I love all the forms/versions of the Smiley stories books , TV , films , the Simon Russell Beale radio adaptations are v good . So I could easily stand a comic version. The only person to draw them,Enki Bilal! Only Bilal can capture a mournful Opel Kadett on a cobbled square. #smileyspeople

Watching more #SmileysPeople highlights:
The German punks/ alternative types who hassle George .
George wearing the most perfect duffle coat.
The fact that they move cities but we don't get title cards announcing every bloody place. It's got trams it's not Guildford.
Michael Lonsdale turning up

Alec Guinness peering through the present into the past , through a glass darkly
There's several shots of George seen through frosted glass doors , loved this one. #SmileysPeople

The second episode of #SmileysPeople the first half hour is virtually silent, George/Guinness masterful searching for traces of Vladimir. It's like Mr Bean but with dead letter drops

Watched episodes 2 and 3 last night. The plot thickens! And a tiny cameo appearance by Alan Rickman - he looked so young that I wanted to pack him a school lunchbox. #smileyspeople

Enjoyed the film, it saved up its Stephen Kingness til the very last moment, and was all the greater for that. Now the last episode of #SmileysPeople, music will return next week, probably.

Hope you all have as sedate and unsexy a weekend as George Smiley.
'NYAAAAAAAAAR'

And it's also got a lot Hammer and Amicus stars in it too! Ingrid Pitt, Michael Gough and Kurt Jurgens for one. A nice small appearance for Alan Rickman and the endlessly fascinating Vladek Shyball. #SmileysPeople

Very happy to have #Patience back on the telly, come for the Neurodivergent representation stay for all the Dracula gags. Also, #TheLowdown on the Disneys continues to delight, and #SmileysPeople has George out and about in Germany tonight. Classic. #RichardWatchesTheTelly

Watching #SmileysPeople again. It’s just masterful. Episode two, the wordless search of the General’s flat, the encounter with the monk, the gentle, quiet competence of Smiley. Brilliant. Also enjoyed #TheLowdown on the Disneys. And trying to follow the cricket. #RichardWatchesTheTelly

Espionage telly was obviously: #TheNightManager, #TinkerTailor, and now it appears #SmileysPeople is also on th’Iplayer. This is an unexpected and very welcome development. Will need headphones now, for the ashes. Realise how middle class and middle aged this makes us (actually middle class and old)

Old light blue paint peeling off of a rotting wooden wall with Smiley's People appearing on screen
LACON: Yes, well, we have to temper truth, George! Sometimes people are innocent but the circumstances make them appear quite otherwise. There was never a golden age. There's only a golden mean. We have to remember that. Chalk it on our shaving mirrors.
SMILEY (silently): In yellow.

Bernard Hepton. Okay, I don't care - I'm that old.
Watching Elizabeth R thinking: Who's that GUY?!
Oh, yes; and wow: Toby Esterhase!
Brilliant.
