Series 10 - Episode 5 Discussion

[loladom]

OMFG!!!! What an episode! It was almost like a movie.

This is the first ep this season that has truly had me on the edge of my seat like the old days. They concentrated completely on the main plot and didn't feel the need to half heartedly tag on a threat of the week which is where ep3 and 4 went a little off beat.

Sooooo much in it, I need at least another couple of rewatches. H&R more honest than they have ever been. At first I was annoyed they'd made Ruth into a snitch which really goes against her character, but it was a good device to show her jealousy and make H&R have that conversation in the car and the phone call after the embassy.

The ep 6 trailer hints well at the unfolding Greek tragedy

Series 10 Spoiler: show

Right from the beginning I suspected there would be a father/son day of reckoning in this storyline and that Harry would face a his son/his country dilemma. It's coming....

As a side note, if they made it like this episode, they could do the odd 2 hour special of Spooks, but not of course if they kill off the main man!
