RE: Plot-holes
^Actually I have to disagree with you there. I thought Ruth's developement was spot on (I blame the series eight writers for how they dealt with post George Ruth rather than nine writers in that particular instance) but the Lucas storyline was pants.
I don't ask for "realism" in the living day to day existence of what we know as humans sense- I am intelligent enough to know that my drama is fiction, but the story has to work in the fictional world created. In the Spooksiverse, Jucas cannot work (show me a man or woman who can reconcile coherently Lucas series seven and eight with nine and I'll eat my words gladly) and in fact undermines believability already for series ten. If Jucas can happen with no rhyme or reason why can't Harry the cross dresser? Why can't Ruth the Chinese spy who has been using Harry secretly since series two unbeknowkst to the viewer? The answer is there is no reason it can't and that IS worrying. I read a blog post that summed it up best. Lucas is forever lost in a post eight black hole because John the cypher took over- a cypher who was never explained, could never be explained because in the world of Spooks as a character written in the way he was, he can never make sense. Perhaps for some viewers this is entirely fine and acting or shock value makes up for a lack of coherent storyline but I am not one of those people and many others arn't also. |
