Spooks 8 - 3

Not much Lucas aka Richard Armitage in episode 3. This one has its ups and downs. Continuity problems are the worst of it, and a sad ending is a very high point. My mind is cartwheeling and skipping about with excitement after seeing the episode 4 preview so no juice left for ep3.

Silly Blog Entry Warning

This isn't really a review of ep 3 but more like a mini fanfic about what was happening while Ros was tied up with the Bendorf group in the underground bunker. Jo and Lucas were getting bored waiting for the lift...

 They’d sent out tweets, poked facebook friends and caught up on their blogging.
“So…who'd you get for the Secret Santa this year?” asked Jo.
“Harry," he replied. "And you?"
“Ros. I’m getting her another stun gun. What’re you getting Harry?"
“Er…a Little Guy doll.”

“How did you get …with the horse?” She gaped her trademark deer-headlights look.

“No, just the Guy.”
“Who’s your source?”

“You know I can’t tell you that.”  He really couldn't, it wasn't his proudest moment.

Jo was secretly jealous of any man-doll wearing more eyeliner than her. "If you tell me, I'll tell you what your present is," she tempted.
Lucas walked around considering it.

"OK, tell me first."
"It's clothing...a pair of pants," she admitted, but said no more. Ros would kill her if word got around.

"Ok, I'll forward you my source's email," Lucas said.
