The Our Girl Addicts Thread 64 Stay focused, Stay alert, Stay alive and carry on....spying

[Ilovelblue]

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.

"Something aint right here!" - yes right up there with "It don't feel right!"

Well, the final episode next week!

Confession time: I have now watched two episodes of Spooks. Just can't imagine why I never watched it when it was originally screened. I am hooked.

Thank goodness ilove - I was a bit worried about that 2nd episode. It had hundreds of complaints at the time, and always gets remembered. I think it's the only one that was controversial at the time, and I've never watched it again.

Sorry I went off the radar a bit towards the end. Was watching on iPlayer and using my phone to post. Well all these changes or what have you on Mumsnet did not go down well on my phone. Kept telling my wi if was wonky etc. Must admit I usually watch episode on my iPad and borrow DH's for posting. However Arsenal were playing Chelsea this evening and he watches matches on iPad so naturally no hope of me borrowing it. The only good thing at least Arsenal won.

I had to look away, I must say. It was rather gruesome.

Glad you are hooked ilove I am intrigued now as I can't remember episode two. Got through all 86 episodes during lockdown so suppose it is really obvious now that I am in need of watching it all again. Roll on.

How long did it take you to watch all the series Magi?

I know when we decided to watch Soldier Soldier, I thought I'd better refresh my memory. I watched all the original series as they were broadcast at the time but honestly could remember very little other than Robson and Jerome singing and then getting written out to pursue a singing career. I think it was the middle of winter and we were having some bad weather, so it was a good excuse to do a binge watch. Bit worried Spooks could end up the same!

I can see it happening for you ilove. Can:t really remember how long I just seemed to keep going and it was during the first really strict lockdown so I salved my conscience by thinking this is really all I can do in these circumstances 😇 as soon as each episode
ended I just seemed to drift into the next with no effort. Will try and steel myself not to do it again like that.

Ready for tonight?

I am here ready and waiting eejit for the very last episode - all those loose ends being tied up.

Standing by

Pressed play.

In position and just watching the recap...

Election day in Afghan. It's going to be tense.

This is all a bit poignant when you consider what has happened since this was filmed.

All that fuss for a visit lasting a whole nine minutes!

Very much so Rhu

Here's Cheese being nasty again

yup - wonder what CJ thought about the withdrawal from Afghan.

Yes, could be a bit dodgy confessing you impersonated officers.

Remember Molly musing about what would happen when they left Afghan and how it would all go...

Oh I do like Prof and even Throbber is growing on me. No time for Cheese though.

Cheese is a bad 'un. He's got his priorities all wrong.

Georgie has the all clear to start her duties again.

Yes apologise properly to Kingy. He deserves a proper aplology
