Our patroness is considered rather taking when she is animated

and the Vice Chancellor would like to remind you all of the importance of the wearing of a correctly tied cravat.

She loves it really.

ComeIntoTheGardenMaud · 01/08/2011 20:26

No, LadyDamerel.

::evil cackle::

My Spyware is very pared down.

Evidently

LadyDamerel · 01/08/2011 20:38

Sorry, Maud. I just can't help myself. Let me make it up to you.

OP posts:
TheSmallPrint · 01/08/2011 20:39

I can't open your link Maud, gis a clue.

TheSmallPrint · 01/08/2011 20:42

Mr Small is out on the town and I'm watching Spooks series 9 and still don't know why Lucas didn't just bump off Vaughn as soon as he started all this nonsense? Just shoot him Lucas!!

LadyDamerel · 01/08/2011 20:46

It's the Ros/Lucas 'My perfume is made from the Anal Glands of Cats' clip where they're bugging the house.

But if he bumped off Vaughn then you'd only have 2 episodes of Series 9 Grin.

No then we could carry on with the other spy stories and a nice new happy romance with Maya. Sorted. And he'd still be there at the end.

ComeIntoTheGardenMaud · 01/08/2011 21:01

But the male leads in Spooks never last very long and Lucas had already had several near-misses.

TheSmallPrint · 01/08/2011 21:05

Well one more series wouldnt have hurt. Poor beautiful tortured Lucas, I could have saved him if I was a fictional television character.

ComeIntoTheGardenMaud · 01/08/2011 21:08

::Hesitates to point out that one reason Lucas might have been tortured was that he lived with the knowledge that he had killed his best friend::

LadyDamerel · 01/08/2011 21:13

Although we never saw his body, did we? Just the panning out shot of Harry on the top of the roof and Lucas gorn.

Maybe when he's finished inhabiting Middle Earth, Lucas could make a comeback.....

OP posts:
TheSmallPrint · 01/08/2011 21:13

He didn't kill his best friend! He was just someone he worked with, they don't matter! Grin

DumSpiroSpero · 01/08/2011 21:14

Yes, Lady D - the thud and the car alarm going off could have been entirely unrelated Hmm

TheSmallPrint · 01/08/2011 21:14

That's what I'm hoping Lady D but I suspect it is a futile dream.

Change of subject, does anyone here watch Sirens?

DumSpiroSpero · 01/08/2011 21:14

Nice thought though Smile

TheSmallPrint · 01/08/2011 21:16

And the screaming and Harry's 'ewwww that's nasty' face when he looked over the edge.

It could have been a simple car crash I suppose?

LadyDamerel · 01/08/2011 21:18

Spiro, I've only ever seen it on YouTube with the sound off ::undercover ReseArch:: which is obviously why I missed those clues Grin.

Maybe someone just rear ended a parked car on the street below because they were distracted by Lucas's lovely bottom fleeing down the road.

::applies for job as Spooks script writer::

SupermassiveLBD · 01/08/2011 21:19

I suspect Massive would have it out in a trice Confused

You betcha. Grin

ROFL. you lot. I just had a lovely read and am trying not to grin like a loon while I ''check my serious and important emails''

LadyDamerel · 01/08/2011 21:23

Massive, to (mis)quote dear Jasper's creator this thread keeps me in a state of chuckling enjoyment and often elicits a weary "What are you sniggering at now?" from LordD.

OP posts:
DumSpiroSpero · 01/08/2011 21:24

Massive having it out in a trice Shock

How did I miss that one?!!!

TheSmallPrint · 01/08/2011 21:24

Glad were helping you survive Massive Smile. Make sure you keep your op covert though, you don't want to be discovered on the job as it were.

DumSpiroSpero · 01/08/2011 21:24

Oh, beeeeehave, Small Grin!

TheSmallPrint · 01/08/2011 21:26

You don't really want me to do you Spiro? Grin
