In the hands of a good writer, they wouldn't even need to have RA there to be able to end that storyline properly, they could just focus on the team's reactions and what they are doing to bring justice to Lucas's sacrifice. And they could just use scenes from Series 7 and 8 to do some nice tribute or even show some cut footages.

I mean honestly, this is not a high expectation to have at all, considering I saw it done on NCIS a couple of months ago where a character that had been dead for the last 8 years got a good tribute/remembrance episode with just old/cut footages and reactions from her teammates. And that episode was done with lots of care and respect, you can tell the writers put effort and hard work into it to do the character justice.

The issue is not whether Spooks writers can or cannot do it, it's whether they even bother to put in an effort or care, because any story can be done right if the writer put their heart and soul into the storyline, but it's quite clear that these writers don't bother with that, they just want shock and awe.

Probably an alien invasion.....at least that would be interesting....or time travel....or Lucas turning into a werewolf....
