[spoilers] Sir Harry Pearce 2.0

[Silktie]

My love for Harry grew even more when in 4.1 and 4.2 he went straight to the HS to tender his resignation after Juliet tried to blackmail him. I think it says so much about the man. I mean, it's not as if she wanted state secrets from him, she was just trying to play her power games, but Harry would have none of it. I also admire him for the fact that he was willing to tell the HS what she was blackmailing him with. He could've kept that rather unsavoury incident to himself, but chose to make a clean breast of things.

This informs my thinking on some of the season 9 speculation:

Spoiler: show

This makes the speculation that Harry could be the one revealed as a traitor very hard to believe for me. How are they going to convince us that a man who was willing to resign over this minor bit of blackmail is actually a traitor? It would be wildly out of character.
