I enjoyed your review Donna. You used the word incredible and I can only support that for, when I worked in Downing Street I went on an MI5 training course for three days. It was so intense that every evening, as it was in Great Smith Street not far away, I walked back a different way each time for some of the things that were carried out made you think that there were people like that around all the time! It was winter time and dark and I kept looking to check nobody was following me!!! I thought of all this when some time later that chap was pricked with an umbrella on Westminster Bridge as he was considered a spy - pathetic perhaps but I was a lot younger then and some of the things that were described were almost unbelievable!
