...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?

He feels compelled to dance, and Haqqani hates dance.

stonecircle · 21/12/2014 22:01

But who is Dar Adal/Salieri?

TensionWheelsCoolHeels · 21/12/2014 22:01

Maybe he has an evil twin. Anyone remember sunset beach?

OneSkinnyChip · 21/12/2014 22:02

Dar Adal is Salieri according to the handy character guide by Hassled.

funambulist · 21/12/2014 22:02

So, is that what Washington aren't telling Carrie? That they need her and Quinn to butt out because they have their own assassination plan?

OneSkinnyChip · 21/12/2014 22:03

Can't work out uf Salieri is there to pull the trigger or strike a deal.

OneSkinnyChip · 21/12/2014 22:03

Still at least Quinn lives to smoulder another dayWink

OttiliaVonBCup · 21/12/2014 22:04

A deal, most likely.

OneSkinnyChip · 21/12/2014 22:05

Excellent twist!

nearlyreadyforstatelyhomes · 21/12/2014 22:07

So old bloke from Washington is in the car with main terrorist man? Wtf!?

NeedaDiscoNap · 21/12/2014 22:08

That was so good! What an amazing twist at the end.

I say deal, DH says Washington sanctioned terrorism (lots of holes in his theory, which I enjoyed pointing out to him Grin).

Roonerspism · 21/12/2014 22:09

So now I'm wondering if salieri is there as some grand assassination an or a mole. If the former, does that mean ISI woman is turning?

Liked tonight - a bit slower but needed to me. I fear for next week!

Why are we closing the thread? In case spoiler idiot comes back?

OttiliaVonBCup · 21/12/2014 22:12

The horrible spoiler troll.
What a wanker that was.

TensionWheelsCoolHeels · 21/12/2014 22:13

I'm going off grid until about 21:55 next Sunday. I'll be buggered if trolly troll is going spoil my finale. I've got 3 bottles of Tia Maria as gifts for xmas & I'm going to really enjoy the last episode.

Cocolepew · 21/12/2014 22:17

Ohhh twist! Like it.

See you all next week at 10 sharp

Happy Christmas Xmas Smile

HalleLouja · 21/12/2014 22:18

Did I say I love Zaf? Think he's a good 'un.

I felt sorry for Lockhart. He has come across better this series.

As for the twist. Wow! If Zaf knows who he is Haqqani must do too. So not sure what they are up to.

waitingforgodot · 21/12/2014 22:21

another great episode! Am so nervous about last episode and I too will not be logging in til after the last episode for fear of spoliers.

waitingforgodot · 21/12/2014 22:22

spoilers even!

Blu · 21/12/2014 22:22

No, I think Zaf is an American asset on the black ops side, and Haquani doesn't know.

TheSpottedZebra · 21/12/2014 22:28

Oh, that was our last Homeland before Xmas. And what a festive show it was.

Merry Christmas, Homelanders. It has been epic.

nearlyreadyforstatelyhomes · 21/12/2014 22:29

I'm a homeland fan and have loved all four series, and thought I mostly got what the hell is going on but:

Who is salieri?
What are black ops?

OttiliaVonBCup · 21/12/2014 22:31

Black ops is when they kill whoever they have to.
Dar Adal was head of it. Quinn worked with him.

OttiliaVonBCup · 21/12/2014 22:32

It's not very legal and nice what they do, in general.

CoolCadbury · 21/12/2014 22:40

A bigger agenda/going on that we know nothing about. CIA, Taliban and ISI apparently working together. What a great twist. Can't wait for the season finale. When Salieri and Saul had the conversation at the beginning, I thought in the context, it was about Quinn but obviously not.

I really hope that Kardashian and Haqqani get their comeuppance.

CoolCadbury · 21/12/2014 22:45

Ok, am going radio silence on this thread too. See you next week.
