Great episode!

I think it's building really nicely. My predictions..

Quinn to fake his death then wipe the lot out, Alison will talk her way round initially, then get caught in the final episode.

I think Quinn (Flynn smile ) needs to be killed off.

He's used up all his lives and we need a foxy female spy to replace him. I'm getting fed up of Carrie gurning her way throug every episode.

Nonsense. Quinn needs his own spin off series called Double Hard Basterd.

He's not very good though is he? So far he's allowed himself to be stabbed, shot and now locked up and gassed.

Not exactly Chuck Norris is he?

Lets not forget the episodes where he went all soft and shacked up with the fat chick in that crappy motel..



Please let him be finished off.

Christ. Compared to that a room full of Jihadis armed with Sarin doesn't seem so terrifying..

One more thing: how was Saul able to waltz straight into the CIA without Darth Maul bringing the house down on him? Thought he was in fear of his life.

Ah well, still very much enjoying this series.

I think the krauts invited Dar to their gaff for the interrogation

I don't understand Alisons rouse.

What is in it for Ivan? Why should he be worried? They might suspect her of being a double agent but why is that of any concern to him? He was minding his own business at that country house when she rocks up shortly followed by the police. You'd think he'd be more worried the FSB might be wondering where he is by now, or that they're going to start thinking he's actually trying to defect.

When Alison came up with her plan he should have just been like "You're burned, tough st. Not my problem anymore. Good luck explaining this one"

It's 12 episodes like all the others. I've really enjoyed series 5 though. It's been very topical.

Apparently they were finishing the filming of the last episode at the time of the Paris attacks.

Last episode was a bit too hollywood for me, not only has thingy survived being gassed but his meek "terrorist" helper survived betraying them all because of some sort of blood loyalty.

Rubbish, they should both be worm food.

Along with Carrie's familiar distorted face wide eyed quivering chin the whole thing is getting a bit tedious.

Anne Hathaway takes that off perfectly.

This is what I can't figure out either...have they now basically "turned" the Russian guy? He's talking quite a lot too.

It seems that he's shafted himself somewhat.

I think we should hope that Carrie is killed off, she's a pain and a liability for the CIA.

In the real world would they have continued to employ her?

I do realise that. I was referring to when she was at her barking best but was still with them.

Pretty sure it was referring to the Charles Hebdo attack in Paris
