[spoilers] Harry and Ruth Strike Back

RE: [spoilers] Harry and Ruth Strike Back
Heh, interesting discussion. I'm going to throw a spanner in the works and say the fact that Harry didn't tell Ruth about the location had nothing to do with trust, and everything to do with need-to-know. When you're a spy, and especially someone in Harry's position, no matter how much you might trust someone, there will always be things that you will have to keep secret, because that's your job. Harry may also have thought that it was better for Ruth's own safety that she didn't know.

This is pure speculation on my part, but how I imagined it happened was that Ruth helped Harry to spirit the uranium out of Iraq and stash it in Norfolk. Harry, being the good spy that he is, never told the CIA or even MI6 where it was, but he knew that the same elements that tried to plant the uranium in Irag would also like to have it back. So I imagine he moved it at regular intervals, and never told anyone. I agree with Tea Lady that Harry didn't need anyone else to know the location.
