Well, that was SO, SO GAY, oh my god. Yes, Prince John, please do drag a half-naked Guy out of bed in the middle of the night to kneel sweatily at your feet while you demand that he LOVE YOU. OH MY GOD.
Very quickly, in the space of 45 minutes, Robin Hood has managed to put everything I like into a television programme. Hot hot people? Check. RAMPANT GAY? Check, Court intrigue? CHECK. akjshdgjgd
Other thoughts:
- The Sheriff! Is dead! That would have been approximately 182368762487 times more amazing had I not been spoiled, inadvertently, for that very event, but still PRETTY DAMN AMAZING. Also, I want more scenes with a desperate looking Richard Armitage fighting people. Because. Er. I do.
- Toby Stephens was camping that up marvelously, was he not? I approve.
- Isabella! I really like her! She's all sly smile and amazing hair, and slightly hawk-like features, and clever.
- I accidently ship about a bazillion people in this programme. Er? Let's count: Robin/Much, Much/Allan, Much/Kate (even though I hate Kate, Much likes her and that's good enough for me - let Much be happy, for god's sake), Prince John/Guy, Guy/Robin, Guy/Allan, Guy/Sheriff (but not any more, apparently), Guy/Isabella, Guy/all the angst in the world, Guy/leather, Guy/eyeliner (or Guyliner, if you will), Guy/EVERYTHING. Some of those may have deteriorated into madness, but shhh. It's Guy. He makes my brain go wrong.
- I am enjoying this season so much more than the ones I've been catching up on. This could have something to do with the fact that I like Isabella about a hundred times more than Marion, and I love Tuck, and I am really liking New Long-haired Guy. Also, also, TOBY STEPHENS AND RICHARD FREAKING ARMITAGE IN THE SAME PROGRAMME WITH A WEIRD INTENSE RELATIONSHIP GOING ON. ajdhjsgd god, it's like the BBC is trying to make me spontaneously combust.
- I have to say that during that opening scene I was just making more and more stupid noises as the scene got gayer and gayer and more ~intense~, so that when it got to the credits, I had to give up and put my face in the cushions and kind of bang my fist on the sofa arm with sheer, sheer flailing. I have no-one's mobile number that watches this show! I had no-one to text frantically! jasdgjgdah
GODDDDD. Okay, I seem to have fallen more in love with this crackalack show than I already was. A+++ BBC. A+++.
Now to do some Pilates before it's time for Saturday night Chinese food and possibly some more X-Men. Because I have not watched enough ridiculousness for one day.
God, I want to fic for Robin Hood. (That is not something I ever thought I'd say).
