After a disastrous meeting with journalists in the 'Blue Fin Building' in Southwark:


Ben Whishaw and Michaela Coel filming London Spy in Southwark
19 October 2014



Journalist 2 (Michaela Coel):
You don't use his name.
Is it true you didn't even know it?
Did he ever tell you he was in danger?


Danny:
No.


Journalist 2:
OK, I get it. He's a spy, he needed to be careful.
You met by chance. First day, he lied.
But eight months later you want to spend the rest of your lives together and you're still using the wrong name to say how much you love him?


Danny:
He told me his name was Alex.


Journalist 2:
People lie, Danny. And they lie well.

SO--I received my copy of Tom Rob Smith's London Spy The Complete Scripts from Amazon UK:

AND--as promised, he included (sadly, very few!) of the pieces by some of the amazing fanartists--

It's sad that more pieces couldn't be included, and it's too bad that the pieces couldn't have been shown in larger formats.
In any case, thank you Tom Rob Smith for doing what you did--I remember when you said that you wanted to do something
for the fanartists, and Jo Lee just nearly broke down and cried. (She was one of my favorites.  )
