'MUSKETEERS' SECOND SEASON
17TH CENTURY ADVENTURE CONTINUES THIS JANUARY
Although January often gets the title of the Sleepy Month, the upcoming one will bring us the return of the historical adventure series THE MUSKETEERS which will air the first episode of the second season on January 2nd in United Kingdom at BBC and January 17th at BBC America in USA. Although the first season left a lot to be desired (the lack of vivacious, dynamic and flamboyant atmosphere that is the essence of the Musketeers tales, uninspired stories and some truly bad acting performances), we still look forward to the new episodes to see whether the series will finally find its spirit, direction and focus. THE NEW OPPONENT IS HERE
Based on the classic stories by Alexandre Dumas and created by Adrian Hodges (''My Week With Marilyn'') THE MUSKETEERS were last year aired in more than 140 countries around the world! It
will again be set on the streets of seventeenth century Paris, where law and order is more of an idea than a reality. The producers promise a 
new, unexpected direction of the plot and also the show getting much sexier! Also, instead of the Cardinal Richeleu (played in a rather lifeless,
frigid and uninspired way by Peter Capaldi last year) now the four boys will have a new and deadly opponent – the Comte De Rochefort!
