Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy
Which featherhead - to invoke a choice term from the book - decided to include the ending of Smiley's People among the extras on the Tinker dvd?
For those who aren't aware, Smiley's People is the final part of John le Carre's epic Quest For Karla spy trilogy. Tinker is the first part.
To avoid falling into the same trap, if you purchase the Tinker dvd DO NOT watch the Smiley extra section.
Featherheads! Complete featherheads!
PS: Tinker does include one of my all-time favourite lines, delivered wonderfully deadpan by Alec Guinness:
"Control didn't die of a heart-attack; he died of old age - just a little early." |
