[spoilers] Harry and Ruth Strike Back

[Tea Lady]

Ok, what was that phone scene really about? Was it just nothing? Was it thrown in to only help the Beth storyline along? Or was it to give us shippers, some glimmer of hope for the future? I'm not sure.

Ruth clearly did not need to tell Harry this information there and then. There was nothing either of them could do about it until the morning anyway. Ruth was on her own when she phoned Harry and had been drinking wine at home, late into the evening. Clearly that is not the act of a happy lady.

I honestly think she just wanted to hear his voice and was feeling low. I felt though, as usual she covered her tracks with work, but then let her guard down a little at the end, because there was a beat. Harry did seem a little choked at the end of the call.

I am afraid that Ruth has got to leave Harry alone now.
