Anyone else get annoyed that they simply refer to Harry as head of MI5? I thought the DG was the TopDog with Harry being Head of Section D?

That mistake has been made a lot over the years, I've noticed. It doesn't help that Harry is actually Section Head as opposed to Section Chief (currently Lucas).

I may have this wrong but didn't "Racing Rupert" even say to Clarkson on Top Gear that Peter was head of MI5? Doesn't help does it.

This is funny and affectionately satircal:

This is so funny A Cousin. I trust the "two old gimmers" are Harry and Ruth.
"Iffy forrins" ha ha ha ...

Quite. I confess I had to look that one up.
Better than being "an exposition-spouting foetus with a genius for computers and stating the bleeding obvious" I suppose. Poor Tariq. He really does need more development, doesn't he?

Can't quite decide where the best place is for this post, but if any of you read Best magazine, or look at richardarmitage.net, DO NOT READ the interview with Laila Rouass linked there recently. There is a spoiler warning, but I read it anyway and wished I hadn't, because it's a big one... and I'm INCREDIBLY IRRITATED NOW!!! Hope this spares some of you the same!!!!!

Vicky Frost has posted her Guardian blog for 9.4. Very funny as usual.

No figures for Spooks yet but Whitechapel drew 5.4m which is down on Banks last week so it should be interesting.
Preview of next week's episode in TV Times is intriguing
