[spoilers] Harry and Ruth Strike Back

[Silktie]

Aww, so poor Harry is doomed to a lonely, miserable existence forever then...

I have a slightly different perspective on how things would go if they decide to get Harry and Ruth together. I don't think Harry is suddenly going to undergo a personality transplant and be all happy - he'll still be the same Harry he's always been at work: loathing bad guys, politicians, injustice, and fools and incompetence in general. The only thing that will change will be his one-on-one interaction with Ruth. And Spooks will never be a show where half of each episode is going to be devoted to showing Harry & Ruth in domestic bliss or skipping hand-in-hand across grassy meadows. So we'll get maybe one or two scenes per episode showing Harry trying to be a normal human being with Ruth, and perhaps even crack a smile once in a while.
