[Spoilers] Sir Harry Pearce

[Tea Lady]

I think at this point in the series I would assume that Harry was married as he mentioned his wedding in 1.1. I dont think I realised he was single until the Catherine episode in series 2 when he mentions his divorce. But I think you are right, I couldnt really imagine what sort of woman he would be attracted to at this time and probably vice versa. For some reason though both Ruth and Juliet seemed to make sense as flames for Harry. They seemed to fit him and were plausible even though Ruth was clearly a lot younger than Harry.
