...before the previous thread here rolls off a cliff.

Someone wanted a character list. I have, with a bit of help from Wiki, come up with:
The Mighty Carrie
Quinn aka Woopert. Most of us definitely would, despite the resemblance to a ferret.
Lockhart - once hated, now we have some grudging respect.
Saul - all that is right and good in the world, with a passing resemblance to Life of Brian man who hasn't spoken in years.
Dar Adul aka Salieri - what's happened to him?
Fara - once an IT fraud geek, now an intrepid hands-on agent who doesn't keep enough of an eye on her bin bags.
Martha, the nice ambassador
Denis, her nefarious husband
John, second in command at CIA Lahore HQ, we're warming to him
Aayan aka Pi, now sailing the heavenly oceans with a tiger
Sandy, former CIA chief, now pushing up the daisies
Aasar Khan, aka Raza, aka Hot Spooks Guy
Bunran Latif, the General, aka Art Malik
Haqqani, the craggy Taliban leader who prefers to shag next to a bearded man chained to a radiator
Tasleen, aka one of the Kardashians.

Have I missed anyone?

Oh how exciting! A Frannie Carrie Wink

YonicSleighdriver · 10/12/2014 20:44

Ambassador Martha is pretty kickass..

TheSpottedZebra · 10/12/2014 20:47

Wow, congrats! That is such terrific news.
You should probably call her Saula, as Saul is the only one who we know is truly good. All the others are open to interpretation.

That truly was one powerful episode. Are you both home and well now?

Hassled · 10/12/2014 20:50

Many, many congratulations :). In 16 or so year's time, you'll have to sit her down with the boxset.

Still in hosp after csection (planned but rushed since waters broke). Very happy! (Unlike Carrie...)

Which means I'm missing the Fall tomorrow but hopefully well and truly home for Sunday :)

TheSpottedZebra · 10/12/2014 20:53

Oh gosh, healing vibes to you.
Erm, is it safe to watch on Sunday? What about your stitches and your BP? The drama might do for them.

GypsyFloss · 10/12/2014 21:16

Oohh many congrats! A Homeland baby :)

WhyYouGottaBeSoRude · 10/12/2014 21:53

Oh rooners congratulations! That is fab news!! You definitely need a nod to homeland in her name, just to satisfy all of us of course Grin

Glad all is well and wishing you a speedy homecoming!

Roonerspism · 10/12/2014 22:39

Ah well, I will pretend she is a Caroline nn Carrie :)

(Not a Farah. DH fancies her. Strangely jealous in a hormonally odd way)

Roll on Sunday!! Have managed to resist googling for spoilers

ihatethecold · 11/12/2014 10:23

How about calling her Brodetta? Wink

HalleLouja · 11/12/2014 11:03

Dana is a lovely girl's name. Wink

Roonerspism · 11/12/2014 16:45

Dana..., I'm not missing her this series - not her father!

TheSpottedZebra · 11/12/2014 16:48

Wooperta?

Grin
TheSpottedZebra · 11/12/2014 16:49

No no, Bunny. After the General, and also after Katie Price's latest.

OttiliaVonBCup · 11/12/2014 18:03

Brodyerie.

Gawjus and unique.

Howaboutthisone · 11/12/2014 18:39

Congratulation rooners! I'm not surprised that last episode was a labour starter!

Fiderer · 11/12/2014 19:30

Congratulations Rooners Grin

I think Homie-Land has a certain ring to it. Homie for short.

Beats Sauletta anyway.

YonicSleighdriver · 11/12/2014 19:37

How about Claire Tracy Mandy after all the big CIA bod actors?

deadwitchproject · 11/12/2014 20:05

Congratulations Rooner! Please don't call her Dana Grin

I mentioned Saul's glasses as we were talking about how clean they were (after they were removed by one of the terrorist women - had they been tampered with etc.)

Hassled · 11/12/2014 20:08

Yay - Claire Danes has been nominated for Best Actress in a Drama Series for the Golden Globes! If she doesn't win it I will have a full scale tantrum.

Hope little Carrie baby Rooners is well.

Late to this thread as usual because I like to savour it and watch it onmy own. Finally watched it last night Grin.
I had to re-wind and watch car explosion scene 3 times in slow motion and I still couldn't tell what happened to Carrie's car. I thought it had escaped but then at the very end it seemed to show 3 burnt out wrecks.

CoolCadbury · 12/12/2014 10:34

secretsquirral they might have got out before it got burnt?

BingoBonkers · 12/12/2014 13:14

Congratulations rooner! Quinn is also a girl's name doncha know. I give you Quinn from Glee.

YonicSleighdriver · 12/12/2014 13:33

Or you can spell it Quynh, I think?

OneSkinnyChip · 12/12/2014 13:36

Congrats Rooners Smile I feel all Brody I mean broody Wink
