Loved the 'Brittanic Ti(mes?)' - very neat!

Oh no Gaz and Robbie for the long drop (and a sudden stop) Jason off trying to persuade the troops to mutiny, Richard... well don't know what he's up to yet, and Howard has James' missing Imperial comb spanner - which is going to need a good going over with WD40!

And Markie, half starved but still fighting - Cowell's obsession could well prove his downfall ‘No. Orange and Barlow can go, but I still want Mark. I needed him to control Williams.’ that's the excuse he gives May, but I have a feeling he just doesn't want to lose this particular toy!

Can't wait for part 2 (oh by the way you've written ch 23 at the beginning)

[cenea]

hehe, got the idea from you, thanks :D And your awesome manips :D :D

Yes, clearly the biggest worry here is the spanner. poor James!! It's amazing he's still sane... ;)

Oh, yes, naughty Cowell - any excuse to keep hold of his pretty toy ;)

Re: chapter number. whoops :P This thing is getting a little hard to control, in every way. I will go and change it - thanks for letting me know and thanks so much for reading :)

[awkbyname]

I like the way it's folded!

Indeed, in the midst of a facist dictatorship, wormholes and general chaos to have also lost a spanner - James really must be teetering on the edge (ooh if he does lose his sanity it could go and live with ours - think about it it could do all the tidying up!!).

Glad to see the 'hand' making an appearence - I could hear the faint hiss of hydaulics as he grabbed Mark's hair - that shouldn't have the effect on me that it does!

And you thought they were hard to control when they were at sea!!!!

[cenea]

The fold wasn't me, but the online generator. It said you weren't supposed to use real names in the papers, but I really doubt anyone is actually going to know what it's on about, let alone bother to arrest me...haha, well, we hope ;)

James' sanity is welcome to join us. I think Mark's might be coming too, so we're never going to have to worry about cleaning again :D :D :D

"Glad to see the 'hand' making an appearence - I could hear the faint hiss of hydaulics as he grabbed Mark's hair - that shouldn't have the effect on me that it does!" - ooooooh, I should have added that hiss. You should be writing this, not me ;)

hehe, quite!!!

Lovely artwork at the top!

I have been hoping all weekend there would be a new installment today. So I was happy that indeed there was one.

Poor, poor Markie... still stuck with Cowell and getting weaker. Someone please save him soon!

Oh dear, Gaz and Rob are in serious trouble now. This can't be good at all. Will poet Jason save them?

And what is Hamster up to now? Will he be the one to accidentally save the day? Argh, all these questions I have now... *g*

Again I find myself eagerly awaiting the next chapter. :)

[cenea]

Aw, thanks! I'm glad I was able to get more up - for the second half of this chapter will be up very soon (with lots more poor!Markie... *very* bad me ;)) I have had to make all these last chapters very long for just to get the story finished! Eeeeeek!!

The paper was quite fun to make, actually. It was very easy, using a generator website. They said you weren't supposed to use real names in the newspapers, but hopefully nobody will shout at me ;)

Hehe, Hamster is certainly up to something, as is poet Jason. I'm hoping that them *all* trying to save the day won't cancel each other out, because that might be a disaster!!

Thanks so much for reading, and more very soon :)

[delilah_60]

Yay, good to know more is on the way soon! Hehe. I thought as much that there would be more whumping coming up in this fic. ;)

It looks very cool that paper... really works for the fic too. I hope they will keep silent about the use of names...

Uh oh, yeah... we can't have them do that. They finally have to come together to make it work, or poor Mark will always be stuck with Cowell.

[cenea]

I'm sure I don't really have to worry about the names on the paper. It just said something about 'don't use real names' on the website I used, but I really don't see how anybody else would ever see! hehe, but I always worry a bit about silly things...

Aw, yes, I really think Mark deserves a bit of proper rescuing soon! I promise you they will succeed within the next two chapters, or possibly I will go mad too!!

[elijahluv]

I love that newsarticle!

Dear me poor Markie in hospital! It's not fair! *cries*

And I agree! FREE BARLOW AND WILLIAMS NOW!

[cenea]

thanks! The newspaper was fun to make :)

Haha, I know, but it is Mark's lot in life to get whumped, so it seems ;)

I'm sure the other two will be okay, though. I tend to be nicer to them ;)

Jeremy glanced around, but Richard was nowhere to be seen. His grin wavered a little. It was much less fun when his suggestions were greeted with grim, determined countenances rather than fighty, abusive comebacks

Aw! Theirloveissodemented!

I imagine Gary and Robbie being in a cell together must be going smoothly.

It is interesting that the poet and the beauty are much more effective at this revolution business than the politician or the mad bomber. Don't tell Richard that - he wouldn't take it well.

I'm still hoping for fireworks. Big ones.

[cenea]

It is, indeed, rather demented. I'm afraid those two don't turn up again before chapter 26, but they do have something rather interested planned...and possibly a little bit explosive. It's definitely fiery.

"I imagine Gary and Robbie being in a cell together must be going smoothly." - you will learn about that one rather sooner...

"It is interesting that the poet and the beauty are much more effective at this revolution business than the politician or the mad bomber" - this is because I have (probably slightly inept) romantic ideals. If I started on the other reasons for the I opted for this, I would get rather long-winded and boring, and would probably sound equally inept.

Oh, and thanks for reading! The end is in sight, honest... Than I have to work on all those missing scenes!!!

[wolfy_writing]

Fire and explosions sound good.

Gary and Robbie sound fun.

Your ideals are sweet.

Glad to read. I quite like this one. Most of your Take That stuff isn't to my taste, but this has lots of adventure, and plotty stuff that goes above and beyond the romance element, and general awesomeness. And a Mad Hamster doesn't hurt anything.

SIMON COWELL!!!!!!!

HOW DARE HE WANNA KILL MY GARY

*is mad, very mad*

ok... back to my senses now! he wants to kill Rob as well :-(( and is james really a traitor now, or playing some trick on simon with that machine issue. i wonder what's that vacuum cleaner thing he was talking to *thinks*

poor markie locked up and gonna be force-fed

i hope the coronation turns into some disaster for simon, and the public get access to the paper that howard and co. have published

[cenea]

Oops, sorry! Hehe, but I think you know me well enough to know that anybody who even threatens Gary like that in one of my stories is going to get his comeuppance very soon...especially with Gary! I'm not actually that good at being really mean to Gary. I'm much better at whumping Mark ;)

So that disaster you've forecast might be on the cards...

Thanks for reading, and more soon :)

[mrs_barlow]

I know you wouldn't want Gary harmed in the long run... it's kinda weird, knowing you probably won't actually kill Gary or any of the other nice guys in the fic makes it a bit of a spoiler, but then the excitement is in how you might hurt them temporarily or how you get them out of this mess

i agree with Jeremy adn the others, some explosives up simon's butt wouldn't hurt hehehe!!

can't wait to read the disaster

[cenea]

"...it's kinda weird, knowing you probably won't actually kill Gary or any of the other nice guys in the fic makes it a bit of a spoiler..." - ah, then maybe I had better pretend I've got a really, really evil streak then? But you're not helping me by evil by posting that lovely picture of the Gary in his shiny shirt and PVC trousers... That just makes me want to lick him!
