The Our Girl Addicts Thread 71 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 the three series of of The Musketeers. There was a definite connection between Our Girl and The Musketeers in the delightful form of Luke Pasqualino. We are currently part way through series 8 of Spooks. Having recently witnessed the demise of Adam Carter in the last series, he has been replaced by Lucas North.

Not me for one

Yep, it was inevitable this would go wrong and there would be innocent victims.

Ashok deserves a medal...please don't invite the poor lad to join you, because that usually ends badly.

Well, you deserved that Lucas.

It's the season finale next week.

I was rather expecting ‘and I’ll never play football again’ from Ashok.
of course, if the new Home Sec is Nughtingale, explains why he was so hands off with the College.

I have to confess I nodded off towards the end.

Where are we on what to watch after this series finishes next week?

Happy to go with series 1 of Hustle if we are in agreement? I think it will make a welcome change as this has got pretty negative.

I very much like the idea of Hustle it is o much lighter than what we even following. Much a I have liked Spooks, and will be happy to come back to it after a break,have found these episodes lately either making me lose interest or just not keeping up.

Okay - never seen Hustle. My education continues.

Are we ready for the finale?

This series has been quite difficult to follow in places so I think a change to a different series is a good move for us. I seriously hope I manage to stay awake this week. I nodded off about 9.50 last week I think.

Ready and waiting and yes hope it is easier to follow.

Pressed play

Doing the recap.

Evening, doing the recap.

On recap

This reminds me a bit of 'Tomorrow Never Dies' and the press magnate orchestrating conflicts all over the world.

This latest CIA chap seems a bit gung-ho.

Is he double-crossing too?

oooh, dodgy, "I knew him at Cambridge!" No one dodgy has ever come out of Cambridge have they?

There she is. The double-crossing witch!

Perish the thought!

New Hone Secretary seems a bit sure of himself. I was at Cambridge with him old boy. Thinks that will swing it.

I think there are a few of them around like that!

Yep, mate. You don't compare with our Lucas.
