Aug. 12th, 2008 08:33 pmYes, it's bonekickers time again! Well, nearly. I will have popcorn.
I have an ICON. I am Ready.
What are to expect tonight? From the BBC -
Gillian risks everything to find the greatest sword in history. Why do clues lead to the poet Alfred Tennyson, who are the Disciples of Good Use and how they are connected to Henry Timberdyne?
Is it just me or do 'the disciples of good use' sound like the lamest cult ever?
Right. Off to make popcorn and get settled for the... enragifying joy.
And we're off!
SPACE, the final fronti... wait. 2222bc? That's handy. and Neat.
Oh god SWORD WORSHIP and now Tennyson. ooh and the Mysterious Intern IS Gilly's sister. Who she's ignoring in favour of talking to herself about Big Swords. As you would.
OMG DEXTER FLETCHER! And Whispering Yokels. In red coats? Is the whole episode going to be star trek themed?
"I don't have a quest!" psshaw ALL archaeologists have a QUEST! Mine is mostly for cider, true, but still.
Metal Detectorists are EEEVIL EVILL I SAY. Wonder how long before the redcoat gets it?
heee the director guy's tshirt 'I dig archaeology' More than the rest of the team ever seem to!
And now, Glastonbury! hahahah giving out about 'sections'. Obviously part of the attempt to make them look like Real Archaeologists.
HAHA slow motion trowelling?? Must be friday morning.
Ooh go Viv "you sad messed up woman". Quite.
Mystery In the Lab! Labs are very mysterious places you know. We have one at work. I'm sure ALL SORTS go on in there.
CAMELOT! Well, it is a Silly Place, it's fairly apt this lot go there.
Bye bye red shirt ;p
So, the table (not round tho, a bit oval) has Mystic Solar Alignments and also points handily to A GRAVE.
OOH HENRY TIMBERDYNE... why is this so scary? Ahh the mystery maske and Cult of the Lame Name. Nasty rich boys.
Rofl Dolly 'things i dare not speak of' ... ah they're obsessed with the Big Sword too. Heh. I bet he WAS one.
Aww Dolly's too scared? WHY is archaeology never this scary when I do it? No-one follows me in scary masks or anything :/
"All the gear, no idea". Well, quite. OOh i think her spidy archaeological sense are tingling... (heh damn clay pipes. THat I agree with). AHA it is FAKE. Or... a reburied original?
Bleh Emo speechtime. and... and almost kiss! Why didn't she snog him? He is pretty fine. Ooh they KNOW about the sisterness. And she's (Viv) Important because of it. Aww. Poor Dexter isn't the big baddy after all.
Woo. It's like a stalker's room, but of Swords. She does like her big weapon. And now for the 'history' part. EVERYONE has used The Sword. OH fuck no, don't drag in Boudicea! Ahh. so every thing they've encountered in the entire series so far leads to TEH SWORD.
Oh dear.
EEEE EEE JESUS RATS EEEWW
There was NO NEED for that. NO NEED. Poor Dexter :/ I mean, I know metal detectorists are EVILBADWRONG, but still. Excessive.
Heh. He's pissed he didn't get his snog and thinks she's insane. He may be right. SHe is a cow ;p
Is it just me or is the plot getting more and more like Buffy? They've all abandoned her, but no doubt will all come running at the end. Singing 'walk into the fire'.
Viv is in teh SCARY room with masks and a silly voice. Wanting ANSWERS.
Hmm. I wonder if the nurse is in on it. Anyone could be by this point frankly. Ah, it's under The Rug. Well hidden there.
EEEEEEEEEE DEAD DEXTER EEEEEEEEE
Seriously. NO NEED.
AHA the nurse WAS in on it. How did she manage to replace the floorboards AND rug from underneath? HOW?
Reconstruction time! they found a SHINY THING. A MAGICAL shiny thing. In the BRISTOL CHANNEL.
I see she's using her Archaeological Imagination! And a magical interwebs to handily find exactly what she needs.
How come Creepy Daniel is in this one so much? Is he in on the whole thing too?
YAY DOLLY comes to save the day! How did he work that out? Who cares! To the Rescue! With a beer bottle ;p 'this is their chapter house', I SAID he was one of them!
Aaaand the Archaeological Scoobies are all back again to help Gilly/Buffy (guffy?).
The sword is in teh grave. Of course the sword is in the grave. Why did no-one think of this before? Oh wait, it's just a Clue. To Wells Cathedral!
HAHAH "They drop all the way down to an underground cavern" hehehehe. And there's water, so technically a lake!
Woo Dolly is baffling them with... history. GIVE ME DATES!
AHAHAH WE HAVE IT
DON'T MESS WITH ME, I'M AN ARCHAEOLOGIST!!
and so is ben!
Um, wouldn't it be better to TIE UP the murderous baddies.
hahah the sword is in STONE? NO no no.
It glitters! like a sparkly vampire ;p
AHAHHAHAHAHA I AM GOING TO DIE LAUGHING HELP ME SOMEONE HELP ME
"MY mother loved that sword!" hur hur hur
and... she BROKE it? OF course she bloody broke it, she destroys everything she finds. Why did the man just vanish into the water tho? It IS a star trek cross over and he teleported away?
(i can't believe she BROKE it.)
heeeee they're throwing it back in? hahahahhaha.
ooh if it's broke, does that make it Narsil now?
Can't
Stop
