Women have been MI.6. agent Andy Osnard's weakness. As punishment for being caught sleeping with the wrong woman on his last posting in Spain, Andy is relegated to the global backwater of Panama as his next field assignment. Although nothing is happening there on the surface, Panama is still seen as having global importance due to the canal, with something always possible to rock the boat as seen by the recent history of the corrupt regime of Manuel Noriega. The advice of his superior is to co-opt one of the only few hundred British nationals living there to act as an informant for pay. Andy chooses Harry Pendel, a men's-suits tailor with Savile Row credentials through his now deceased business partner Arthur Braithwaite. This choice is because of Harry's client list, he the tailor to the elite and powerful, including the Panamanian president, who might treat him like the proverbial "bartender" or "hairdresser" confidante, and because his American wife, Louisa, works in a senior managerial position within the canal authority. But what may have swayed Andy's choice the most is that he knows the truth about Harry: that he not only does not have Savile Row credentials, but is an ex-con, Arthur Braithwaite was his Uncle Benny, also a criminal, and that despite his tailor shop doing good business, he is deep in debt from a farming venture gone wrong, none of this known to Louisa. As such, Harry has no choice but to cooperate; the payment from Andy at least gets him out of his farm debt. As a side, Harry also has some connections to people who actively worked in the opposition against Noriega: Mickie Abraxas, who has turned to the bottle to cope, and Harry's store manager Marta, the right side of her face which shows the physical scars of that war, the scars at the hands of Noriega's men. With Andy placing more and more pressure on Harry to provide intel of some importance, Andy eventually learns through Harry that the Panamanian government is planning on selling the canal to the Chinese. This intel is exactly what Andy was looking for to set in motion a plan to reach his ultimate goal with this Panamanian posting.

The hilarious highlight of John Boorman's Hope and Glory (1987), nominated for five Oscars: nine-year-old Bill Rohan rejoices in the destruction of his school by an errant Luftwaffe bomb. This movie picks up the story nearly a decade later as Bill (Boorman's alter-ego) (Callum Turner) begins basic training in the early 1950s, during the Korean War. Bill is joined by a trouble-making Army mate Percy (Caleb Landry Jones). They never get near South Korea, but engage in a constant battle of wits with the Catch-22-worthy Sergeant Major Bradley (David Thewlis). Richard E. Grant is their superior, the very infinitely put-upon, aptly-named, Major Cross.

Christmas at Castle Hart
TV-GIMDb 6.42021 84 min

Always having wanted to be event planners themselves, New York sisters Brooke and Margot Bennett hit a professional low when they are fired from their server jobs for high end event planner Paige Monaghan during a Christmas party. With nothing now to do for the Christmas season, they decide, with their life savings, to travel to Ireland to search out their unknown Irish roots, of which they were only recently made aware as their now deceased father, adopted, discovered scant information about his biological family before his passing. In Ireland, they meet Aiden Hart, who they eventually learn is the Earl of Glaslough, a title he somewhat reluctantly inherited not feeling he worthy unlike his deceased father, the former Earl. Aiden does his globetrotting work as an architect largely to escape everything associated with being an earl, while his sister, Siobhan Hart, manages the Hart estate centered on Castle Hart. After five years away, he has just unexpectedly returned to Ireland for the holidays. They since converted the castle into a hotel and hold guided tours to pay the bills, their financial situation which has not even allowed them to repair the chapel which was structurally damaged in a storm. Also to pay the bills, they have decided this year to host the more lucrative lavish Christmas gala at the castle on behalf of the Duchess of Abercorn instead of their usual Christmas event, the more community oriented twelfth i.e. last day of Christmas festivity for the town. With their event planner quitting at the last minute, they, on a "vacation lie" told by Margot, beg for the sisters to step in to organize the event to be held in ten days time on the presumption that they are not only high end New York event planners, but that Brooke is *the* Paige Monaghan. While uncomfortable with the lie, Brooke agrees on Margot's urging both to help the Harts out of a bind, and knowing that they indeed could plan an event of this magnitude. While Margot will largely handle the logistics at the castle, Brooke will handle the creative end with Siobhan assigning Aiden to be her liaison for whatever she may need. In spending time together, Brooke, as Paige, and Aiden start to fall for each other. The question then becomes if a relationship between them is even a possibility whenever the truth will come to light that she is not Paige, the lie which would be all the more problematic for Brooke, not only personally but professionally if she ever really does want to be an event planner, if Aiden finds out from someone other than her.
