The Night Manager? Anyone?

Cast of brilliance (who knew "House" could do a British accent?), story from an epic author, Auntie Beeb.

Great ingredients......

I really enjoyed that.

I hope the comment in the op about Hugh Laurie's British accent was missing a smiling face or have I earned myself a woosh parrot?

parrot to aisle 11, please!

Karl from the job centre (Good to see that promotion across departments within the civil service is possible!).

Wasn't the Asian guy, Olivia Coleman's sidekick, also from the job centre?

Yep, the Fraud Inspector, like I said

He was also River's replacement partner.

....And looking slightly better than when he had his eye gouged out in Utopia....

I finally remembered last night who Roper's right hand man, the short guy with the real dark edge to him reminded me of:

Tom Hollander

What's more disconcerting is his best roles always seem to have been "The Blithering Idiot" - there's a fantastic feature length "Thick of It" about a dossier relating to going to war. He just cracks me up in that every time he's on screen!!

Very good. Olivia Coleman is excellent.

Even as the dowdy forgetful mum in Green Wing she was excellent.

Very good in Broadchurch as well.

There was a bit of Green Wing kept coming through until her Sports Day explanation and exasperation scene at the end!

Overall, the show keeps it wonderfully tense throughout though.

Enjoyed it, but I think I missed somethings:

1. Where did he get the drugs to sort out the casino fella?

2. How did he dry his clothes after the pool incident?

3. How did the guards miss those lads in the back of the mini bus?

4. What happened to the kid who's life he saved?

Hope you were all paying attention.

1 Almost anywhere in the Middle East
2 Drip Dry... he's English remember
3 They were foreign Jonnys who don't have a clue how to shine a torch
4 See next season

Absolutely full of holes for the obvious - I agree completely about the wet clothes and the obvious follow up on our drugged friend. But it is a "suspend-your-disbelief" and typical romp through some great stuff. They get cleaned up after punch-ups and how do they get all those 'phones anyway....

Let's cut to the chase.


Wow - loverly....




Absolutely burst into laughter on the floor on the "James Bond Reference".... that was such an audacious move - I almost hope that history will prove to be true.....

Hddy's a cool cucumber anyway - but House is a better baddie!!!!
