[Spoilers] Sir Harry Pearce

[Silktie]

Now that our rewatch is officially underway, what did you all think about Harry's introduction?

My thoughts:
- Harry was a slightly peripheral character in episode 1.1, who left most of the decision making to Tom. He seemed to be there mainly to deliver some pithy one-liners and lighten the mood a bit.
- They did, however, establish him as someone who was willing to go against political orders to ensure a successful outcome for the operation, as seen by his underhanded attempts to hinder the handing over of Kane to the Americans.
- Peter Firth did a great job with the character right from the start, I felt from 1.1 that there was much more to Harry than what we were being shown, and that's due to the layered performance given by PF.
