Series 9 Rumours & Speculation

[The Grid]

Some interesting speculation going on here...

I've loved how Lucas has been a bit of an enigma since he's arrived on the Grid, but I will be disappointed if he turns out to be a traitor, as we've had this storyline with Connie in Series 7 and they would just be recycling it and it would be too obvious. They've built up this mystery side to his character, so for him to be revealed as a traitor would be a let down and the build up would feel like a waste of time. I'd like him to still be mysterious and ominous in Series 9, with different sides of his personality slowing being unravelled through each story that is told as I believe he is more complex and has more mileage as a character, opposed to Tom and Adam. A Harry/Lucas showdown does sound tempting though!

If there is a traitor, it definetly wouldn't be Harry or Ruth. I know Spooks likes to surprise us, but that would be way too far fetched. We've known their characters from the beginning near enough and they aren't capable of such a big betrayal. However, I guess it would be effective as the viewers would feel as betrayed as the characters... we've known their characters for so long and they've made us believe in them, that they are good, trustworthy and honest.. to have that belief taken away from us, for Ruth to be revealed as a traitor for example would result in us feeling upset, betrayed and cheated that we were fooled.
