Our Girl Thread 60 "Our Girl, Soldier Soldier and The Musketeers Revisited"

[Ilovelblue]

We started to follow "Our Girl" back in 2014 and although there will be no further series, we do revisit from time to time. We are about to finish the final series of "Soldier Soldier" and will be starting on the first series of "The Musketeers". Of course, there is a definite connection between "Our Girl" and "The Musketeers" in the delightful form of Luke Pasqualino.

The Queen - the King's mother - doesn't look much older than him!

That’s some dress.

Who is the woman in the big hat? Ah..ha! not quite a joyful reunion.

Hands up who trusts that woman? Yep, not a hand to be seen!

Brilliant advice from the Cardinal!!

The Cardinal’s line about being ungrateful!

Cool Athos...very cool!

What a hairdo

Poor Baby in that cot thing.

They don't seem to like that lady for some reason.

Cloth dying - very interesting

Does the queen have oranges in her hair? A bit like Carmen Miranda!

Lots of galloping and shooting !

Athos does not look a happy bunny

Queenie is the only one who gets away with telling the King what to do .

Fancy lace collar in the king

I think the King is a nutcase

He's run off to his room for a sulk...ahhh!

Not sure how old the king is supposed to be but he acts like a child.

I think he’s early twenties

The costume designer had fun with this series.

The queen looks about 16, but I think they were supposed to have been married young.

The King is very mercurial - and easily swayed.

That's some sob story she's got.

So there are hinted problems in the bedroom department. Not surprised, you'd have to put a lot of thoughts aside to entertain nuptials with the King.

So, Aramis tells his sad story. He intended to marry very young.
