Series 10 Rumours & Speculation

[harrbd]

In the missing 48 hrs – Harry goes back to the Grid, blanks everyone and phones HS from his office. Calls Alec into his office and tells him to organise reports from the team to be sent to the HS. As Harry and Alec continue talking focus switches to the team looking in. They look worried, Ruth distraught. Switch back as Harry is telling Alec that he will resign. Alec says that he did the right thing with Albany / Lucas / Ruth and should fight any disciplinary action. Harry says that he needs to protect his team, past and present and can’t have them involved in a lengthy enquiry, especially with the Royal Wedding coming up. Harry will also add that he is tired of the loss, death, politics etc and doesn’t want to carry on. Alec asks him what he will do and Harry says that in the short term he will spend some time with his children and then consider his options. Tells Alec to get himself sorted out. As Alec gets up to leave he turns and says “It isn’t you that Ruth has to forgive, it’s herself. Give her more time, Harry.”

Alec gives message to the team re the reports and adds that Harry has been instructed by the HS not to talk to any of the team until the reports have been done. Ruth and Harry look at each other through the glass of his office. Harry cold but sad, Ruth upset. Beth gets everyone organised and says that they must agree on what to say in order to help Harry. Alec tells them that Harry insists that they tell the truth and not compromise themselves - cover ups are okay to save lives but not to save someone’s career.

Ruth goes to Harry’s house but he isn’t there and he doesn’t pick up the phone when she calls.
Harry goes back to the grid the following night to collect some of his things. Goes to the roof and takes the HS call. Puts his resignation letter in the post.

Two months on.
New boss at Section D. Not liked by the team. Obviously !!
Harry contacts Alec asking for a meeting. Tells Alec that he has been asked by the highest authority to set up a “private investigating co” Alec asks him what sort of thing they will be doing and Harry says that they will employ a couple of people to do the usual sort of thing so no suspicion will be caused. However they have been asked to spy on the spies as there is a concern that someone at a very high level is planning something at the Royal Wedding. Tells Alec that Malcolm is on board and that Ros and Adam weren’t really blown up and will be coming back to join them. (Okay, forget the bit about Ros and Adam !) Alec is in but asks how they will get all the information they need. Harry tells him that they have a person on the inside. Guess who that will be ! This will, of course mean secret meetings etc!

Naturally disaster is averted with evil person found out and day saved. Harry recalled to service, brings Alec with him. Harry and Ruth together. Harry happy and back to his old self, complete with sarcastic and humorous comments.

Other episodes for writers to decide but all end happily ever after !
