I spend too much time looking at those tats. FATBOY I haven't spent much time studing the tats but I seem to remember from a previous series that Lucas is a fan of Blake, and a ship is a ship, even if not the exact one as in the painting .... |

RE: Series 9 Episode 4 discussion
I finally saw it and think it was one of the most, or the most, entertaining of all the episodes of all the seasons. The writers are doing a good job of confusing everyone about Lucas, Vaughn and Maya. I don't know what's going on but it is intriguing and hopefully will have a good payoff.
I read all the comments but don't remember anyone discussing the scene of the Chinese terrorists packing for home and saying that the mission was not a failure, they got what they wanted and we saw a photo of Lucas on the phone. (It may have been discussed on the first few pages of the thread which I read before I saw the episode and wouldn't have known what they were talking about.) At some point I got the off the wall suggestion that Lucas was some sort of sleeper agent being woken up for his assignment. Why does Vaughn have power over him? Why would the Chinese hatch such an elaborate scheme just to check up on Lucas? And while we're on the subject, which end is up? Rooftop scene: Beth and Dmitri sneak up and disarm Lucas, cuff him and lead him away. Lucas screams, "No Harry please, I'd rather die!" Harry: "We're sending you to rehab ................. in Texas." |

I was just watching episode 2 again (it's my day off and I have the house to myself, she says defensively) and noticed that Lucas's username was L_North216 but in episode 4 it's Lucas North.
I should follow his advice and get out more! |

RE: Series 9 Episode 4 discussion
Interesting. Why 216? And is the difference a mistake or is it deliberate?
In other words: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! (I don't get out more, but obviously I should be rewatching more Spooks) |

RE: Series 9 Episode 4 discussion
Dear Nitrus
I know nothing about IT except what I need to know to research on the Internet. I spend most of my life researching foreign affairs, international relations, military stuff, cultures, languages etc. I'm 55. So I have considerable experience of the outside world, but not much of computers. I think that perhaps most people watching Spooks like computers, are intelligent but know little of the outside world. So maybe I should just leave this Forum to those people. I don't really belong here, so I think I'll take my leave of you. Good luck to you all khananel |

I wholeheartedly agree with everything you've said! And I desperately hope that the writers will come up with a plausible explanation for Lucas' strange behaviour! Otherwise it would just mean there are giving us an absolutely ridiculous storyline and actually think we would buy it. And it would also make Harry (and the whole of MI5) look pretty stupid: as head of the counter-terrorism department he should be a better judge of character than to recruit and promote someone whose anything but loyal, trustworthy and honest. |

For myself what I find interesting about espionage in general is that it brings together so many different interests and disciplines - foreign affairs, international relations, military stuff, cultures, languages, history, human psychology, science and technology including IT. Spooks for me is set against the background of current international relations, so it would be a pity not to have some more input on this. Please don't be put off by some of the nerdy IT posts Best Wishes FATBOY |

RE: Series 9 Episode 4 discussion
I wonder why the Chinese have a picture of Lucas? Is it related to Vaughn and whatever stuff he did before?
The Chinese better not hurt my Lucas or else I will not be very pleased with my birth country! I will attack with flamethrowers! I am not afraid to use it! RIP Carter Hall ~ Hawkman |
