It's Mags! Who'd-a thought it, eh? ;)

My reaction on seeing this particular scene was "Hey, that's the same cardigan I've got!"

Best RA Kiss

Again, not really a surprise... it's Maggie Hale and John-boy Thornton with the chocolate voice! :)



...and again, followed by the voluptuous Dibley priestess!

One goes weak at the knees only by looking at that!
Come fill my little world right up, right up, right uuuup. *happy sigh*

Most Despised RA Leading Lady

Ta-da! Not as clear-cut beforehand than I thought. I mean, Marian is THIRD? That's a bit of a surprise, surely! I thought she'd be at least two, and that the battle would be between her and Sarah, but instead, it's Sarah and Alona. Go fig! So, in keeping with tradition, here's a picture... the extended version, you might say:

Sarah Cauldron Cauliflower Caulfield, bound and gagged
...not by Lucas, but hey, can't have it all.
He totally would've done it eventually.
Surely.

Here's one of many grating moments:

And for number two, we're Alonagain, naturally...
with another grating moment, woo!

Pinned to the wall of shame:

Sarah Caulfield, Spooks 76 (64%)
Alona Cunningham, Between the Sheets 12 (10%)
Marian, Robin Hood 11 (9%)
Isabella of Gisborne, Robin Hood 7 (5%)
Ellie Morgan, Moving On 5 (4%)
Carol Bolton, Sparkhouse 2 (1%)
Fannie Thornton, North and South 2 (1%)
Kath, Frozen 2 (1%)
Ivy Ridgeway, Malice Aforethought 0 (0%)
Madeleine Cranmere, Malice Aforethought 0 (0%)
