The Examiner: You've put us in an awkward position... So what do you say, pal? Will you join us? |
 |
Tim has a rather crappy life. He has an ex-wife who hates him, a dead-end job and has a son who doesn't respect him. He applies for a job as a civil servant doing data entry, but discovers during the job interview that he has been offered a job as a trainee spy for MI5.
A Spy Comedy/Parody series that's part Chuck, part Get Smart, and very, very British. Stars Darren Boyd as Tim and Robert Lindsay (of My Family) as The Examiner.

Tropes used in Spy include:
- Abhorrent Admirer: Paula to Tim
- Butt Monkey: Tim's life is, for all purposes, crap. His son hates him, his ex wife hates him, almost everyone he comes across torture him, he's stalked by a mentally deranged counseler who wants to blackmail him into loving her, and the only people who like him is his borderline insane boss, his crazy best friend, his slightly strange love interest, and his ex wife's new husband.
- Reasonable Authority Figure: The Examiner. Mainly when it comes to Tim, not so much with his assistant.
- Except for when he has him framed for being a drug addict, landing him in a self help course where he's sexually harassed by Paula once more and harassed by the liar-hating cop who doesn't believe him. It was a real ass-move for the Examiner.
- Trigger Happy: The Examiner again.
