Boardwalk Empire?

Ah sorry my bad bud

Need to get more coffee down me it seems!

On another note... this is certainly a slow burner, but its good in the respect of setting the scene and providing full details. Good watch

I thought that was only for spoilers for episodes which havent been aired in the UK? These episodes have been aired in the uk.

Or are we suspending for all episodes even if aired now?

only episodes not aired, adding the spoiler warning is appreciated

Phew, no problem, its the polite thing to do just in case anyone is a couple of episodes behind.

What episode number are we up to here? I'm trying to catch up being a late starter to the series.

The last one aired here was episode 7 (was called "Home"), this weeks will be episode 8.

No the episode with that in was a few episodes ago.

Wt... I've series linked all the episodes and thats the latest one. Are you saying there are later episodes?

Also, what the hell was that about (the potential spoiler I described), was he getting it off on it or something? Or was he trying to take the punishment for the Schroeder bird or something?

*SPOILERS BELOW*

Yea that was last weeks episode, are you sure you arent series linking the repeats rather than the first showings?

The episode you are describing is episode 6, we've just had episode 7 on and later this week is episode 8.

It was flagellation, some hardcore religious people hurt themselves in order to cleanse themselves of impure thoughts, he looked at the picture of Margaret Schroeder, for whom he clearly has a thing, but upon turning the picture over and seeing it said Aged 16, he then punished himself for the thoughts he was having.

Hmm I thought it was something like that. But... why turn over the picture of his wife and prop Schroeders picture up, while whiping himself?

Probably some thing where you must view the impurity of which you are cleansing yourself or something.

At one point, I thought he was going to 'knock one out'

But after he started taking off the belt, and marks on his back.... ding!

Tombstone · 8 Mar 2011 at 11:28

Yeah its a surprisingly widespread practice, even today.

Yup, look forward to it each week and it doesn’t let up. Shame that we’ve only got two episodes left in this series.

Episode 10 was brilliant

peterattheboro · 12 Apr 2011 at 16:36

Started watching this. It's brilliant!

Plenty of boobs too

NeverWinter · 12 Apr 2011 at 16:50

Finished watching it a while ago, really enjoyed the whole thing.

peterattheboro · 13 Apr 2011 at 13:16
