I loved Lucas North and I loved his tats…..One of eight onion domes bearing the three barred cross of the Russian Orthodox Church, one for each year of his incarceration. The words “Gnothi Seauton”, translated as “Know Thyself”, across his stomach, and “Dum Spiro Spero” meaning “While I breathe, I hope” across his shoulders. His chest tattoo is based on William Blake’s watercolour etching Ancient of Days.
Spooks at its very BEST
