Episode 3 Discussion

[HellsBells]

Best bit of episode 3 was the trailer for episode 4 ! (can't wait for that episode)
The episode was tense but I would have liked to see more of our Spooks and less of the terrorists. Jo's ending......very sad.

I've just watched it, It was a strange episode, 1 and 2 were very good but this one was a bit dissapointing fo me too.

I agree with most of you: too many story lines, the Grid looks very empty, ...
Why didn't Harry go to confort Ruth? *EDIT*

OK, I understand it know, as a metaphor...
Why didn't Ros try to shoot the man in the head instead of the chest?
Now, that I was starting to like Jo's character...

Still don't like it. What was the point of the lighthearted repartee at the beginning, if the end basically says "nothing's changed"? Seems to me a glaring contradiction. And they're not separated by a wall, they're separated by glass -- he can see her, for christ's sake!!!!!

I wasn't keen on the fact that there was too much air time devoted to the terrorists IMHO and not enough on the Spooks/Grid

What's going to happen now as there's only 2 Field Officers left and it looks like Lucas is going to throw a wobbly in next weeks episode. Poor Ros is going to be on her own!

Sorry, I'd better go read the rules.

And, since I may not reach 10 posts for awhile so I can PM, thanks for the welcome and thanks for the forum.

Hard to believe anyone could consider this the best Spooks episode ever, especially when the plot is a horrible retread that we've already seen a couple of times. Big summit meeting where Ros is on the inside and what do you know some terrorist group starts taking hostages, and Ros might die. Except she never does, and all the much more interesting characters do.

This season has been a snoozefest so far. Next episode looks promising, but...

[Nitrus]

It struck me as odd that Ros's only option was to shoot Jo, couldn't she have shot his hand/arm/cock?

I also find it hard to believe that the bullet went through the terrorist, it is a small caliber weapon, and she fired direct at the ribcage.

[lwhite53]

Had to be a kill shot or Finn would have pushed the button and blown them all to kingdom come. And given how close Ros was to him, the bullet was going to go through his body. Remember the scene with Adam and Richard what's his name:

Spoiler: show

Back to back, Richard -- if they shoot you, they'll kill me too.

spoiler tags are redundant, what possible reason could someone have to enter this thread other than to discuss the episode?

If you're in this thread, you will ONLY find spoilers about the episode.
