And Harold "Kim" Philby was famous for being the "Third Man"... employed by HM Secret Service and the KGB at one and the same time.

And he did get the Order of Lenin if I remember correctly.

I thought Blunt was the third man.... or was that the 39 steps?

 

[The Lone Gunman]

I though Orsen Cart was the third man or Harry Lime or somebody?

 

[DaveB]

Orsen Cart (sic) was a very fat man who stole nice people's penecillin and watered it down.

He also played the zither.

His Bird was a bit of allright though. I would!

 

[Troll]

a relative of yours?

 

[Fleetwood]

Nah.

He was the Fifth Man.

There was some other geezer who was allegedly the Fourth Man, whose name I've forgotten...

Stalin's Englishmen as they were familiarly known.

Burgess.

Maclean.

Philby.

?

Blunt.

Etc.

John Cairncross

Correction: Kim Philby was awarded the Order of the Red Banner, not the Order of Lenin.

HTH.

I wonder if the Banks / Police & other institutions vetting processes are as robust in view of the current fad for 'diversity'

What do you think? Considering half the morons around here work in banks then the obvious answer is...no, the current systems employed by banks arent particularly robust!

I seem to remember 6-8 months ago a massive Police campaign to recruit ethnic minorites - they didnt say which ones - but im sure if you mentioned you were a member of a small islamic fundamentalist group in a wheel chair and was gay youd probably be a superintendant by now. Or wearing an ornage jumpsuit - I cant remember which

Glad to hear on the news last night that MI5 have detected several attempts by Al Qaeda to infillrate sleepers into the organization.

This was given in a statement read by Mohammed "Kim" Philby, proud holder of the Order of Lenin.

It was obviously a slow Newsday.

Might as well have Shock revelation - Pope is Catholic, or Scientists puzzled by rise of sun in the morning!
