        Did they still get to see the cathedral? They should have done that first, and saved the poisoning for after. Poor planning on their part.

        To the untrained eye, these two cathedral-monkeys look like they know they are going to be involved in a terrible traffic accident, and there's nothing they can do about it.

        I mean, there are people who know the difference between ordinal numbers and cardinal numbers, but who needs to apply a skill one normally learns before all your adult teeth come in

        Personally I'm totally fine with rogue spies being dealt with.. you don't think that US or Britain aren't doing the same? Also, these guys were allegedly transporting this deadly chemical weapon in a perfume bottle? And then just poured it? Wouldn't they become deathly sick also?

        They sprayed it and there was an extra long nozzle for the bottle. I imagine to stop it blowing in the wind so that it could be directed.

        Right.. think about it. And then Scripal and daughter went to dinner.. and some people at the restaurant got sick just being in their presence. But spraying a chemical weapon with a long nozzle didn't make the 2 men sick? They went shopping in London the next day.

        Apparently it was easier to poison a defector than to wait in line to see the cathedral.

        Their story sounds legit. As Russians, they couldn't deal with a little English snow, so had 2 leave in a hurry, & posted a "review" which was a cut and paste job from Wikipedia. The new KGB is a comical monkey outfit, i don't know if that should make us feel better or worse.
