That's a good point. But you could see that Osbourne was suspicious of the new people suddenly showing up right from the start, as his suspicions had already been roused by the dropped fuse from the botched bugging expedition right at the beginning. And he did say at the end whilst holding Tome and Helen that he didn't buy her story about them being swingers. So Helen definitely contributed to their downfall.

I think Harry probably felt a bit responsible for Helen's death, as she was only on the operation because he allowed Tessa to take Zoe for her own operation.
