[spoilers] Hermione Norris/Ros

[Tea Lady]

I think the woman was supposed to be her mother which is why she ignored Harry and his team. As for the older man, who knows? Perhaps an uncle, a new partner to her mother.

I do wonder whether the new HS would have turned up or even the DG in real life, if an officer died saving the HS and preventing nuclear war. I know it's all kept secret, but still, a member of the government could have gone.

Ros did say in 8.4 I think, that she only wanted a quiet funeral. Just friends and family. Well her only family were there and all her friends. Her friends being Harry and the team.
