Below is a short scene that we wrote for the very end of Episode 10 (originally to come after the closing monologue). We filmed it, Tamla and Luca were brilliant in it but we felt it undermined the strength of what had gone before. I've posted it here for diehard fans to take a look at. Hopefully you'll see the echoes of d'Artagnan and Constance's first meeting from Season One...
You can download the entire script from the BBC Writers' Room website - there are one or two other 'deleted scenes' within it, not least an extra beat between Anne and Aramis.
And that's it for the Musketeers!
