The flashback to the gold watch and the eventual love-making scene are confusing but they are needed to push the story forward.
Fans are baffled by the continuous shift in narrative timeline of 'The Little Drummer Girl' and are now taking to Twitter to voice their doubts about Charlie and Salim's past.
BBC One's adaptation of John Le Carre's 1953 novel by director Chan Park-wook, follows the quest of Mossad agents to track down a notorious terrorist, Khalil, by trapping his brother, Salim.
