with the quality and intensity of the previous episodes, and the climax building with Molly's back story, this was a poor episode.
Two reasons stand out.
First; when The Agency showed an episode set in London, some years ago, it was outdated with it's portrayal of 21st Century London. Unfortunately The Unit has not actually been to London and it shows.
As stated before, Red phone boxes, Red buses are no more. I understand this was shot on a back lot in LA, but could someone please update it. Get BT to export you some new phone boxes for starters.
Second issue, character development, or lack of in the London characters. This is not the high standard that made this show a hit, and despite the writing issues at the time, it will not do for a show of this quality.
I hope that the next season gets back to the standards of Series 2 and early Series 3.
