It might be a friendly face such as Tom as we remembered him. I can't imagine Tom betraying Harry, but who knows with Spooks.

You would think it too obvious they would show these photos if Tom was to be the old face returning, however they have not been too subtle in the last couple of Series first with Lucas and then I don't think anyone was in the least surprised when Harry revealed Sasha was his son ( or at least he THINKS Sasha is his son).

The news that this was to be the last Series of Spooks leaked many months ago but I think we also chose to pretend the "rumours" were untrue, however if the returning old face was to be Tom or Zoe I'm positive it would have leaked by now.

I know I was always a sole voice but I have never been 100% convinced Connie died in the Underground blast so my hunch is that it may be she. After all we are dealing with the Russians and she could have gathered much info and perhaps gotten access to Harry's personal files while at MI5 Headquarters!

Also think one of Erin or Calum will be a double agent.

I like the idea of Connie. She is the one who knows the most about Harry's intelligence history, his Cold War past and his Russian dealings. She is such a great "baddie". In fact, she would be even more perfect that Oliver Mace.

Oliver Mace might be the impersonator, but he would have to rely on the Russians to get information about Harry's past during the Cold War. Or did Oliver Mace work for MI-6 when Harry was there?

I never thought that the Grid would be infiltrated by a double agent, but it is possible.
