Just as I was chuckling over your Shakespeare comment, you have to go picking on Hugh Grant. Stop that! Actually, it's a pretty good idea. I'd love to see Hugh do an episode. He has the time.

Also, pretending for a moment that the Lucas-Sarah relationship was portrayed well enough as love, Tom and Adam both made seriously bad relationship decisions. They both ran the risk of giving away secrets and almost got themselves killed. Christine 1.0 wasn't up to par showing her love of Tom either. As with Christine 2.0 we only had her words as evidence.

Even though we may not have trusted Anna, you could see her interest in Adam. Remember their meeting at the bookshop where she was pretending to look through books and smiled, actually started glowing when Adam arrived. That actress was convincing.

Quote:On the other hand, kudos to writers on relevance of next 2 eps. with India and Pakistan presently taking centre stage in internat'l politics.

I really do like the plots now that they have moved away from stopping suicide bombers. Some episode don't even have bombs at all.
