Hindus vs Muslims in London
Tweekums18 December 2009
Warning: Spoilers
It appears that "Nightingale" is finally putting its plans into action by sewing discord between Hindus and Muslims. A Pakistani agent is killed in London and it is not known whether or not his informer amongst a group of potential Hindu terrorists has been blown or not. When they learn about what is going on the team from MI-5 take over from the Pakistanis and encourage their informer to continue to meet the group to find their target even though they don't know if he is safe. Just as they are about to move in and make an arrest they learn that there is a second target so pull back leaving the young informer in a dangerous position.

With the old Home Secretary gone and a young high flier now in the job Harry doesn't know if he can be trusted, especially after he refuses to send armed police to a Muslim girl's school that has been taken over by the armed Hindu gang claiming to be worried in case any of the girls might be hit by police bullets in the crossfire and thus lead more radicalism amongst the Muslim population.

As one would expect the main cast put on a good performance as did Tariq Masood as the Muslim boy who has found himself caught up in the situation. The story was tense and had sufficient plausibility to be believable.
