Which means we don’t discuss an episode till it’s been on tv

After that it’s fair game

Anyway

When a terrorist campaign threatens the capital over the summer, bomb disposal experts Lana Washington (Vicky McClure) and Joel Nutkins (Adrian Lester) are at the forefront of urgent efforts.

They discover a potiental bomb factory in a London housing estate

( whispers but is filmed near to blondesland)

Looks good

Love both Vicky and Adrian as actors

The gas meter set up was a damp squib. No tension, just all over in first 5 mins. We'd waited a week for that!

Scottish police chap with machine gun is at every job. Him, the handbag and the brooch on Ma'am's shoulder have an appearance every week.

Too obvious for it to be John surely?

I used to live in Deptford and I don't remember any assembly halls. Wondering where it is has distracted me from the plot.

I just thought that even if they think they know it's John, surely they'd check camera doorbell footage to see if he was working with anyone else. Or do they think one person managed to rig up all those houses, and a car, alone and in between working shifts on his usual job? Weird.

True, Noisy, but look its dodgy Karl again!!!

NoisyBrain · 27/02/2022 21:39

Uh oh....

WingingItSince1973 · 27/02/2022 21:40

Here we go

TitsInAbsentia · 27/02/2022 21:40

FARKIN KNEW IT CARL YOU KNOBBER!

the80sweregreat · 27/02/2022 21:40

We all knew that Karl was dodgy
.. !

Jellykat · 27/02/2022 21:41

Bloody obvious... we couldve written this!

NoisyBrain · 27/02/2022 21:41

Lana to save the day then?

the80sweregreat · 27/02/2022 21:41

I hope she isn't pregnant by dodgy Karl . In true Soap style

Yeah I don't think I fancy him anymore...

WingingItSince1973 · 27/02/2022 21:43

We had a bomb scare in ikea Coventry 10 years ago. We were on the top floor just about to eat! We had to walk down the stairs calmly. About 6 floors I think but seemed such a long way. At the bottom I realised my friend hadn't made it down with her baby in a pram so I went back up to find someone else had helped her down. As it was it was a false alarm and we were all allowed back in to eat our meatballs 😬

TitsInAbsentia · 27/02/2022 21:44

Is Lana going to offer him a blowy to distract him whilst she deactivates his bomb belt?

NoisyBrain · 27/02/2022 21:45

@TitsInAbsentia Grin

NoisyBrain · 27/02/2022 21:46

Well, it would give a potential whole new definition to the term 'blow job'

TitsInAbsentia · 27/02/2022 21:51
Grin For the record, even though he's a baddie (typecast!) I still would Grin

@TitsInAbsentia haha, yes on reflection I retract my earlier statement and probably would too. I think it's because if you squint really, really hard, there's a vague look of Robert Downey Jr about him.

Oh...was

WingingItSince1973 · 27/02/2022 21:56

Oh yes Robert Downey Jr! That's who he reminds me of 🥰

the80sweregreat · 27/02/2022 21:58

Ok well , that's six hours of my life I won't get back. Dh wants to know what became of the Triumph ?

TitsInAbsentia · 27/02/2022 21:58

WOOF! RDJ all the way!

TitsInAbsentia · 27/02/2022 21:59

Oh dear, John was innocent all along then. Why run though, why not try to explain and help the team unravel the situation?

absolutelynotfabulous · 27/02/2022 21:59

So John WAS the stooge...
