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.

Gangs of London. Oh dear Confused

Poppy & Branch. Feel pretty good about it.

Spiros from The Durrells is slaying dragons to rescue me, the adored love of his life 💕☺️

maggienolia · 27/04/2020 23:12

Thomas Cromwell and Henry VIII. Which seeing as they're both long dead wouldn't be much use to me.

EllaAlright · 27/04/2020 23:16

The gangs of London! Think they’ll save me though, so not too worried!

I'm thinking the dogs in Gardener's World would distract the kidnappers by being cute. Monty Don could surprise spray them with pesticide then hit them over the head with a shovel or spear them with a pitchfork. If I'm hiding in an underground bunker, he can rescue me. He can also bury those kidnappers under some paving slabs...

Pesky Blinders; I'd happily be saved by Thomas Shelby

suze28 · 27/04/2020 23:28

Peaky Blinders Hmm

Andahelterskelterroundmylittle · 27/04/2020 23:45

The Tiger King ... I blame Carol Baskin 👀

TheGrandHighWitch · 27/04/2020 23:57

Scorpion. Which is handy because after they rescue me, they can hack me a better credit score Grin. Have also been watching Call the Midwife so I am lucky that I didn't see this then!

Air Craft Investigation

I guess it's too late for me if they're recovering the wreckage and black boxes etc 🙈

OutOntheTilez · 28/04/2020 00:10

"Seinfeld."

I'm screwed.

Rebootingagain · 28/04/2020 00:18

Does porn count? If so I am all up for a kidnapping right now.

RebelWhoWashesFor19Seconds · 28/04/2020 00:22

Sam and Dean Winchester from Supernatural.

YES! I'M SAVED!!!

Or, what's probably more likely is that I'll be turned by whatever creature kidnapped me and Dean will have to take my head off with a machete, stab me in the heart with a knife dipped in blessed lambs blood or something and salt and burn my body.

Damn.
Not so good, actually.

Rumpole of the Bailey

I reckon one good writ of Habeus Corpus and Rumpole will have me out of there.

Icanflyhigh · 28/04/2020 00:27

Captain Jack Sparrow and Will Turner.

Yesssss!

FoggyNelson · 28/04/2020 00:28

I'm another one who's just watched Killing Eve, but I'm certainly not disappointed. Just imagine... if Eve and Villanelle decide to team up to rescue me, I doubt there are any kidnappers out there who could stop them.

There might be a few deaths in the process, but as long as it's not me, then that's fine.

Puffthemagicdragongoestobed · 28/04/2020 00:29

Phil and Kirsty! What a relief!!

ErrolTheDragon · 28/04/2020 00:46

Humans. We're part way through series 1 so it would be Anita doing the rescuing, politely and efficiently.

SkiingIsHeaven · 28/04/2020 00:52

I am in luck. It would be Chris Hemsworth. We watched Extraction which is about rescuing someone who was kidnapped and he was utterly badass and gorgeous.

He can rescue me any day.

Gene Hunt will come screeching up in his brown 1980s car, shoot the baddies and get me out of there. I can't wait.

The Gardeners World one is making me smile:)

TeaMeBasil · 28/04/2020 10:01

The Avengers - phew!! Grin

VictoriaBun · 28/04/2020 10:03

Watched Star Trek : Beyond not my choice but I think I'll be ok 👌

icebearforpresident · 28/04/2020 10:55

Bastarding fucking blippi 🤦‍♀️
