Hee! I am so hero material on account of my have-sene-brilliant-obscure-british-fictions superpower. The friend that lent me State of Play is crazy about John Simm, and had been ranting about him in SoP, and when I finally saw that my reaction was "that's the guy from Sex Traffic!" That's when she looked at me blankly. The two parts are pretty similar, yeah.

Hee screencaps! I'd forgotten about the glasses.
