Huh

This was one of my favourite plotholes Dodgy The "man whose account Lucas used to download the Albany file" - who did have a name in the episode, I know, but I can't remmember what it was - existed for three reasons only:

1. To get Lucas into the restricted file
2. To give Ruth yet another moment of being the last-moral-woman-left-alive-in-MI5
3. To underline the remorseless wickedness of Lucas

It never occurred to TMWALUTDTAF to mention, when detained and threatened with jail and the end of his career, something along the lines of "Oh, wait. There was that tall, dark-haired chap who borrowed my access pass at almost exactly the same time ss the events in question. Hmmm, let me see if I can recall what he looked like since, clearly, he works in the building."

Rolleyes


As for not-quite-Albany being "just an illustration of a ship": I think we are supposed to conclude that there was information in the digital coding, or possibly in an addition or alteration to the image, which indicated that Malcolm was the contact for the file itself.
