这一位听说剧组在Cosmeston拍戏,便过去了。下面是她的报告:
So after I saw some tweets about Merlin filming at Cosmeston over at [info]gealach_ros's journal, I thought I'd use the bus ticket I already had anyway for the day and take the bus over there. Have been wanting to see the medieval village anyway.
Anyway, Merlin, because that's all you guys are going to be interested in anyway*g*. no pictures, obviously, they had a relatively vigilant eye on people.
but I saw the scene from afar. Can't tell you anything about the dialogue, 'cause I couldn't hear it. It involved Merlin and Arthur and some other people, new to the show from what I could see. No Hunith, no Gaius. But it was an execution, someone was supposed to burn on the stake, but Arthur and Merlin interrupted at sword-point.
that's all I got. Colin and Bradley were in their usual costumes, gorgeous as ever and Colin sometimes had his puffy coat on. They talked a lot with each other between takes and sat with each other when there was a longer break. And Colin kept joking around with the crew members.
Now that you're all satisfied*g* on to other stuff about this afternoon.
The crew are all so nice. I talked to a few of them, just general conversation, not really about Merlin, though I did ask them whether they liked their jobs, because they did a lot of standing around today, which must get boring as hell. but yeah, everyone was really nice and smiling at me and they seemed to be in a pretty good mood generally.
the village itself and the lakes are really nice. I liked Cosmeston better than St.Fagan's (which is not exactly medieval, but more 17th/18th/19th century, because they really put a lot of detail into the interior of the houses. It's cute, except for this one house where there's a random puppet sitting at a table with his back to you and the house was dark, so it was just slightly creepy.
The lake and the little marshland leading up to the medieval village were just gorgeous and I took a few landscape snapshots and I think I'll be going back there on a warmer day and without Merlin filming disturbing my exploring of the area. Not that I'm complaining*g*.
the two boys are so pretty.
and it was really interesting to watch the whole filming process, it was a first for me, so yeah, happy I went there even though I could only watch from afar.
这个中世纪的村子保存到了现在:
