Sex & Nudity
-
- The show has many pre/post-coitus scenes. In some characters are naked but a woman's front and everything from the waist down are always covered. During these scenes their are mild sexual references.
- In the first episode of the second series a dream depicts two characters during sex but they are both covered.
- In season 2 episode 1 when woman is bathing and takes off towel rear nudity is shown, nothing else
- Most of the female cast wear typical French period dress that reveals the top of their cleavage.
Violence & Gore
-
- Many physical, sword and gun fights are depicted.
- In series 1 there is very little blood (in the first episode, the only blood scene is after the wound, i.e. blood pooling on the grass around a dead body, bloodstain on clothes around a musketball wound). There are swordfights and shootings, but actual impacts are cut around, obscured or offscreen.
- The show becomes more violent in the second series, frequently showing people stabbed and shot. There is more physical fighting, with some characters having their necks broken. In one scene a man is stabbed out of shot but his body is then dragged across the floor leaving a trail of blood.
Profanity
-
- Extremely mild. Very few D*** and A**.
Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking
-
- The title characters all frequent a pub and drink. Athos is seen drinking his sorrows, and it is implied he does this every night.
Frightening & Intense Scenes
-
- Very little. In the first episode, the only action scene not portrayed as a swashbuckling jovial adventure is the cold open, but that scene is not particularly intense. A character is due to be executed, but is saved when he is pardoned before he is about to be shot. However, as he is clearly one of the leads, there is very little doubt that he would actually be killed. A woman, who has been caught adulterating, is executed offscreen. She had been sobbing and pleading for her life before then.
- One scene depicts the death of innocents due to a mistake by a lead character.
