Rupert and Tom sizing Eoin up… what are you planning, boys? ;)

(Via)

The final story of series three was called The Coming of Arthur. Is it fair to say that you, as knights, had a hand in the coming of Arthur?

Tom: [laughing] I had a big hand! Well, I handled some rather large balls off a rock to help out with that -- that was my hand in it.
Eoin: I generally just use my own sword.
Rupert: I was in a dress in that episode so maybe I did.
Eoin: Rupert was a prelude to it. You just warmed everything up there, didn't you?
Eoin: When you watch Rupert's hair in 35mm slow-mo, that's pretty.
Rupert: Coming from Eoin that means a lot, you know.
Eoin: It does, yeah.
Tom: The king of hair.

RUPERT KNOWS ABOUT SLASH.

Have you not seen the slash fiction online? 

Rupert: Oh I’ve heard of that yeah.

Tom: The what? The slash fiction? What’s that?

It’s when fans take two characters from a show and write fiction about them that’s a bit more sexual…

Rupert: I’ve seen some of those. I’ve learnt some great moves from some [laughs]. It’s weird there was one about me and my wife on our wedding night and the stuff I did. I was like: ‘that’s pretty good’. 

Tom: You must have to search for that though, right? You Google Rupert Young and like, I don’t know, smut? 

Rupert: I think so. I have to say I don’t know what it was. Someone was forwarding it to me, genuinely. 

Eoin: You’ve probably written some of it, haven’t you?

Rupert: No, no, I don’t know how to type. There was a video as well, there were a lot of fanmade videos. When I was in it a couple of years ago, I remember someone putting a video together of Sir Leon and Morgana because we didn’t have a scene saying ‘oh, this will be great for them to be together’.

Tom: Isn’t there a Leon-Gwaine one?

Rupert: Yeah, Leon-Gwaine, Gwen and…

Eoin: You’re five minutes behind in the uptake here Harper, get with the programme.

Q: Percival, Leon or Gwaine? 
Rupert Young: Depends what kind of fight it was, whether it was a sword fight—
Tom Hopper: Yeah.
Rupert Young: —an arm wrestle—
Tom Hopper: An arm wrestle! [laughs] 

Interviewer to Eoin: And you rode your horse into a tree?
