We started to follow Our Girl back in 2014 and although there will be no further sries, we do revisit from time to time. We have watched all seven series of Soldier Soldier to keep up our military terminology and have galloped through all three series of The Musketeers. There was a definite connection between Our Girl and The Musketeers in the delightful form of Luke Pasqualino. We are revisiting series 2 of Our Girl currently but when this has come to an end, we have agreed to start watching the old BBC series of Spooks. Please join in if this grabs your attention.

Great - see you on the 25th.

Okay, so I am a bad, wicked and evil person, but does anyone else think that Matthew’s boss looks like a cross between Putin and Daniel Craig?

Ilovelblue · 14/05/2022 11:32

Haha eejit. i can see the Putin connection but not Daniel Craig. A fatter version of Putin. I think Peter Firth plays a good part as Harry. A sort of pompous top civil servant with a sharper mind than he really appears to have.

It’s the slightly pursed lips thing that DC sometimes does.

Although I didn’t want to see, can anyone bring themselves to say, briefly, how Helen died?

Magi84 · 19/05/2022 17:40

Really difficult eejit thinking about it makes me shudder. Suffice to say it took place in a kitchen where there was a very large vat of extremely hot cooking oil.

Ilovelblue · 20/05/2022 22:09

Well described magi.

I must share this. I was out for a rather glitzy meal tonight (a belated birthday present) and our waiter, I swear, could have been Luke P's younger brother. Same facial features, tall, dark and floppy hair. Very cute indeed. Sadly less than half my age.

Couldn’t have been LP himself, researching a part, or ‘‘resting’? Grin
That’s what I thought, Magi.

This guy was early 20s and a strong Scottish accent. He was called Leo. I'd have taken him home, that's for sure

Are we all ok for episode 3 tonight?

Rhubarb01 · 25/05/2022 20:27

Will be with you on parade at 9pm or should I say on the grid?

Magi84 · 25/05/2022 20:56

All OK here

Ilovelblue · 25/05/2022 21:00

Get you Rhu! Yes, we need the new lingo I guess.

Pressing play now.

Pressing play....now!

What's going on here? It's Tessa who Tom really dislikes and me thinks she is being followed?

Ilovelblue · 25/05/2022 21:01

Here comes more new lingo to learn "What's your legend?"

Rhubarb01 · 25/05/2022 21:01

ooh, Zoe is going undercover.

eejittwo · 25/05/2022 21:02

Well what’s happening here?

Ilovelblue · 25/05/2022 21:02

That's a rather interesting coat he is wearing.

OP posts:
Rhubarb01 · 25/05/2022 21:03

Yep, the two go hand in hand don't they, Zoe...PR and a bit of bull...

Magi84 · 25/05/2022 21:04

Getting complicated already. Yes the coat is something to behold

Rhubarb01 · 25/05/2022 21:05

We will be bi-lingoed by the time we finish all these series and able to speak military and spooklish.

Magi84 · 25/05/2022 21:05

Is that a promise or a threat Rhu

eejittwo · 25/05/2022 21:06

Ah, PKK, obvs, or whatever they are called. I’ve rather lost track of all the terrorist groups over the years.

Rhubarb01 · 25/05/2022 21:06

Is that a familiar face from Soldier, Soldier?
