RA FRIDAY - DOES HE EVER HAVE ANY HOLIDAYS?

Here we go again! The BBC Press has started hammering.  A new SPOOKS campaign has   started and , lucky us, lots of new pics & articles & interviews are going to come out! " And we are glad of it, honest!" I do not mean to be ironic like  John Mulligan in the prison scene of MOVING ON! I'm just blissfully happy! Lots of news RA ladies and girls!

1. SPOOKS 9 is going to start! In the 38th week of the year. It means in a couple of weeks! 

2. If you don't mind spoilers too much, here's the plot of episode 1!!!

3. A new interview with Richard talking about  Lucas North in this new series is on line (again beware of spoilers)

4. Richard provided a new voiceover for a new series on ITV1 called Surgery School

5. Another radio work! Richard  will be a reader for the BBC Radio 3 programme Symphony of a City, part of the Words and Music series, airing on Sunday September 12 at 10:45 pm. This a programme of "poetry, prose and music recording and evoking the movement of a city day." The Words and Music link has a link to listen to... BBC Radio 3 live (internationally) and it will be available on iPlayer after the broadcast.

Now, first thing, Lucas's look. Cold, icey, menacing, disquieting ... more wicked than the wickest look of Guy's! OMG , what expects us in this new series?

We  already know we'll see  Richard / Lucas chasing and being chased...

On a ship with cuffs...

Dirty and ruffled after an explosion ...

I am definitely ready ( though a bit nervous -anxious - with a pessimistic disposition) to start with a new exciting season of Spooks. It's always been one of my favourite series and I really hope I won't be disappointed  . Oh Nooooooooooooo!!!

  OK! OK!!!! 

I 'm so sorry  but,  in order to keep peace in my house, I must leave you with that little dev..., ehm,  with little Reddie, my Red-Self!  Again, enjoy all the  recent news and all the ones I'm sure will come out soon! 

Have a nice week.... (To Reddie: Wait  a moment! Stop it , please! You never behave. Can I say good-bye, at least?) end  all of you! Till next Friday, then!  

I don't know why I must always come second! She  has already told you everything and  that's not fair!!! What can I write about now? Calm down, Reddie! You'll give her her comeuppance sooner or later! Yeah!

I  was just wondering: have you seen the list 1/5 above?  Does he ever have any holidays? Any day off? Did he relax a bit this summer? Gosh, Richard! You are even worse than that crazy, boring Mrs Prof., that is Black- self! You work too much! Not that I complain, not .at. all! Workholic?  Yes, please and ...Thanks a lot!!!!

 I read the interview linked above from BBC Press Office. Richard says:" The tattoos also help me avoid the "gratuitous torso shot" as they take about two hours to put on, so "getting my kit off" has to be carefully planned!!!" This said,  I can avoid watching this upcoming new series of Spooks. Joking! But we deserve at least a few but very, very hot shirtless scenes! Maybe without tattoos. Since Lucas met Maya before his Russian period  .... Awwww! Let's go on hoping. Fingers crossed.

This fact makes me nervous, hysterical. Yes! I have itchy feet: Lucas running, Lucas  in cuffs, Lucas after an explosion , Lucas being chased (shot?) in the street and,  moreover , only few TORSO SHOTS?! Gratuitous?! What do you mean, Richard? We are all there exclusively to admire Lucas's shirtless hotness! I'll be edgy and anxious  and nail-biting all the time but I'll watch it, be sure! The more I read this interview, the more  I  feel something really, really bad is going to happen. I smell disappointment. Just look at Lucas's look in that promo pic: petrifying, icey stare. My darling Gizzie was a lamb if compared! I want MY Lucas back! Who's this man investigating about his own past? What is he searching for? He's the new section-D boss but ... will we have enough time and occasions to  enjoy the fact and celebrate? That's what I fear and foresee! I'd better shut-up! I'm talking too much and I feel I'm on the brink of ... bad language and ... giving out too many spoilers! Yeppeeeee!!!! Two weeks more or less and it'll be SPOOKS TIME, well, LUCAS TIME again!!!

BYE!

Your Reddie.
