C4 starting tonight. Anyone seen anything about this? Looks interesting. Have I missed a thread?

Well I thought that was very good indeed. Cold war intrigue, tension, spycraft, it's got all the ingredients.

Oh. Also looking forward to seeing Herr General's daughter getting banged

Does Germany - esp pre-reunification - not have regional accents and idioms (I know there was a token idiom/expression translation lesson given, but there must be more to it than that)? How easy would it have been for an East German to blend in as a West German?

Any excuse.

What's not to like?

The fact we didn't get to see the secretary getting banged?

re the waitress, is it a tranny?

Certainly looked like it. Bore more than a passing resemblance to that there Eddie Redmayne in his new cross dressing film Danish Girl.

Yeah a few details have been lightweight haven't they. How did the bug end up in the hoover? Wasn't it securely screwed to the desk? Next minute it's on the floor being sucked up by the hoover.

Linda....couldn't remember her name.

Anyway,perhaps someone could answer this please.

When Moritz confessed to her about being a spy,did he confess to being East German or lie and say he was spying for West Germany ?

I was tired,watching on +1 and couldn't comprehend the subtitle quick enough.....

In the initial confession he confessed to being BND (West German) spying on the East Germans.

That particular car was the very light facelift that came out in about 86-87.

Subtle differences are a curvy dashboard, wheel trims and very slight details elsewhere.

Outstanding.
