Quick question: Do doctors in the UK not wear white coats?Is it optional?
They are being got rid off, New motto bare below the elbow so that hands get cleaned properly.

If Lucas is playing Vaughan and Maya, then his storyline works. If not, then it's one of the worst character assassinations I've seen in a while.
I still believe Harry knows about Lucas's past, including Vaughan and Maya.
Apart from that, WONDERFUL scenes with Harry and the Home Sec. Every scene with Ruth is a joy. Thought Kai was terrific, and can't wait to find out more about the CSS and why it has the photo of Lucas. And finally, Dimitri has a half-decent action scene.

I think the writers are just trying to give me heart-attacks! Whatever's going on with Lucas, not everything is what it seems, the writers are really trying to confuse us, so I'm thinking there will be a twist down the line.
There has to be an endgame somewhere.....and hopefully that endgame is that Lucas is a good guy and he is still Harry's number one prodigy!

"John" has told Maya he is a 'private security consultant'. I'd like to know how has he explained the tattoos...

Maybe he did them in a moment of drunken stupidity...

Um ... a few negative comments about the last episode. I disagree with most of them. OK we can pick holes in it; say some of it is implausible; pick over the details - as I do. But only to try to work out what is happening or going to happen.
At the end of the day it's a contemporary, close to the bone, hard hitting drama. So expect some dramatic licence!
Here's a thought:
Albany - region of South Africa (with lots of bio diversity)
Lucus and Vaughn - go back to Africa
Meya - medical doctor
Chinese - lots of current interest in Africa
Is there some bio tech connection here?
But then is Albany a too obvious cover name?
I know more questions that answers - but there you go!
PS didn’t realise the HS is Simon Russell-Beale - loved the line to Harry “Well that’s spying for you”

Ok, first things first, I am going to say something stupid, please don't kill me... I really really hate Lucas at the moment -
:ducks under desk:
But honestly, what is going on? This is the third series in a row where it's all about him, time to move on please! If I hear about another one of his one true loves I will personally see to it that his character is destroyed forever... This is, of course, assuming that there's not going to be a massive twist in the end where we find out that Lucas is playing them, and he's only pretending to love Maya to get information or something. But as that's unlikely, I'll resume my rant.
BTW, coolest stunt ever DIMITRI AND LUCAS!!! I found that so funny, that they were just abseiling down a building, it makes me smile so much thinking about it.
I didn't like this episode as much as the others. Not entirely sure why yet, but it keeps making me really fidgety when I watch it. Not a good sign, I think.

I think Lucas is following his own agenda now, and I also think he is besotted with Maya. But I don't think Maya is all she says she is. Unless LR is not a very good actress which may well be the case, I don't get the feeling she is returning Lucas's feelings. Lucas is in a very bad place now, the stunt he played getting that file shows just how cold he is. I don't trust him an inch!

I have to agree with you, I can't stand Lucas ( sorry Lucas fans) it just seems like it is all about him & his various lady friends....enough already, if I see him in another 'love scene' I will scream......come on how about a little love for Harry & Ruth

Yeh because they've hardly had any screentime at all. *rolls eyes*
