The Brickish Empire - Series, Episode 1 - British VAs needed!
James Hare for Intelligence officer
The intelligence officer is the right-hand man of the General. He has his fingers in many pies and has an air of knowing everything about everyone - which is his job.
He is from an upper class background. Regional British Accents are encouraged (Not just England) but for this role should still be delivered with an air of superiority.
Expect 4-5 lines for the first episode. Probable repeat character for future episodes.

*Tone: Calm, authority* "You'll need to hold that village until re-enforcements arrive Captain, but I'm sure you're more than fit for the job! Off you trott."
*Calm but congratulatory* "Ah, excellent work Sergeant! A shame about the Captain, but you held on until we got here. I'm going to recommend a field-commission for you to be made leftenant... I think we can expect big things from you!"
* Spelling would be Lieutenant, but pronunciation for this is lef-ten-ant.
