The thought of Alcazar trying to light his cigar during the wedding, as Jeeves said, is hilarious. Although, maybe Peggy would just elbow him because she also wanted one!

I knew you were just joking because people around here don't go insulting each other.

Yes! I can definately see both of them in tuxedos smokings cigars during the ceremony

Peggy wearing a tuxedo? That would be strange.

Can you picture her in a formal dress?

I know this has very little to do with Bianca in particular, but I came across this and I think this is the best place to put it.

In the English version of The Calculus Affair on pg. 5, row three panel two, where Jolyon Wagg and Captain Haddock are examinging the broken mirror, Wagg comments: "Oh! Had a tiff with the wife, eh?" The Captain replies, "I...it was probably the lightning." Why didn't he just say, "Uh, I'm not married?" Perhaps it was just because the whole situation with Wagg was ridiculous enough already.

This is also the album in which they meet Castafiore. Coincidence? Probably.
I just thought it was a curious, though probably useless, passage I came across.

Also in Calculus on pg. 1, the Captain claims he wants peace...

But I wonder: Do you think the Captain and Bianca could have a peaceful, happy, lasting marriage? Or do you think it would end?

Little Mijarka:

Actually, Tintin had met/seen her in two places already. He met her in the car on the road to Klow in King Ottokar's Sceptre, and he and Captain Haddock attended one of her performances in The Seven Crystal Balls. The Calculus Affair was just the first one in which Captain Haddock met Bianca.

Oh that's right! That's the direction I was trying to get at: that the Captain met her then and Wagg mentioned "wife." Do I feel stupid!

But like I said, it was just an odd, funny little tidbit I thought might go here.

This is a funny forum haha look i laughed,I think it would be funny to see anything like this happen but some thing tells me that the captain would get worked up and destroy the happy part of the day because bianca would start singing. On that subect does ayone think she sounds alright in the DVD'sÂ¿Â¿
