IT FINALLY HAPPENED!!! The Musketeers Season 3, first episode Swagger Inn thread no. 131

[JaneElk]

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.

I am stupid.

Forgive me.

Is Musketeers back On? Really? Very excited. ........ is it? Or is this just an appreciation Thread? (And I really do appreciate)

And sorry, but athos is mine.

Off to check planner.

Yes It's back on arsed, may I call you that? . And no you're not remotely stupid, BBC promo for the last two series has been woeful, blink & you'd miss it. It's on Saturday nights (started this Saturday) & you'll need to keep your wits about you as it'll be skipping around the Saturday night schedules & will probably be bumped for the football some weeks

Good luck in the scrum for Athos, his admirers are a lively lot . Much safer in the Aramis queue, though a tad more frustrating as some wenches aren't very good at sharing.

Sheesh elk are you still awake? Did you have a midday nap while MrElk looked after the DCs?

Lovely Video *Apricot - arf. at Luke photobombing and the 'action extras' Did some screen caps and left in the time to help wenches 'skip to the good bits'

Smut I reckon the BBC can do what they like with the scheduling - the fans will watch it and there won't be a 4th series no matter what the fans want because all the cast and crew have moved on. One of the writers said they couldn't reassemble everyone for a one-off special - so there's no way they could manage a full series (even if the actors wanted to)

Ha ha ha Arsed......the back of the queue is overrrrrr..........erm.......... ........I think it's over.....there. See?....where the vanishing point is...?

I thought the Athos 'queue' was a myth elk? Isn't it just one big pointy-elbowed free for all? It's so unruly, that members have been known to turn to Trev.......

Apologies for the random comma in my previous post.

See Fancy? I start typing that message and there are 3 more messages now than when I started. FFS

Arsed - yes to everything Fancy said, though re. 'Athos is mine' - in the nicest possble sense you can FTFO there and join the scrum He may well be yours but I'm afraid you have to fight for him with the rest of us (or share if you win and feel generous)

Guardian review was a bit odd. The heavy metal comparison felt a bit forced, but at least the reviewer liked it. Red's was far better though

And another 3.. honestly, it's like the good old days when I couldn't keep up for love nor money.

I've been having similar sort of fun Helen

Yes that Guardian review was a bit odd helen, totally agree. Haven't read enough of his other stuff to see if all his reviews are like that. Also the trick on the Red Guards was played out in the bath house, not a brothel wasn't it?

Red's reviews are always fab, she knows what the fans want to see!

Ignore THAT

That clip is so adorable, it makes me smile

Arsed Hahahahahaaaaaahaaaaaahaaaahahaaa, OMG! You're so funny! Hahahaaaahaahahaaaa etc, etc

Lovely day out to finish the BH weekend where we have basically been out. DS1 has asked for a rewatch so if we are still awake after a Midsummer Nights Dream then we may well do that.

Hmm it appears to me that whilst all you wenches are fighting/bickering over Athos and Santi I am free to steal Dog from under your noses heh heh heh and whisk him off to S2 of Our Girl. Gee up Dobbin

Tart!! someone's stealing Dog! (Where is Tart? Not having a RL, surely?!)

Woof I wish you joy and luck with your adventure - would you like to leave your preferred funeral arrangements behind the bar for when TeamDog catch up with you?

Hello Woof and Arsed. Good luck with that!

It's so cute!!! Squeeeee

I can't stop laughing at it, we definitely need more of this.

Too late Tartsy Dog's already mounted and riding hard into my the sunset

Scuse me, please respect your elders😐 I will pass Athos on when I am done with him. I am old. Four days should do it😀

I have seen NO adverts for this! DH is downloading right now. T'will be a late night😉

Evening wenches.

Had a fairly enjoyable family day out.

Hello to more newbies.

All other teams than Athos and Dog - I've got snacks and drinks to have whilst we watch the entertainment/wench fighting

Excellent gif Apricot

Nearly time for Sewing Bee because I'm so rocknroll.

Laterz wenches

Soz Arsed if you're that old then he will obviously be too much for you.
I will have to remove Athos into the hayloft with me for your own protection.

LetUs - Sewing Bee is surely essential for TeamA to make sure you can sew the Blue Sash of Lust and the Blue Robe of Sex back together (or even make replacements) after they've been subjected to repeated pulling on and off, used as 'restraining devices', etc etc

Esp, for the robe - you need to know how to make the robe's seams strong enough to hold it together on a day-to-day basis, but not so strong that they can't be torn apart in case emergency access is required

Right - GoT time. aka InferiorSubstituteHBFsWithSwordsLeatherAndDragons...

laters.

Velcro Helen. Velcro.

Sorry Sister, us oldies have the experience necessary to keep a man such as he well entertained😨

Lower your ladder and wait your turn!

Until I saw this thread I thought I was unusual in having a fancy for Athos....... my DH was the absolute double of him ten/fifteen years ago. S'not fair!
