Oooh, would love a crossdressing fic!

I'll watch "Decisions, Decisions" at some point, I'm just not quite ready yet.

You're definitely right that Moody isn't bad for a man of his time, he's just... also boring. But obviously I was missing some history on him, and that all sounds interesting. At some point I'll try to watch the whole series. It's such a shame that they wouldn't let her and James end up together. But that age difference would be a pretty big thing even now, let alone back then.

LOL. Were creepy doctors just Clifford Rose's thing? I'll try to check that one out.

Yeah, Moody is pretty boring in season 3. I wish they'd done more with him, but a lot of the storylines were already played out in season 2. The writers should have given Harriet a younger lover, though :P if only for the eyecandy. She had a handsome young solicitor flirt with her in season 1, but she never took the bait, probably cause the young guys are all kinda fuckboys (even James is like that), and Harriet won't put up with that nonsense. But with James, I feel like there's genuine emotion behind their relationship, so with a stern hand, she could steer them on the right course... it's just a pity that older woman/younger man age gap relationships are still a taboo! (Though you're right, 20+ years is pretty big - I didn't realize it was such a gap since Margaret Lockwood still looks fab for a woman in her late 50's).

Sorry, I made a mistake. The other spy episode is "To Help an Old School Friend", not "No Flowers by Request". In the former, Harriet investigates the mysterious death of an old classmate's son, who was involved in sensitive research that drew the attention of British security. It's a dark episode for Justice (1971), which means it fits right in with Callan. I like it because we see Harriet's courage in standing up to forces that could very well threaten her life.

LOL, Clifford Rose is totally typecast! Just take a look at his filmography. Half of his roles were him playing an evil interrogator - most notably, Sturmbannfuhrer Ludwig Kessler in two TV shows. Now that you mention it, that could make for a cool crossover with Horst Mohn in Colditz...
