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 Having recently witnessed the demise of Adam Carter in the last series, he has been replaced by Lucas North.

Which bloke? The mark was in Sharpe.

So, the team has been formed...but what is the con going to be?

I think the mark was also in Spooks playing a baddie.

So, they are making the greedy mark think he has now met a very wealthy man, who presumably will have some sort of deal to put to him.

Marc Warren always looks slightly creepy / threatening, don’t you think?

Marc Warren was a villain in Musketeers. Here is now the card sharp. Much younger of course

Yep, don't like him as Van der Valk much either.

Totally agree, yes.

Looks like they are going to reel him in by showing in a quick profit and then persuade him to put in a lot.

I love 'The Sting' - lots of Argentine Tango music going on .

A few months to wait Rhu for Strictly!

I suppose he glued the cashpoint shut and will just unseal it and take all the money at the end.

So, Danny has decided to get in on the con without being asked.

I enjoyed that punch at Marc

Ouch!

Does that make me a bad person?

Poor Marc Warren, but his character is very irritating.

I used to have a pleated skirt like that.

Nifty trick for opening a locked door.

Me too

Well, you'd be hauled up in front of HR for that one, Danny and out on your ear!

So, they only go after the greedy and dishonest ones, so we don't need to feel sorry for them.

Can you imagine it? The receptionist in my last job would have screamed the place down. As I suppose I would have done in her position too!

If looks could kill!

Yes if I remember correctly the whole series is built on conning types who have done the dirty on others or are nasty types in general
