For all I know Harry could be a traitor next time, or Ruth, or Tariq may be an axe murderer or something. Why should I care about these storylines then? Nothing would be a surprise.

Exactly, if they wanted to make a series with a spy gone bad why not just bring in a new character.
Lucas was a good officer who suffered in a Russian prison but remained loyal. It took the Russians 8 years to break him and agree to work for Kachimov. Then Lucas double crossed the Russians because they hadn't destroyed his loyalty to his country or MI5. There is no way the John character would have suffered, the moment the FSB captured him he would have done a deal and worked for them.
