The Harry marriage proposal also jumped out at me to, but I agree with you that there had to be some movement in their story, it also allowed new viewers to understand (partly) their relationship.

I thought it was explained. John got in with a bad crowd, murdered his double, the real Lucas, to escape knowing he'd been interviewed and already accepted into MI5. It's a huge organisaton so it would just be a case of John avoiding those people who initially vetted Lucas. Not an amazingly strong story I'll give you but it was there nonetheless. How does anyone do anything in fictional stories? Don't answer that, I'm moving on and will see you all in September (or whenever) for the start of Series 10.
