Another corker - both Milner and Sam are in peril, whilst Foyle finds his hands tied in two cases to such an extent that he (series finale) resigns.
Moreover his goddaughter has returned after 10 years and her son has become mute following his school being bombed. (Though you also hear from (another) kid "We found a bit of shrapnel once. I hope the war never ends!") The Sandhurst Road school bombing was a real event - thought it might have been. And did notice officer's name 'Boothroyd' as a probable Bond reference.
Q is amazed that a woman wouldn't be allowed on such hush-hush military work and has to be disguised as a secretary - loved it's the Dam Busters project.
I keep watching this and thinking that I really should have noticed these moments of plot point significance, e.g. it's the wife's desk, not the husband's.
And all in tandem two youths (Gerard Kearns from Shameless and Harry Eden) are operating espionage acts for dodgy Spanish diplomat Stanley Townsend. With Kate Fleetwood, Joshua Lewis, Richard Clothier, Dermot Crowley, Abigail Cruttenden, Kevin Doyle, Michael Jaystone.
Dedicated to Jeremy Silberston, who had directed many of these, died too young at 55, was a friend of Horowitz.
