As you may know, [livejournal.com profile] delgaserasca has posted about a Spooks rewatch over on[livejournal.com profile] spooky_doings and as I have the day off today I decided I'd make a start (I will inevitably fall behind and not finish this thing in time for the film release, so nobody expect anything from me). 

s1 ep1


- the s1 DVD menus were really well designed.

- I realise how redundant this is but everyone looks so YOUNG. 

- I don't want to just repeat everyone's names in ALL CAPS, so imagine me doing that periodically throughout the episode.

- FAKE THAMES HOUSE! (I work near there so this is always hilarious, also I went round it once on Open House weekend)

- "When did you tell your wife that you're a spook? When you met, when you married?' 'Just after we signed the register. Well, I like to have things on paper, don't you?'

- I am impressed by how much of this I am actually remembering 

- I'm finding the music really intrusive. Hopefully it calms down in a few episodes' time. 

- TESSA!

- I'll spare you all my thoughts on the series of BT adverts with Esther Hall (Ellie) and Kris Marshall and then the next generation with the annoying students. 

- I like that they at least started off not setting everything in London.

- Has Matthew MacFadyen ever played a character with a sense of humour? 

s1ep2

- Danny and Tom go running by the river and I bet it doesn't look anything like that now.

- Uggggggh I think we all already knew this guy was a total shit without him beating his wife. There really is no need for adding misogyny to villain characters. 

- Oh, Danny.

- Everyone (except Tom and Harry) is so nervous and worried they're screwing up all the time. 

- Deep fat fryer! 

- Container yard! I do look a good container yard chase/running/hiding sequence. 

- Oh, Tom. 

- so many funerals in this show. SO MANY.
