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 Having recently witnessed the demise of Adam Carter in the last series, he has been replaced by Lucas North.

I'm here! Got confused as I have been rewatching a couple of the Soldier Soldier episodes and had to swap the DVDs over.

Horizon? Hope it's nothing to do with the Post Office!

Not the same Horizon!

Doing the recap...the blurb for this episode sounds incredibly relevant, yet again.

How right you are. Very topical

Thank Goodness, we all know how good that was!

It almost looks like the FOB in OG3:1

They probably reused the props - this was only a few years before OG.

I remember when he used to sing that! I was very fond of Terry Wogan's programme. I cried a lot when he died. I met him once.

Who bets the hotel is not totally secure?

Rhubarb01 · 19/06/2024 21:06

Bet the daughter got Stockholm syndrome from her kidnapping.

Ilovelblue · 19/06/2024 21:08

All weirdly topical as you've already pointed out.

Now we know why Dimitri can sail a big tanker.

Not specific but implied.

I’m Sue they have used that upper storey space for spotting before.

Sure

Why do I always feel nervous about these progs now?

Magi84 · 19/06/2024 21:18

One minute she is telling Lucas to be quick then spends ages talking to him

Because we are Spooks viewing professionals and we know all the risks.
