Can someone also tell me how they managed to make it seem as if they were all at their desks as normal? They would have had to have sorted that before they blasted their way out of the grid but they were being watched so how could they have possibly looped the cctv or anything? also how did the bomb blast not alert the chinese/russians that something was up?

Absolutely great episode but they didnt really illustrate how the final outcome was reached!

The spies found out that they knew the grid was compromised when Tariq dropped something and looked directly at one of the cameras. Then they didn't have to pretend anymore and Harry said to rip out the cameras, he wanted privacy.

Someone got the idea (Beth) to try to lure them out by pretending another operation was underway that could possibly interfere with what the Russian and Chinese spies were doing, hoping, but not knowing for sure, that they might be in London. Remember they went to that apartment and put stuff around to make it seem that someone was there. Hired bullies then showed up and eventually led Beth and Dimitri to a car where Dimitri got photographs.

By the time the cameras were disconnected, the spies started downloading everything so it didn't matter that they couldn't see what was going on in the grid anymore. The team was able to rig stuff during that time, which was only an hour, the time to download everything.
