The Our Girl Addicts Thread 65 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 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.

Sorry ladies
I won't be joining you this evening as after managing to avoid it for two and a half years I have finally succumbed to Covid. So far, apart from a very sunny nose and loss of taste and smell, not doing too badly. However the effort to keep my eyes open is very challenging! So lasting past 9pm is not an option! Wouldn't want to drift off in the middle of an episode. So will hopefully read your comments tomorrow and watch the episode when I can. Enjoy.

[Magi84]

That is "runny" by the way rather than "sunny"

[eejittwo]

Oh, dear, Magi, too bad. Hope you feel better soon and can read up on our comments later.
Take care.

[Ilovelblue]

Sorry to hear you've succumbed to the lurgy Magi and hope you start to feel better soon. I loved the sunny nose!

[Ilovelblue]

Pressing play now. Episode 5 of series 2.

[Ilovelblue]

Doing the recap.

[Rhubarb01]

magi so sorry to hear the lurgy has finally reached you. Hope you feel better soon - bet you could do with a bit of Georgie TLC....second thoughts, make that CJ or Elvis TLC, far more effective.

[Ilovelblue]

This is a bit confusing - a series of terrorist attacks?

[eejittwo]

Oh, it looks like Elvis and the boys on the Manchester bus

[Ilovelblue]

Elvis, CJ or Adam Carter maybe Magi?

[Rhubarb01]

Sounds like another fun day at the office for Ruth....

[Rhubarb01]

Here we go, Tom is about to meet the mad girlfriend.

[Ilovelblue]

Tom is off to meet his bunny boiler girlfriend. She's given him some air tickets! Much more exciting than printing them off on your home computer like we seem to do these days.

[eejittwo]

Determined walking across the bridge

[Ilovelblue]

Yep, she is unhinged.

[Rhubarb01]

Yet another woman who won't accept his job. Blimey she is very demanding.

[eejittwo]

He can’t go to Egypt.

[Rhubarb01]

Mind you, I don't suppose it would occur to her that Tom couldn't go to Egypt like a normal person.

Another holiday suggestion...blimey a barge in Norfolk - that sounds exotic.

[Ilovelblue]

Colin's idea of a fun weekend is definitely not mine.

Oh look it's Joy Wilton/Violet Buckle.

[eejittwo]

Maybe that’s been my mistake - never made ultimatums, heavy demands.

[Rhubarb01]

It's Joy!!! She's come up in the world....."Tone!, Tone!"

Poor Zoe. She must be so humiliated.

[Rhubarb01]

Lots of acronyms tonight...love an acronym

[eejittwo]

It is so Joy. But she was on her way before she left Soldier Soldier.

[Rhubarb01]

So, is this real or not. Scary isn't it.

[Rhubarb01]

Is "Turnstile" that nuclear bunker in Wiltshire?
