lesbiassparrowI'm up to episode 5, which is the obligatory Jesus/messianic figure one that all faux mythical series must have and Roar continues to entertain:
So far, there's been:
1. Bad Irish (oh, so terribly bad that at one point I thought it was Welsh)
2. A banshee
3. Mystic merchants from the far east who have somehow managed to make it to Ireland to sell the natives gunpowder
4. The hearing of the mystic roar of the land which is the key to freeing all the people of Ireland from the threat of Roman invasion
5. Not nearly enough evil Queen Diana and her sidekick Longinus.
6. Tight trousers. Tight, tight trousers which cling lovingly to people's legs...um, well, you get the picture. And very little clothing given the Irish climate. They were certainly much tougher people back then.
6. No rain. Not a fecking drop. And only mud when you have to wrestle people. It's funny, but the upgrading of the Irish weather makes me roll my eyes more than the Romans invading Ireland
ETA: Marcus Cole makes a guest appearance with a quite terrifying bowl haircut and his cinaedus - whom he forces everyone to watch as he does some horrific writhing movement which only a blind person could call a dance.
ETA 2: Why do I not live in a world in which I can say lines like 'get your filthy hands off my sword'? Also Heath Ledger now has, for some inexplicable reason, a Welsh accent.
ETA 3: There has been (rather disturbingly) a good moment with Conor trying to wrap his mind around the Romans killing their own god - Christ - and dealing with possessing a weapon that can kill a god. But now it's been ruined by some stuff about the wonders of Christianity.
ETA 4: Heath Ledger now has a Scottish accent. He is travelling through all the Celtic races! Soon he will have a Breton accent and then we'll be out of Celts...
