Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })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 MI-5.A Spy Comedy/Parody series that's part Chuck, part Get Smart. Stars Darren Boyd as Tim and Robert Lindsay (of My Family) as "The Examiner".Not to be confused with the 2019 miniseries about real-life Israeli spy Eli Cohen, The Spy | |

Ax-Crazy: Elaine, who initially seems like a smoking hottie, but eventually gets to the point where she demands that Tim marry her... or else. | |

Butt-Monkey | |
| Spy / int_47fea76b | comment |
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 counselor 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. About the only good thing is that he has a steady job (he was unemployed for some time at the start of the series). And even this is debatable since, as competent as he is, his boss is well... borderline insane with a man-crush on him as big as the MI-5 building.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); }) | |

Adults Are Useless | |
| Spy / int_a939d96a | comment |
Adults Are Useless: Marcus certainly thinks so, and he's more or less right. Tim's driving motivation is trying to prove this is isn't the case. | |
