Politics Having watched many series of Spooks, Alias and whatnot, why am I the only one who seems to think that this was a 'drop' that went horribly wrong? For a start, the documents were being carried in what looked a very old folder of the kind which would be bashed and overused by students and the like, thereby obscuring the nature of the contents. Isn't possible then that member of the security services left it on the seat for some other member of the security services to collect, only for a member of the British public to intercept it before the pick up could take place?

I'm suddenly very nervous and wondering whether I should post that deduction. Hum. What the hell. Either way, judging by the linked post at the BBC's Editor's blog, it sounds as though the scene in which Frank and Fran discussed next wasn't a million miles from the Drop The Dead Donkey episode Sex, Lies and Audiotape in which the gang have to decide whether to run a controversial story, popularly remembered as being the one in which Dave accidentally recorded Sally have sex with a "viking" or "norse warror".
