Bodyguard - BBC1

[Violetroselily]

Anybody watching?

Quite enjoying it so far

Huge LoD fan so I have high hopes for this series

Members of the armed forces can voluntarily provide fingerprints and DNA profile PURELY for the purposes of identification in the event of their death in service. Even if they do provide these, they cannot automatically be used for identifying them as criminals or for any purpose outwith identifying their body in the event of their death in service.

I only just learnt Burt Reynolds died!

"normally live chatting online at the same time as watching TV, but this deserves and needs 100% concentration.
I'll see you all at 10.01pm" I suffer from very bad anxiety and as a result need to generally be doing 2/3 things at a time even if one of those things is "watching telly" but this is so absorbing it occasionally calms me.

👏👏👏👏 great poem defo pam ayers for the new Millenium

I don't think he'd have allowed a bomb through in a situation where innocent people with families could be hurt/killed. I really hope not anyway.

It's good you've got these poems time stamped, so we will have definite proof if Pam tries to rip them off on Twitter tomorrow.

I keep wondering if we're going to have a massive flashback where the events of the first three episodes are replayed from a different point of view.

@yetea

Yes, same guy.

Looks ragged in the 'Married' thing, and slick in Bodyguard. I think he's pretty dishy, always liked him - he's also recently been the baddie in Corrie. Often plays slightly dodgy blokes but am sure he's lovely really.

(wasn't that Married thing weirdly done??)

I wish I had a bodyguard, that bloke from Game of Thrones
By day he'd scan for danger, at night he'd jump my bones.
He'd be highly recommended, he'd really be the best
I'd wear a black silk Teddy, he'd not remove his vest

Ooh it's going to start

Yep subtitles on & back at 22.01

This is a lengthy recap

They're gonna pin it on PC Budd. I just feel it.

Did that forensic officer hide the fact there is a gun hmmm.

Yes it looked like she felt it and was then pensively deciding what to do

Are witnesses really interviewed like this? It's all a bit terse

I think maybe they are in internal investigations, which this is.

This is just so tense and cruel.

Those two cops are right knobs.

They're sco15, so anti terror command team, so I guess they would be pretty hard line.

Dave seems genuinely confused.

I guess it is shell shock and his PTSD going into overdrive.

Julia's other aide gave Mahmoud the briefcase. So surely the other guy planted it (via Mahmoud.) Perhaps Longcross and those shady people wanted Julia out before she could become PM

Did not expect that!

Ah he hid it in the light!

Didn't expect that twist.

Gosh that was unexpected

Me neither! Thought she'd pull through

Right she's dead.
And the gun was hidden elsewhere.

Honestly I think it was a police plot to kill her to remove the paper from the security services.

No way? Shocked.com!!!

So inside job by the security services, all parties played like a violin by them.
