Pierrefonds - 25 June
Please be warned that these reports and the photos on Flickr now contain some totally serious casting (guest and recurring), costume, and prop spoilers.
Today was a short day for me, alas, in terms of Pierrefonds - and I am now writing this back at home! There was lots going on, but I had to go catch my Eurostar. Also, unfortunately I was feeling a bit poorly, so I spent much of the afternoon sitting around propped in corners - not necessarily conducive to capturing photographs!
There was some filming down in the wooded area underneath the Chateau, but I couldn't make out anything other than the fact that the delightful Dale McCready was involved.
Meanwhile, there was plenty going on in the courtyard, with the knights, the new guy, Angel, Colin and Bradley - and horses! - being directed by Ashley Way. Angel was in the purple dress I mentioned on Friday.
As I left, they were starting to set up the colourful tents in the grassy area in front of the Chateau, so that bodes well for anyone who's there tomorrow.
Sorry, I can't think of anything very pertinent to add at this point, so I will sign off there, and start uploading photos to Flickr. No doubt I'll have to come back and add an ETA or two as I remember things! My trip was awesome, and now I'm ready to just zonk out!
ETA: The photos are now here on Flickr.
