All of Pine's because I get to hear Hiddleston's voice and watch his lips move.
Uhh...what were we talking about again? Oh yeah, Corky has great lines.
I liked "...hang you up by your ankles until the truth falls out of you by gravity."
Nothing like a bitchy queen with a British accent.
Isn't there one about "uncorking" that Roper says, but can't remember the exact line. It has to do with laying away funds in Switzerland or some other financial haven.
shareI think that is what Roper said Corky calls it when he spends money on a guy he is trying to seduce and then writes it off on his expense account.
shareyou drink my wine, you steal my woman. proud of you, danny.

Yes, I think you are right. In several John le Carre's novels gay characters are featured. For example in "A Perfect Spy."
share"Did I say something untoward?" - Corky
shareWhen Pine is being interrogated in the last episode by Roper and growls "No". Not really the line but I guess the delivery. Wow.
shareI really liked the entire movie and just about every line.
But the this line toward the end of the last episode, said by the buyer when just after all the trucks blew up, had me laughing out loud:
"I'm going to want my money back, Mr. Roper".
It's just the flat, matter-of-fact way he delivered it ... was perfect.
