RE: Episode 4 Discussion
The problem with Tariq though is we still know barely anything about him - I learnt a lot more by going on the BBC Spooks website's character page. So it's really hard to even guess if he's got any hidden secrets because his entire past is secret.
If he was a mole, surely he wouldn't have made it that obvious though? I think he's just being incredibly clever - his role is the team's techie after all, so he should know that sort of information. DANNY - Placements all over the shop. Back up vehicles, chopper support if we need it. Bomb disposal with a signal jammer for Mary’s trademark remote control blasts. And Tom here’s doing the catering. Mate. You are so covered. |

It's just unusual to know so little about one of the featured players, which is why I think we're in for a "big reveal* at some point. "What is the truth?" "Betrayal is a cancer.

RE: Episode 4 Discussion
I've just finished watching ep 4, it was absolutely great!!! I think not many things to point out that you haven't mention yet.
I was shocked with Christine 2.0 killing her boss! I didn't see that coming either! I sort of knew she wasn't reliable but... not in this way! Open your eyes Lucas!! Very interesting Lucas' attempted suicide, it was good to know more things about him, I was worried for Lucas all the time, in the end he handled it well, but I wasn't confident, too much emotions and memories from his past. As always H&R brilliant, thoug I felt Ruth a little cold, I reckon is because of Jo's death. Harry made himself very clear about his feelings, that's good, he's getting closer "There'll always be something else, Ruth" About Tariq, I think they don't what to make a fuss about him, just another worker, I don't think he's a mole or sth, surely we'll learn more as series 8 goes on "Our doubts are traitors, and make us lose the good we oft might win, by fearing to attempt" Pactum serva |

RE: Episode 4 Discussion
I'm glad Ruth was right about asset Nick Manning and the Rencon clue - Harry was very dismissive of her when she first showed him the card with Dr E N Constable and the number on it. I liked the scene with Lucas and Sarah after Oleg leaves them in the flat but having rewatched it her accent goes all over the world!!!

I know it's just a waste of bandwidth to mention that Christine 2 is not strong enough to pick up a man and toss him over a railing like that. If his center of gravity was higher than the rail, or maybe down some stairs, fine. They kept us guessing with the Christine 1 character also, as to whether she was in love with or playing Tom. Rooftop scene: Beth and Dmitri sneak up and disarm Lucas, cuff him and lead him away. Lucas screams, "No Harry please, I'd rather die!" Harry: "We're sending you to rehab ................. in Texas." |

RE: Episode 4 Discussion
Well, do we know if Sarah loves Lucas??? I doubt it, but still...
I have to admit that the first time I watched the episode I did immediately pick up that there was a clue on the card But that was because of how they showed it - they put it into the script, therefore it had to have some use. Awww, Harry! You're right Beatriz - Ruth has got slightly more reclusive after Jo's death, but Harry! Admitting he needed someone to talk to about Jo, and that quote! DANNY - Placements all over the shop. Back up vehicles, chopper support if we need it. Bomb disposal with a signal jammer for Mary’s trademark remote control blasts. And Tom here’s doing the catering. Mate. You are so covered. |

I think Christine 1.0 was in love with Tom in the end, but I agree with almh, don't think Christine 2.0 is in love with Lucas "Our doubts are traitors, and make us lose the good we oft might win, by fearing to attempt" Pactum serva |

RE: Episode 4 Discussion
I've done a bit of self-defence and it is possible, as long as you get the right position.
BTW, don't know if anyone has mentioned this already, don't think they have, but I love the new intro! Ruth!!! But sadly no more Jo DANNY - Placements all over the shop.

RE: Episode 4 Discussion
I liked how at the beginning of the episode Harry knew whose name the Russian was yelling at the camera, but still waited for Lucas to own up to the fact that it was his name and that he knew who the man was. To me it showed that there is still a lot of unresolved trust issues for Harry with Lucas. And Lucas can probably sense that, hence his lying awake thinking about Harry when he's in bed with Nancy Drew. It also explains why Harry lied without blinking an eye when Lucas asked him about the meeting in Basel. It seems Harry really trusts noone except Ruth...
