[Spoilers] Sir Harry Pearce

[JHyde]

I just wanted to share two of my favourite Harry moments.

The first is in season 1 with Tessa with the "career, career Tessa!" monologue, followed by his assertion that "It's been a long day". He's so funny.

The other is in 7.7 and I think is so revealing.

Spoiler: show

He's being tortured and yet when the Home Secretary and Ros come in to see him he still stands up as a sign of respect. I don't know whose choice it was for him to do that, but it was brilliant.

Tea Lady, I'm really hoping that's how they end the show.

Spoiler: show

I think the attraction will ramp up again towards the end of this season, with Harry once again endangered at the end of it, and by the end of season 9 (if we get one!) Ruth and Harry are again captured and that's when they decide to be together, on the condition that they retire from the service. If they get out alive! And I think Harry's retirement is a good way to end the show, I'd like to see a crisis starting just as he leaves the Grid, because of course no matter who leaves or stays, the danger is always there.

I'm actually considering writing some fan fiction to that effect.
