It was interesting to see the team come up with a way that MI6 could have "removed" Princess Diana. I think that one of the heavier moments is when the team realize that it would be entirely feasible for HMG to have killed her.

It's another of my favorite episodes to be sure. It was good to see Zaf in the spotlight more for an episode.

They did succeed in fooling me for a while that the episode would end with Harry acknowledging that HMG did actually play a role in Diana's death. Tome that would have been a ludicrous direction to take, so I was pleasantly surprised when things took a whole other turn.

Also loved the scene where Harry told Ruth that she was a "born spook".

I forgot that part. It was an interesting episode for many reasons.

So it was an interesting episode not just because it was utterly believable that they really could have killed Diana, but because it featured Harry telling Ruth she was a "born spook" and Zaf was in it... yeah, I agree with that! Jo's reaction was also interesting to watch as Angela slowly breaks her down, oh, and Colin digging through the wall. Amazing.

So I can take it you like that one?

Oh yeah, Colin and Malcolm were hilarious in that episode. It's one of my all-time favourite Colin scenes.

I loved this episode and was pleased to see the writers etc. have the balls to go with such a delicate storyline.

Yes Colin was very funny and so was Malcolm with the guillotine!

Yes!!! (Or were you not talking to me lol)

One of my favourite ever episodes - weirdly, I enjoy the episodes most where all the spooks are stuck on the grid.

The Ruth/Harry scenes in this episode are fantastic and Angela is such a brilliant villain, thought she was weirdly funny at times. The actress plays 'psycho' quite well.

When they're stuck on the Grid it does make it more dramatic because they're losing their safe place, which they normally inhabit during other episodes. Angela is amazing, can't wait to see her in Doctor Who!

And Ruth/Harry scenes are
