Series 9 Rumours & Speculation

[Tea Lady]

Yes, there are a million possibilities. What if Albany is actually nothing. What if it was something Harry set up years ago to seek out moles in the department. Mis-information was put about, re its contents, making foreign agencies hungry for it. It just so happens that this time Lucas has come looking for it on behalf of X. The problem now is to convince those people blackmailing Lucas, and Lucas, that it's nothing.

If Harry really wanted to keep its contents secret, why put a code in the painting saying it was at Malcolm's house? Why just have no file at Thames House or a fake file? This way, the mole is drawn out into the open and they can see who it is.
