My thoughts on the episode as a whole can be found
here, and as always here are my Much-related thoughts (with a bit of Allan thrown in):
1) Well, I have to start with a complaint - right at the beginning there was a Treat Much Right moment as Allan deliberately dazzled Much while he was practising his fighting and caused him practically to knock himself out on a tree. Well indeed! Poor poor Much. Come on Allan, we know you have a secret thing about him, so treat Much right!
2) It was initially encouraging to see that Kate rushed to Much's side when he was knocked out, showing concern, but the way she forgot about this quickly and was giggling as she and Allan dragged Much from his feet and out of the clearing. Hmm.
3) But I have to say that I have nothing against Allan leaning against a tree looking especially stunning at the beginning of that scene... Indeed, it's the best bit of tree!porn I've seen in ages!
4) Now then, Kate's causing trouble again. Of course she wants to be seen as competent, but she does end up with a knife at her throat an awful lot of the time, so I don't think Much's (poorly thought out, but completely sincere) attempt to help her deserved that much contempt. And then there's Allan jumping in with his new-found chivalry. So what do we get? A row between Much and Allan, which really isn't what we want to see at all! Poor Much, nothing is going his way at the moment...
5) ... and this was another episode where Robin barely said a word to him!
6) Back to Much's fight with Allan, did anyone else think they looked like they were about to kiss each other when Tuck persuaded them both to shut up? Might just be me ;)
7) And one more Much thing, before I forget: how sweet that he was afraid of the catacombs :)
