As well as a bit of sun on that pasty skin, Roban needs to eat a pasty or two .... (he gives me the heebeegeebees) (sp?!?!)

Rowlers Marianne would have made him cassoulet and patisserie and fattened him up a bit.

Rowlers I know what you mean about Roban - he's like the walking dead most of the time!

Youmakeme oh I don't think there is a chance in hell of getting Pierre back unsoiled. Josephine is not likely to be holding back (but then who would?!)

Marianne would no way fancy that Mr Burns look-a-like
Parno, they don't cover all the exits on purpose, otherwise the programme would only last half an hour! And Laure couldn't say "putain" about 50000 times.

In a way, wish they hadn't tried to give Ms Kaarlson a reason for being a caaah, and wish they hadn't tried to make her a bit softer. Was happy just thinking she was an uberbitch. Some people just are. Didn't like her smile. It looked, well, wrong.

Slightly OT but does anyone play Montalbano bingo?
You know, glug of wine when he shrugs,
Glug when he eyes up someone else's food
Glug when some random woman throws herself at him etc...

Just as well I didn't decide to do it every time Laure said "Putain!" tonight, as Rowlers points out I would have been comatose by the end of ep 11 Grin

My pleasure re the BBC link Cremola Smile

Yes, why did they have him speaking English? DP and I both got the giggles whenever he came on.
I did think the way they portrayed the HLM was good - scary feeling on those housing estates. grim. Not sure how realistic though?
I'm always slightly uneasy about race ishoos on Spiral, too.

Montalbano bingo! Brilliant idea! There must be a bingo idea for all of them - glug when Kurt Wallander looks at nothing much on the beach, glug each time Gilou looks as if he's almost forgotten his lines ...

Or, if you want to stay sober; drink every time Laure or Gilou has a wash and a change of clothes.

Oh god Youmakeme you are sooo right. When she jumped out of Vincent's bed I thought, surely a quick shower and toothbrush?!

Rowlers it's a deal - we'll do a bingo for the next eurodrama Grin

Speaking of which, I am sure Young Montalbano will find some fans on these threads Wink

Youmakeme don't think Laure has changed clothes for 4 series.

Really enjoyed the last 2 episodes of Spiral.
My favourite bit was where Tintin saved Gilou's life at the hotel, and Gilou told him he'd snog him if there weren't people watching!
I love the way the members of the team look out for each other, and cover for each other when they cock up.

Laure wash - do me a favour that's why she's known as "dirty Laure" in this house - as well as for her multi man sex!
Ging (as we call the Kaarlson) - happy just doesn't seem right
Glad Tintin made it - he's my favourite - ok he's not as pretty as Phillipe but he's a bit more real.
Thanks for the link teej - look forward to it all - this week it's a Euro crime - German - so you know it won't be funnyGrin
Love the Montalbano bingo - still got a couple of episodes to watcg - we'll have to try it - not sure the wine rack holds enough bottlesGrin

He doesn't look much like Old Montalbano does he? Will he be as bandy? Interesting casting challenge....

Any more Montalbanos planned? I heard they weren't making any more, and I think they've all been shown. If it has been a UK series there'd have been a film by now.

They are all very touchy-feely in The Spiral, non? Obviously don't have the same sexual harassment laws over there!
