I found a video on YouTube of today's event in Cardiff with John, Gareth, and Eve.

Video is here, and it includes the helicopter landing and photo op. There's also a view of the huge queue for the HMV signing.

Title: All Bets Off: Chapter 4 – “Battle Lines”
Author: Lassroyale
Rating: R
Warning: Everything up to the Season Finale, just to be safe, angst, probable non-con and/or sadomasochism
Parings: Arthur/Merlin(eventual), Merlin/OMC(non-con)
Disclaimer: The pretty boys don't belong to me - they belong to each other and the BBC of course.
Word Count: 2841
Summary: When Arthur is tricked into a bet and loses, too late he realizes that he has just lost the most precious thing to him: Merlin

A/N: This is a much darker fic than my other Merlin story I have going and might end up being longer as well. While it will be eventual Arthur/Merlin, the ride there is rife with bumps and obstacles, savvy?

A/N 2: Henceforth my warnings will be in full effect. This chapter turned out rather differently than I originally intended, but when I had written the first draft things seemed too rushed for the general flow of the story. I hope you guys enjoy - please R&R!

Chapter 4 -"Battle Lines"

Found this site with pics of Peter from the "Fuck Forever" video shoot via Twitter - I didn't remember seeing the set before, so I thought I'd share. You have to go to Projects and then Pete Doherty to see the photos.
