Spooks 1.06: it’s still a good show, despite the all-too-easy spectacular season surprise ending, but there’s still something that bothers me. If secret services wanted to prevent the IRA from planting a bomb in the subway, or Al Qaeda from blowing up a nuclear waste warehouse with a pocket missile launcher, would it really be best to ostensibly evacuate the area before anything happens? I do understand that, once the terrorists have set plan in motion they won’t want to stop, but wouldn’t the coincidental evacuation of the target zone be first on the shortlist of reasons to halt and reschedule the operation?
