Academy of Armitage Studies -- the Research continues

Welcome to our newest faculty building. Make yourselves comfortable and ignore the smell of paint. We cannot keep up with the demand for new premises.

Apparently RL applications to MI5 have dropped off massively as a result of Spooks, especially from women. They had a recruitment drive recently to try and prove that the job really mostly involves faffing about tracking and analysing data on computers not chasing terrorists through London with firearms!

Oh my oh my oh my, what a photo, MrsLNP!!! OK, Stripes, say £25k for your DVD in that case? :)

Holly, be honest, did you get a little frisson of excitement when JP followed you? I did :)

Opaque, no matter about being MIA - there is a big, brave soldier a few links above who will come and rescue you!

How funny about MI5 applications dropping off! However, you'd have thought that with Tom, Adam, Lucas and possibly Dimitri, the applications would have tripled!

I thought they liked Spooks to date within the profession, as they've already been vetted?

I am not at liberty to divulge such information.

Russian shenanigans in Series 8? Am getting Series 7 for Christmas. Determined to hold out til February for Season 8 as price will no doubt drop when 9 is released, however I may struggle a bit with that resolution I suspect...

Twitter Tom Quinn just called me lovely.

How many Spooks are you following Twiggy?!

Is your DD on the mend now?

Right. I'm off to a party. While I'm away, be good. And if you can't be good, well, you know the rest.

Twigs, yes to the frisson re JP. Even more so now I saw that photo MrsLNP posted. Swoon!
Thinking I may apply for MI6 as well as MI5. To hell with the attrition rate, the company would be so good while it lasted.

So sorry you didn't like my little boat trip, Missy. Cap'n Sparrow is always good for a laugh in my book.

Mrs LNP, the Russian bit isn't very long. But it's wery lyuvely.

Have fun, Missy. Is Johnny comi9ng along?

- and all the nice girls love a sailor - but guyliner in that industrial quantity does not, err, float my boat.

Right. Off I go.

Oh, that was fun, I do like a bop.

And just to show it is possible to find a Lucas vid that doesn't make you want to sob your heart out,

There is even a shot of the Russian glasses.

Enjoy!

Sorry I haven't been around tonight - been on Twitter

I am following many Spooks on Twitter and I'm also friends with Lucas North on FB

Fancy a beer?

Hi Oyster! You can have the beer, I'll just go for the nibbles.

It seems everybody is busy tonight so I'm acting as caretaker, while I do other things.

Evening, my loveliesh.

Looking at that Lucash vid (for which many thanksh) made me wonder whether there wash a vid to Tainted Love, which the comely Msh Rihanna was ripping off shampling there.

I have crossed the Rubicon tonight. I am no longer following any Spooks on Twitter (I may have shed a tear as I unfollowed Harry). I am freeeee.

Prairie - I would enter that in our unflattering photos competition. Who lent him all those extra chins?

Oh, Missy, that's a bit harsh. Are you sure you are not seeing double?

Why the unfollowing, is everyone as bad as TTL?

Tainted love, eh. That was a natural, if ever there was one.

My vision is tip-top, I assure you, at least it is once I have my pince-nez on. But whereas some of the offerings for the unflattering photo competition were (I thought) entirely unobjectionable, there is something odd going on there that makes Mr (I think) Mulligan look strangely and uncharacteristically jowly. It's the photographer I hold responsible, for failing to capture the ineffable ooohness of the subject.

I unfollowed because I see no point in following while Spooks isn't actually on and the Spooks are actually bored teenagers plundering the Viz Book of Smut.

'Twas a pity, I thought, that the picture quality on Tainted Love was not very good, but it does confirm the size of the archive, that every song you might expect to have been covered has been. In TL's case, thrice.

Yes, I saw the TL one about Guy and the Sheriff, but i didn't want to go there. It was bad enough having to see Guy on his knees so often

About the photo, I can more or less see what happened, the light was falling on all the wrong bits. I think it is Mr Mulligan too, I remembered the red upholstery.

I expect you are off to bed now, tiring work, partying

Don't quit quite yet! Am preparing a treat for you ....

Okay, you've twisted my arm. BTW John Porter posted a very michelangelian photo of himself in his jeans on Twitter tonight.

Actually, on closer inspection, this isn't quite what I thought it was going to be.

More late night sauciness from the archive.

Warning: you may want to skip a few seconds from about 1.35, as it's That John Porter Scene.

Yes SAH !

I do enjoy a bit of late night sauciness
