National Theater Live in HD

[A Cousin]

The Husband and I saw the first of our National Theater Live performances last night: A Disappearing Number. It was a brilliantly staged and acted, thought provoking play.

Two Spooks guest alums were in it. The first Paul Bhattacharjee who played Mohammad Khordad in 3.3. and 7.4. I recognized him immediately.

The other was Saskia Reeves who was the ill fated Sally Bernhard in 5.6 and 5.7. I recognized her from Luther but had forgotten about her appearance on Spooks. Loyal fan that I am, I kept thinking to myself that I would love to see Nicola Walker play the role Saskia Reeves played. Not that Ms. Reeves was not fantastic, she absolutely was. Its just the irony that I have them both pegged for the same role when they kind of did play the same role on Spooks. Of course, it didn't help that the character is named Ruth and is a woman of great intellect.

You see? Everything in the world DOES relate back to Spooks!
