The Musketeers

I have found a new tv series, BBC's The Musketeers. The series is based on the characters in Alexandre Dumas's The Three Musketeers. Ten episodes have been produced in Series One which aired from January to March 2014 in the UK. It started in the beginning of March in Sweden, we have aired 2 episodes so far.
It's said that the series has been commissioned for a second series!! ^^
As I have always liked the "story" Three musketeers this felt like a MUST see show and so far, I'm very pleased ^^
Also this is a BBC production, so there's no wonder it has been a hit!! ^^
