I think it's rather unfair to blame RA for "destroying" Gisbourne or "turning" Lucas "inside out", these issues come from the writers, if anything, RA's performance is the saving grace to these problematic writings. Robin Hood was going downhill anyways with everyone dying in the finale, that's not RA's fault for how that series went down. And RA had no control on how Spooks writers was gonna write his character to be or how they were gonna change him, he did the best he could with what he had. To be honest, I wouldn't even care that much about the storylines from either shows if RA wasn't so good at portraying the emotions of the characters.

As for the episode itself, this is my reaction:

The acting:

The writing:

Right now, this is all I can think of, I'm still too angry......at least Lucas came through at the end and didn't let me down.....
