Some questions

Just for fun, a few questions to chew over and help get the list started:

1) The all-time biggie: is Willie dead?

2) Was the "hutch" Willie & Mike's office, or was it the Ops Room? Why was
it called the hutch? Rabbits are kept in hutches, and in America a hutch
is also a piece of furniture, generally open shelving, that sits atop a
buffet along a wall in the dining room, and usually contains dishes.

3) What's so special about Malta, for heaven's sake? Cheap location to film
in?

4) Where were the "eastern europe" locations (Sofea, etc.) actually shot?

5) Why shoot Laura Dickens? Why not just cut the deal with the French, then
renege on it later? Or pass them false or outdated information? That would
certainly be Burnside's style.

6) Was the SIS a branch of the Ministry of Defence? I think so, but I don't
recall exactly. Also, were the Sandbaggers Neil's ONLY responsibility, or
was he responsible for operations (as D. Ops) in all the local stations
around the world as well?
