Things I learnt from watching Spooks

RE: Things I learnt from watching Spooks
That any location in London used for quiet meetings is just a 2 minute walk from Thames House.

That the Director General of MI-5 doesn't actually do anything. [I'm sure Jonathan Evans would raise an eyebrow to that one!]

That the Home Secretary has responsibility for pretty much everything that happens in the UK.

"Where's Harry?"
"Moving in mysterious ways."

All MI5 officers drive black Lexus cars.

All differences amongst upper-class politicians are settled in gentleman's clubs over a glass of scotch.

Countdowns are always bad.

(I keep looking suspciously at my microwave waiting for it to explode....)

Now cracks a noble heart. Good-night, sweet [Spooks];
And flights of angels sing thee to thy rest.

If you ever think you're being followed, pretend to tie your shoelace for a while and then walk in the opposite direction.

RE: Things I learnt from watching Spooks
If you see two people in a car sitting outside your house trying to follow you, phone the police and tell them that two people are making out in a car and that children might see XD I love Peter Salter, legend!

DANNY - Placements all over the shop. Back up vehicles, chopper support if we need it. Bomb disposal with a signal jammer for Mary’s trademark remote control blasts. And Tom here’s doing the catering. Mate. You are so covered.

It is almost impossible to actually drown in the Thames, especially if Adam is with you....

Lucas North: Your situation is more precarious than you realize, Connie, so stop pressing buttons and give us something.
Connie James: Threats don't work with a person who has nothing to lose.
Lucas North: Oh, you're too ingenious to think that I'm threatening you. I'm offering you a simple choice: help us or don't. I'll leave you to compute the implication.Cool

That all male MI5 operatives are ridiculously good looking! ( I fear I'd be disappointed in the real world haha)

Honey traps are naff.
I have not experienced that one yet but am looking forward to it. Now all I need to do is get caught up through S8.
