When you walk down Albert Embankment (where H&R's bench is) while listening to the Spooks theme tune, sit on H&R's bench, take a picture of yourself sitting on it, take a pic of the bench itself, then continue down towards Lambeth Bridge while listening to the Spooks theme on repeat and doing the Spooks walk, then take sneaky pics of the real Thames House, then continue down to Vauxhall Bridge (still listening to the theme tune and walking like a Spook), decide not to get on the tube at Vauxhall and instead cross the bridge and walk to Pimlico Tube Station (even though by now it is raining) so that you can get better pictures of Vauxhall Cross as you cross the bridge.

. . . you just hear on the news that there's a new tropical storm forming in the Atlantic called Colin and you think, "Christ, he's playing with his gadgets again!"

Could probably file this one under "you know you're completely obsessed with Spooks when.."

Couldn't you just have:

"You know you're a fan of spooks when: you sign up to a forum to talk to other people about it"?

I think we've had that one several times over!

Probably... too good and obvious for me to have been the first! I consider my repetition of it a simple emphasis of it's awesomeness!

HAH! No worries. We have a forum in the Break Room going along the lines of: 'without spooks forum...' which also seems appropriate

Uhh...

...you are on a sailing boat on the Norfolk Broads and your friend who is a wildlife/bird watching enthusiast suddenly shouts out "Grebe!" I immediately thought she was talking about Oleg Darshavin and almost fell off the boat in surprise! She was of course talking about a pair of Grebes she had just spotted.
