On the set of Spooks!

lol!! It's true! A strange thing though, can't imagine them together!

[JHyde]

I know - I joked about that elsewhere! To put it in context though, it's very possible to have fantastic chemistry as friends both on and off screen and have that misinterpreted. I'm often asked if I'm dating my duet partner because we do daft things that can be misinterpreted. But he's gay so it's really not likely. I like the rapport between Harry and Ros, and Hermione and Peter are both really funny, so I can see them getting told to sit on the desk together and they both mucked around for the camera.

Wow, my head deals with some rubbish. I can't believe it, it's like I'm writing a defensive tabloid.

Harry and Ros do bounce off each other really well - I think that's why we can see the chemistry between them on screen. They both are very funny, I agree JHyde, so they both probably just have a laugh on set and so that probably increases their chemistry on screen.

[JHyde]

Yeah, I suspect it's also why Ros and Harry have ended up having the relationship they do. That very wry mucking around. My favourite example is when they react to the Home Secretary asking "Which part of Harry did they use when they cloned you?"

[almh]

Oh, definitely. Ros is definitely the sort of person who could replace Harry - although, slight concern for her lack attention to other members of her team, which Harry normally has

Spoiler: show

excluding, of course, when he's being depressed about Ruth

[JHyde]

Then again, one of the reasons I warmed to Ros was

her concern for Zaf after he was kidnapped. She'd always had that great buddyish relationship with him.

It's a poppy for remembrance day - it's Remembrance Sunday today, and Remembrance Day on Wednesday (don't ask why we have two days - don't quite understand it myself!) It's to remember the sacrifice of the armed forces who have died in wars (specifically after world war 1.)

Dear mods, I apologise for the minor threadnap, but if I may add........

Remembrance Day is the present day name for "Armistice Day." The armistice ending World War I was signed on the 11th day of the 11th month at 11.00 hrs.....

The poppy is the emblem of the Royal British Legion and commemorates the poppy fields of Flanders where millions of young men were slaughtered in WWI. It is sold to raise funds to care for all injured ex-servicemen and the widows and orphans of the fallen.

Remembrance Day memorial services are held on the nearest Sunday to 11th November........hence why there are 2 days.....

They're sort of like some of the famous duos of old, you know like Laurel & Hardy.

Erm, not that I'm implying that Harry is fat or anything...
