Series 10 - Episode 6 Discussion

[Nitrus]

beatrice4ruth, you are very much a 'unicorn fancier' as TL would put it. It's all you've posted about for the past 5 days.

TL knows (I hope) that I don't see her as a HR nutter, so when she says that she's unhappy with the ending, I know that it will be for a more tangible reason such as she just wants Harry to happy rather than an incessant need for HR to succeed through all.

I am a huge fan of Harry's and yes I want him to suffer grief and anguish and pain. But most importantly I want him to come through it and keep doing what he has been doing. That's what makes the character, his resilience and ability to come through everything in order to protect the country. If Harry had left the service because of Ruth then it would have been a lie to his character, I invested in the character that was resilient and true to his country no matter what, if I had been dealt a character who wimped out after Ruth's death or a character that was only doing it because of a mystical happy ending, then I would have felt cheated.

I don't understand why people who wanted a happy ending feel cheated, Spooks has never given you any reason or basis with which to form that conclusion, other than what NW supposedly told people. I have no sympathy for people who ruined the ending for themselves by reading spoilers or asking actors.
