Dept. Q S01E09

Matthew Goode as Carl Morck

I know the (for now, relatively small) Dept. Q fandom is mostly talking about Carl Morck, but I for one am already a BIG fan of Akram Salim.

Like, he is a Syrian refugee with a mysterious backstory and insane combat and detective skills because of that. But he is also the sweetest soul, used to be a stay-at-home dad for his two daughters, as his wife is a doctor, and he brings sweets when applying for a job.

i'm sure, lord advocate, with your weight, you can get a deserving candidate fast-tracked to the D.I. rank. i presume you're talking about the syrian gentlemen whom you introduced as your bodyguard. he's a political refugee who's here on asylum and, as loathe as i am to admit it, he's a good copper, better than most.
