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.

Heavens ladies, so sorry but I realise I must have fallen asleep. I think in all the watchalongs we've done in however many years, this is only the second time I've done it. Ooops. I'm in disgrace.

Sleeping on duty...court martial offence ilove. Can you think of a senior officer you would like to represent you? Tough call...CJ?....Elvis?...CJ?...Elvis? - you'll still be wavering next week, I imagine 😁

I'll go with Elvis as first choice, followed by CJ and maybe it's time to confess I am more than a bit in love with Adam Carter. There, I've said it Rhu.

Yes, the power of RPJ - brings back memories of the firelight wrestling bouts many threads ago. I'm sure his hat was in the ring. That was hilarious! I am a fan of The 39 Steps and his version of Persuasion but Adam certainly displays a lot of grit in Spooks.

You have no need to keep it a guilty secret ilove as I too found Adam Carter very much to my taste. Also Rhu Persuasion has always been my favourite Jane Austen book and RPJ in that TV version of it helped to make it even more real for me.
All on the same wavelength yet again

Have we seen him yet?

No eejit you will have that pleasure in series 3

Oooh!

I will try to stay awake tonight ladies!

If we don't see a post from you at least every 5 minutes, we will be worried you have gone AWOL again ilove. Best set yourself an alarm!

Sorry I unexpectedly won't be able to join you this evening. I will read all your comments tomorrow and make sure I watch the episode soon. Be with you all next week though. Enjoy.

I’m ready and waiting

I'm here and getting the DVD up and running.

Yes, me too. Just setting up

Doing the recap now.

Here we are Danny is keeping things under suveillance. Looks like something bomb related going on.

I'm sure a lot of the surveillance jobs must be hellishly boring.

The man with the enormous bushy beard looks rather like an ex boss of mine facially.

They must have someone on the inside...they have worked it out.

Ouch! The young lad must be an infiltrator for MI5?

I can't look.

Oh blimey, now they know what's happened!

I think that is what is called the bastinado.

Danny matchmaking for Tom. Looks like the doctor was keen on him.

If this series is around 20 years old, some of the stories are incredibly current.
