If there was one thing I had to gripe about it's the choice of the name "John", yes it's a wonderful name, but maybe they can come up with something a bit more original than "John"?

I mean, next thing we'll find out that Lucas's name is really John Smith...

I really liked his line of not wanting to feel like he's covered in blood all the time anymore. I think it's very telling. It'll be interesting to see if the writers continue with this storyline for Harry, or whether he's gotten it out of his system now. He still seemed very unsettled in that last scene with Ruth, so maybe it will continue.

Makes me wonder this whole thing with Lucas's past coming out, how will it effect Harry? I mean, he's lost a constant stream of his agents, especially now with Ros, if he should somehow loose Lucas, what would that do to Harry's psyche? I can't see a very happy bright future....

I certainly hope they won't kill Lucas for Harry's sake, there's only so much the poor man can take before he snaps. Lucas may just be the straw that broke the camel's back. I mean, despite the hesitancy to trust each other, I do believe that Lucas and Harry do mean a lot to each other than either dares to admit.

One thing that I do wanna mention is how much I love the Spooks opening credits! It's probably the only opening credit that I know that constantly updates and changes on time with each characters' departure. And I notice this series opening's colors seems to have changed a bit, it seems more green-ish, and the last scene seems to be the same from the series 8 opening. Nice that Spooks doesn't just add a character into the opening credits until they actually are part of the team/made appearance. Makes it that much more exciting!
