About the community

This community is for fans of the 70s TV show "Arthur of the Britons", starring Oliver Tobias as Arthur, Michael Gothard as Kai and Jack Watson as Llud. Brian Blessed also frequently appeared as Mark of Cornwall.

Both series of 12 half-hour episodes are now available on DVD, so we can all enjoy them again at last.

Here, members can post and read slash and het. fanfiction, artwork, episode reviews, transcripts, personal anecdotes about watching the show, and discussion of any kind - deep or shallow - related to the show and the actors in it.

You need to join the community if you wish to read it.
You must be over 18 to join.

Membership requests from livejournal users whose journals have never been updated may be contacted for further information before membership requests are approved.

If you decide to join, it would be nice if you would make an introductory post of some kind - how long you have been a fan of the show, your favourite episodes - or just something about yourself.

Please put long posts behind a cut; if you don't know how, just drop me an e-mail.
Please do not cross-post to Twitter or Facebook.

When posting graphics, please respect the characters' physical integrity, and leave their heads attached to the bodies to which they belong.

When a post has been up more than 24 hours, you may not delete it, because you will be deleting other people's comments as well.

Play nicely with each other.


In memoriam

Please help us keep alive the memory of Michael Gothard, who played Kai, and who sadly took his own life in 1992.





'But thy eternal summer shall not fade
Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow'st;
Nor shall Death brag thou wander'st in his shade,
When in eternal lines to time thou grow'st:

So long as men can breathe or eyes can see,
So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.'

Shakespeare
