We know that

Series 9.6 Spoiler: show

Vaughan is blackmailing him

, okay, good storyline, but threatening something against the MI5 TEAM is more feasible than threatening his lover, given Lucas's past evidence of loyalty to his country.

Unless Lucas sacrifices himself for the team at some point (guessing in S8), then this is a poor way to end a character, and whether he lives or dies, because of his betrayal ("Albany" file etc. but looks like getting worse) his character arc must come to some sort of close. I'm hoping this could be incarceration rather than death - that would be a Spooks twist (!) plus allow the character's return.

Actually I quite like this idea! Of course only if Lucas is in fact innocent (something I'm absolutely convinced of), which will then be discovered at some point in series 10. So that would mean he could return - and it would give RA time for both Strike Back 2 and Spooks 10. And it would be so much better than having to watch Lucas getting killed!

Oh I like the innocent part of the idea! I actually think a storyline like that would work perfectly!

I mean, that could that actually be a great storyline to see Lucas in jail, but this time being jailed on his own side knowing that there is no escape. Just imagine what that could do to Lucas's psyche. Then we'd get to mid series 10 when they find out that Lucas is innocent and get him out of prison but they find that Lucas's mental stability has been greatly damaged by his incarceration in his own homeland. Maybe then we'd actually get to see Harry and Lucas showing that great close bond as Harry feels responsible for what happened and tries desperately to bring the broken pieces of Lucas's rapidly fading sanity back together again.

Now that would be a great storyline for both Harry and Lucas.

I swear this series 9 has given way too many ideas for Harry/Lucas videos, I just got it stuck in my head that when Harry and Lucas have their confrontation that Lucas is gonna break down over what's happen and that Harry is gonna pick up the pieces and put Lucas back together again and fix this for everyone! I've been listening to "Pieces" by Red, and I always thought it was perfect for Lucas and Harry, especially from Lucas's point of view! And it seems to be so prophetic for series 9 too! I've written in bold some parts of the lyrics that I thought fits with series 9 or fits what I envisioned for series 9.

A broken mess, just scattered pieces of who I am
I tried so hard
Thought I could do this on my own
I've lost so much along the way

You call my name
I come to you in pieces
So you can make me whole

I've come undone
But you make sense of who I am
Like puzzle pieces in your hand
