You’ve been kidnapped- rescuers are in last film/programme you watched

Who is coming to save you and how do they do it?

I’ve been rewatching New Girl. Jess and Cece stage a cute distraction involving hats whilst Nick and Schmidt snuggle me out of the air vents, just as Winston and his cop buddies arrive. I recover by cuddling Furguson and playing True American in the loft.

You could set Eddie on the kidnappers @Charley50

Really enjoying this thread, I'm in the middle of series 2 of Lucifer so would be fine.

I am greatly entertained at the number of people being rescued by Martin and co from Homes under the Hammer - at least there would be an appropriate soundtrack while the rescue was carried out! Grin

I watched Fantastic Beasts so it's Eddie Redmayne as Newt Scamander
Should be fine there. Plenty of magic and amazing animals. Nifflers and Bowtrucles!

I watched Blaze and the Monster Machines last (I have young DC), so I'll be fine. They will use some kind of physics/engineering and turn Blaze into whatever is needed to rescue me.

The Property Brothers Brother vs Brother (or whatever its called)

Maybe Jonathan and Drew can renovate my bathroom after the rescue.

Classic casualty so at least they can help if I'm injured

NaviSprite · 27/04/2020 16:01

Well the last programme I watched was Peppa Pig with my DTwins this morning! But considering Miss Rabbit has EVERY job including a rescue helicopter I secretly think she’s a badass Grin

I’m playing FF7 the remake as well currently so for any fellow nerds I’ll have AVALANCHE coming to the rescue, there’d probably be a lot of explosions....

After Life; I call out "Brandy! Help me! I'm down the well!", the dog is two miles away in Ricky Gervais's living room but hears me and finds a way to lead Ricky to the well. Unfortunately, at that moment the kidnappers appear brandishing a gun, but Ricky tells them a touching story about his dead wife and they burst into tears, pull me up out of the well and apologise. We all hug.

Frazzlesandacoke · 27/04/2020 16:20

Twin. Not convinced I'll be rescued at all seeing as the local police failed to notice a murder had happened and the wrong body at the autopsy. Not much conversation for me either seeing as I speak zero Norwegian.

Lessstressedhemum · 27/04/2020 16:23

Outlander, so I'll be just fine. Jamie Fraser can rescue me any time😍

derxa · 27/04/2020 16:28

Tipping Point. Ben would smarm them with his charm.
Bad Teacher Cameron Diaz would distract them with her short shorts and her cunning plans

Lovelydovey · 27/04/2020 16:29

Elsa, Ana and co. I think I’d stand half a chance!

TheChippendenSpook · 27/04/2020 16:30

Phineas and Ferb! I think I'll be fine Grin

sqirrelfriends · 27/04/2020 16:31

Brooklyn 99. I'll be ok, eventually.

MrsBuckette · 27/04/2020 16:31

Gangs of London. I'm not sure if this is a good or bad thing 😬

Chesntoots · 27/04/2020 16:32

The Detectorists....unless I am buried with a hoard they will never find me! Actually, even if I am buried with a hoard I don't fancy my chances...

JaneJeffer · 27/04/2020 16:33

Outrageous Fortune. Think I'll be ok. Bette Midler and Shelley Long will set me free all whilst running around in high heels.

PenguinsOnParade · 27/04/2020 16:34

Manifest. Might not be too bad, depends on the callings.

30daysoflight · 27/04/2020 16:35

Eggheads hahaha

Bloodylegoeverywhere · 27/04/2020 16:36

Sons of anarchy so I think I will be ok ...😆

JaneJeffer · 27/04/2020 16:37

Grin that's a whole other thread

Fanthorpe · 27/04/2020 16:38

@MrsBuckette me too, I think we’re not surviving the process...

squiglet111 · 27/04/2020 16:39

Last watched Men in Black so happy that Will Smith will save me 😊

countdowntonap · 27/04/2020 16:39

Ooo, Netflix’s ‘Toy Boy’. Definitely fancy getting rescued by these...

Zisforstripyoss · 27/04/2020 16:41

Technically it would be the animals at Longleat. I think they'd do an ok job if they worked together.

Humans would be the teams from Race Across the World.

I think I'd prefer the animals, tbh!
