I'm not surprised. Pissed off, but not surprised.
Hope dss is OK Madame. He will remember who was there for him, I'm sure X
Taking Dh out tonight. Why!? Why did I suggest it? When all I want to so is lie in bed watching Netflix eating calippos?
😫

It is a lovely story, Badders!

Travelled down to London to see the play, only to be told that the performance was cancelled because of a flood at the theatre. So we were queueing at the box office to exchange tickets, all feeling pretty gutted and depressed, for a different performance and the bell rang in the foyer; we assumed it was another announcement from the theatre staff - it was only bloody Kit Harington (and his minder Grin) who had come up to the foyer to apologise to us all! He stayed and signed posters and took selfies for about two hours. I chatted to him wittily and confidently in my head, actually I was like an inarticulate teenage schoolgirl while he signed a poster for me.

You know how sometimes you see celebs in real life and they're a bit of a letdown - not as shiny as you thought? He is just as beautiful in real life (although doesn't smell of caramel!) but is such a slender, small guy. Only about an inch taller than me!

TheOnlyLivingBoyInNewCross · 08/06/2016 16:12

I could really eat a strawberry calippo right now. Home off work with a horrid virus and nothing nice in the house. Although...did we get DS fruit pastille ice lollies last time we went shopping?!

Cinnamoncookie · 08/06/2016 16:24

Ooh, ta, OnlyBoy, you've just reminded me I have Lidl fakey Magnums in the freezer.

Badders123 · 08/06/2016 16:28

Oh, how lovely :)
I have choc ices in the freezer but I must be strong. I'm out for dinner tonight!

FancyFancy · 08/06/2016 16:28

I reckon those ice lollies are yours onlyboy, only fair if you're ill.

Aw he sounds lovely. But how short are we talking?

ApricotCrush · 08/06/2016 16:29

Statistics Wench reporting! Grin

The consolidated viewing figures, i.e. live and iPlayer so far, for episode 1 were 4.2 million. We were 23rd most watched programme on BBC1 for the week. I don't think that's bad bearing in mind the lack of promo.

This compares with 4.93 million and 25th for S2 Ep1 and 9.29 million and 2nd for S1 Ep1.

We weren't out of the top 20 throughout S1 but only got into the top 30 four times during S2.

Badders123 · 08/06/2016 16:30

This is me looking at kit 🙄

Oh, hope you get better soon OnlyBoy.

Have a nice evening Badders.

Badders123 · 08/06/2016 16:32

I'm 5'5" so it's all good :)
I'm binge watching being human ATM on Netflix...AT 😍

Cinnamoncookie · 08/06/2016 16:35

Is this the point to mention that I worked with someone who used to date Kit? I think that means he and I are virtually married Grin

FancyFancy · 08/06/2016 16:49

Interesting stats apricot - what were the figures like for s1 ep 10? Did numbers dwindle through the series, or was there a big drop between s1 &s2?

This is the point to mention it as long as you dish the dirt cinn Wink

ooh badders, is that wise on an already hot day?

TheOnlyLivingBoyInNewCross · 08/06/2016 16:55

He can't be more than about 5'7", I reckon.

Ice lolly report: found it, stole it, ate it. Feeling less crappy now! I hate staying off for a "cold" but it's a proper shivery, hot, tired, headachy, sore throaty one with MASSIVE sneezes.

That pic was totally me talking to him, Badders!

Cinnamoncookie, definitely married 😂 But at the thought of dating him. Although he does smoke though, which I find a turn-off. Because that's why he and I aren't together, of course, his smoking 🙄

Do any of the Muskeboys smoke, do we know?

Cinnamoncookie · 08/06/2016 17:01
Cinnamoncookie · 08/06/2016 17:02

Dammit, I need to collect my coat from the dry cleaners. You can practically guarantee that the moment I step out of the door, it'll rain, given the changeable weather today. Pfffft

TheOnlyLivingBoyInNewCross · 08/06/2016 17:05

See, I hate smoking but he looks sooooo gorgeous doing it

FancyFancy · 08/06/2016 17:11

Agreed onlyboy, hate it too but I'd forgive Santi that filthy habit and other instances of filth if I'm honest

5'7"? Hmmmmm.

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 08/06/2016 17:24

Evening all. I lost the will to live and walked out of left BoringOfficeJob early. As did the rest of the team I work with. I left in blazing sunshine, drove home and into dank cloudiness. Washing was hanging on the line feeling slightly clammy

erm.... have RNBR much I think. Um

OnlyBoy - lolly theft is perfectly allowable in the circumstances. And you don't have 'only a cold.' From the sound of it you probably have WenchFlu - which is like Manflu, but real.

Respect to Kit Harrington for the signing. It's a shame that his smoking forced you to marry someone else Wink - that and the fact he's married to Cinn of course. Grin Re smokign Muskie - we know Tom used to, and there was behind the scenes picture which he looked suspiciously like he was holding one. But he didn't smell of cigarette smoke when we snogged him. Oh - freudian slip. Shock I meant when we met him. Grin #deluded #WishfulThinking #etcetc

As for BBC1 scheduling. pfft. Really, did we expect anything else from them? I mean, we hoped, but there's been so much analysis of available slots and sporting fixtures it was really inevitable. At least the Sky box is quite good at keeping up with these things. Or not (remembers that Ep1 wasn't recorded, despite DH swearing blind it was set up).

Intertesting stats though Apricot

erm... I ought to look at my email mountain I suppose.

ApricotCrush · 08/06/2016 17:45

Fancy S1 Ep10 was 5.27m, 12th most watched, so a gradual drop throughout the season. S2 remained pretty static, finishing on 4.57m. By then I think it had found its audience and they stayed with it.

I don't mind Ep3 being on the Monday, as then they'll get through the whole series before I go on holiday.

Am I the only one who doesn't know who Kit Harington is? I know he's on GoT but we don't get Sky Atlantic.

FancyFancy · 08/06/2016 17:48

No cross posting helen, unless comtess does that witchy thing Hmm

Geography today, DS seemed happy with it. Maths tomorrow, which should be ok barring any complacency - how sad am I that I found myself looking wistfully at a trigonometry question on one of DS's past papers? Blush

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 08/06/2016 17:48

From JP's Twitter - there is much outrage re. the plastic footwear... Grin

Kit Harington is in Game of Thrones??!?

I only fancy him because he used to work in my local Waterstones!

Sorry: couldn't resist. I love him in GoT.

Cinnamoncookie · 08/06/2016 18:06

Never mind Luca's crocs, check out Tom's gurn!!!

AnneEtAramis · 08/06/2016 18:07

Tbh I am more excited about Rob Madden (is he called Rob in real life?) in Romeo and Juliet, although I am still more excited by Lily James and Meera Syal

Luca smokes and Hugo. I give, ohhhh, no fucks, although it isn't ideal.

Badders123 · 08/06/2016 18:13

It's Richard madden who played Robb stark
My fave from GofT 😍😓
Yes the smoking is a massive turn off
Apes now to box Amazon entertainment pass to watch GofT you didn't see me, right?
seriously, they have some deals ATM. I got a 6 months pass for £13!
Must go and get ready. Really not feeling like it. Bleh.
Huge music festival type thing in my neck of the woods this weekend so the village will be RAMMED
