Ben Kaplan - Tranquility - 07-08-2009 05:15 PM

Poor bloke, I didn't really like him to begin with (actually I hated him) but I did feel rather sorry for him. Not a nice death at all. Other thoughts?

I actually liked his character... he was a good addition.. and just settling into the spook life.

His murder was pretty horrible... dealt with in the usual "sensitive" fashion! Tongue love it.

hmm I think the thing I didn't like about him was his relationship with Jo. I always imagined Jo and Zaf together. I guess it wasn't Ben's fault but anyhoo. Tongue

Did you imagine them together because of their marriage IRL or because their characters were good together? lol.

I can see why Ben & Jo were put together.. both journalists who were recruited into MI5, Jo saw herself in hima little bit.. that's why she was sympathetic to him.

It was a bit of both I think. I thought they'd be a good couple to start with but their marriage IRL is cute Big Grin

I thought he was OK, clearly the new boy making the odd cock up. Thought he might have settled in if given more time.

Jo's hot though Wink

He did seem to be a natural spook, but I found him quite irritating at times.

I liked Ben. I must confess that when Connie did for him it really stunned me. The aftermath i.e. when he was discovered, left me feeling quite emotional.Sad

Amazing acting, just an irritating character. But it was definitely emotional.

Wait a minute! This is offtopic, sorry, but I'm shocked, are they (Jo and Zaf) married in real life? really? What a wonderful couple!!! I dind't know Rolleyes
