We started to follow Our Girl back in 2014 and although there will be no further series, 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 have now agreed to watch the old BBC series of Spooks and are currently in the middle of series 2. Please join in if this grabs your attention.

other shows I recommend on similar vein, to spooks, are alias, (espionage too) covert affairs, (that one is espionage) person of interest. (Part covert ops)

Hi ladies - I’m not around this Wednesday, but can do Tuesday or Thursday if either suits.

Magi84 · 22/08/2022 18:54

I think ilove mentioned Thursday 25th when we were shuffling around dates a couple of weeks ago. Fine with me.

eejittwo · 23/08/2022 18:58

Fabby - Thursday’s good.

Ilovelblue · 24/08/2022 18:29

I'd totally forgotten we weren't doing Wednesday! Good job I checked in!

Are we ready?

OP posts:
Magi84 · 25/08/2022 21:00

Yes

Ilovelblue · 25/08/2022 21:00

Just doing the recap.

A strike by Underground workers? This could so easily be 2022!

A tad behind - like the cow’s tail.

Ilovelblue · 25/08/2022 21:02

Ooooh, army uniforms alert.

Have we got Rhu on parade?

OP posts:
Magi84 · 25/08/2022 21:03

Oh we've got the military in this episode

Rhubarb01 · 25/08/2022 21:05

Yes, I'm here. I was looking for my laptop charger...can't find it though, so hope I don't run out of power.

Yes, all sounding a bit familiar on the strike front and yes to some military action!!

Ilovelblue · 25/08/2022 21:05

Now, is Tom ex-army or is this something else where he is in a role play?

OP posts:
Magi84 · 25/08/2022 21:06

Oh this is our sort of programme

Rhubarb01 · 25/08/2022 21:06

Well, perhaps that will be the next on the list of striking personnel...the army!

Ilovelblue · 25/08/2022 21:07

I will tell you my meeting a real life soldier today at the end of our watchalong.

Rhubarb01 · 25/08/2022 21:07

On manoeuvres again. Oh blimey!

Rhubarb01 · 25/08/2022 21:09

I'm guessing that Tom must have some military training or he'd find this very difficult.

Rhubarb01 · 25/08/2022 21:10

So Major Curtis is a bit of a Chris Ryan by the sounds of it.

Rhubarb01 · 25/08/2022 21:11

Methinks that is a pin with a camera in it.

eejittwo · 25/08/2022 21:12

The troops back home are fairly mutinous too!

Rhubarb01 · 25/08/2022 21:13

Well, if they can't plan a surprise birthday party, no one can.

eejittwo · 25/08/2022 21:14

So that’s it - annual trading with Special Forces - is Spanner around?
