Series 9 Episode 8 discussion

[Tea Lady]

Still feel a bit numb after that and a little in shock.

Plenty of stuff to keep us on the edge of our seat. I too thought Lucas had killed Ruth with that injection. I found that scene very distressing.

I loved the way Harry knew what he had to do, the moment Ruth was taken. You never saw him question himself. I do wonder though, if Albany was "live" would he have done the same thing, even for Ruth? As it was, Harry knew that all he would lose is his job. Quite frankly though A LITTLE THANK YOU WOULD NOT HAVE GONE AMISS RUTHY!!!

As for the end. I liked it and I knew that Lucas couldn't go through with the bomb. It wasn't really him. The "him" that he really wanted to be, but couldn't be. I knew he wouldn't kill Harry.

As for the final scene...I wonder if that was tacked on. Not that it isn't likely that Harry won't escape punishment, but Harry was holding his phone in exactly the same way as the end of the scene of 9.1. Also, did he have a cut above his eye? I didn't see one. I just thought that they used the footage for 9.1 again, for the nightime rooftop scene.

Outstanding performances from RA, NW, and PF again. Maya wasn't too bad either this week.
