[Spoilers] Sir Harry Pearce

[Tea Lady]

I agree that there seemed a clearer line betwen him and his field officers. Tom seemed almost totally in charge of operational matters. That line seems to get more fuzzy as the series progresses though.

His role in episodes 1 and 2 did seem to be one of peace maker, politician, servant of the state, and ruthless boss that would break the law to avenge the death of one of his loyal officers. Loyality is everything to Harry.

Harry also seemed to be enjoying the chaos some of the time. It may just be me but I felt that PF was playing Harry in quite a camp way to start with. If he had not mentioned his marriage to Tom then I would have perhaps thought Harry was gay.
