Ouch!

As we saw in Black Sails Season 2 Episode 10, John Silver said much more than that after having part of his leg taken off by some dastardly pirates.

Anyone familiar with the lore of Long John Silver knew a peg leg was in his future - but we didn't know it was coming.

However, Luke Arnold, who plays the character, said he was glad we finally got to this part of the story.

Arnold, sitting with Hannah New on the Nassau set in South Africa recently, talked to me about Silver losing a limb, how having Billy Bones back helped up the ante in Season 2 and the chance of Silver ever getting a love interest.

New, who we saw taken away from Nassau in Black Sails Season 2 Episode 9, broke down Eleanor's relationships earlier this season with the villainous Ned Lowe and also Vane, who was both her lover and enemy during the course of the season. 

What will happen in the next season of the Starz drama? The stars didn't give away much but let's see what they did have to say about the current season. 

Black Sails Season 3 will set sail in early 2016 on Starz.
