Not caring about logic, consistency in character development, credibility and other minor issues. But so what, they've given us that fantastic, new, shocking development! It will make it impossible to enjoy watching series 7 and 8, but who cares! We all should be grateful! What's credibility compared to viewing figures! And the stupid audience will have forgotten about plausibility by the beginning of next season anyway. So hurray to the writers!

I'm seriously considering tossing my series 7 dvds in the trash because I can't see any point in watching them anymore. I can think of main characters on other shows I've watched who turn into people I don't recognize or like, but none of them have changed as quickly or abruptly as Lucas. And none of the reasons for the changes were the result of preposterous backstories.

I'm gonna give the writers a chance to explain it all to me with the final episode of this series, or maybe even the early episodes of Series 10 if there is a cliffhanger to be resolved. But if at the end of this Lucas storyline and nothing still makes sense. Then I will have to say I'm gonna just give up on Spooks.

It's hard to swallow watching a show when what I saw for the last 2 series has just been a lie.
