Revealing mistake: The list of intelligence agents names that Johnny Marks steals is a list of the same names repeated over and over again.

Factual error: The bomb in the laptop contains 6 ounces of semtex. Nowhere near enough to "blow up the street." Tom's girlfriend could have gone upstairs and been perfectly safe from the blast.
Ruth Evershed: Shall I hit him again Adam?
Adam Carter: Only if you want to.
Trivia: Spooks does not have actor credits at the end. The Internet Movie Data Base even lists the lead actors as 'uncredited' for many seasons.
The Lesser of Two Evils - S1-E6
Question: In this episode, Patrick McCann and his IRA splinter group plot to blow up "Broad Street Station" in London. In reality, British Rail beat him to it years ago. The real Broad Street Station closed in 1986, and has since been demolished (an office complex now stands on the site). Does anyone know which railway station (or stations) posed as the fictional Broad Street Station in this episode?

Answer: The shots of the tube station closing and the shot of the concourse were shot at Marylebone station. There is also a shot of the tracks in which a sign is visible pointing to Southwark station and the Jubilee Line, and I suspect this is a stock shot filmed at Waterloo station.
