It is my newest guilty pleasure.

That blog is great, thanks for the link!

I love MG despite or perhaps because of the crap accent.

TheSmallPrint · 06/11/2012 18:53

Um I don't think RPJ is in it MsInterpret although I wish he was! Grin

MsInterpret · 06/11/2012 19:30

oh Blush

Was he in Spooks then, was that the reference?!

gingercat12 · 06/11/2012 19:56

RPJ was in Spooks.

Yes RPJ was Adam in spooks

TheSmallPrint · 06/11/2012 19:59

Yep the rather gorgeous Adam. I nearly cried when he blew him up.

Oh, ginger you are so not alone in watching Strike Back! Casting RA in the first series was genius because I probably wouldn't have started watching it. It's so very different now, but it is just as addictive. I do have quite low standards though!

MsInterpret Fowkes is played by the improbably named Lex Shrapnel!

MsInterpret · 06/11/2012 21:30

Yes, just spotted that on the blog! EasyFromNowOn It's got to be a...stage name?! Perhaps his real name is John Smith. Wink

EasyFromNowOn · 06/11/2012 22:43

no, according to IMBD his real name is Alexander Shrapnel, and the surname is also used by his father and grandfather so it looks like it might be for real Shock

I just watched half the first episode on my phone in the bath. It's..... intriguing. Shall I carry on watching?

gingercat12 · 09/11/2012 11:38

PseudoBadger Oh, yes. If you want to have a good laugh. It is very entertaining and stylish. Maybe take the sound off. The dialogue is wooden.

Pseudo And afterwards may I suggest you read the Guardian blog. That makes the show such fun!

EasyFromNowOn · 09/11/2012 12:18

tbh the Guardian blog is worth reading even if you aren't watching the show, it's very funny!

Am intrigued to know what's in the file the policeman gave to Turner Jr.

thecalpollady · 09/11/2012 12:19

Yep I'm glued to it too. Very dark!

cheeseandmushroomghostie · 09/11/2012 15:04

Marking my place to mock the accents to read later, just watched the last two episodes, I think next week is the last one, quite a lot to tie up isn't there?!

TheSmallPrint · 09/11/2012 16:49

So any the wiser after last night?

How did pouty get into the Drs computer? Even I've got a password on mine. Confused

And as pretty as Aidan is (and lets face it, he's worth a second look) his acting is so wooden it's painful!

LadyMargolotta · 09/11/2012 17:11

'How did pouty get into the Drs computer?'

I was thinking that. And she searched her own name? Many search engines remember what has been searched.

Still no wiser but can't wait to read the blog.

TheSmallPrint · 09/11/2012 18:05

Yes I thought that too - 'I know, I'll type my own name in the search engine cos that's a good idea!' Confused Grin

cheeseandmushroomghostie · 09/11/2012 18:08

The scene where Goebel pinned Sam down to the ground in broad daylight in a London straight, whilst Injecting her eye Confused made me think 'yeah, right'.... And the fact that Sam has been snooping in the turner house so much and jack hasn't noticed? But he suspects anything and everything else?!

Still love it though.

EasyFromNowOn · 09/11/2012 18:35

There's two more episodes to go.

gingercat12 · 09/11/2012 19:16

I really liked the fact that even the cast is reading the Guardian blog Grin

2 more episodes and then season 2 in Germany? Wonder how they can fill all that airtime. I hope with Aidan... Preferably just looking very hot. Why does not he reveal his real name?

On a different note I promised to stop watching Strike Back, as there is only so much nonsense I can take. But the next season will be shot in my home town again. Last time it made me feel so homesick... I'll have to watch it.

NicholasTeakozy · 09/11/2012 19:43

I watch it too. It's utterly bonkers and MGs accent is all over the shop. I forgive her 'cos she's cute.

SufferingLampreys · 09/11/2012 20:46

I think I need to watch some of this strike back
Where do I go about finding it?

EasyFromNowOn · 10/11/2012 10:22

You can't stop watching Strike Back, it's awesome!! It is as if someone made a TV show just for me, despite the occasional annoying bit (yes, Rhona Mitra, I do mean you).

Lampreys, it is on Sky usually. The last episode of series 3 is repeated at 1am Sunday morning on Sky 2. I'd guess you might be able to find it on On Demand via sky - there have been 3 series, but s1 was very different, it was all British, had Richard Armitage in it and was very good. From s2 it's been a joint Sky/US production and now it is very different.

You can find it in various places online and there are a lot of trailers and clips and stuff on youtube and on Cinemax.
