I liked Alan.
Tuesday is a handy codename, better than his real name, Alan. That wasn't easy, telling his wife. Olivia was genuinely shocked, so there are no leads there. Post-mortem Friday or Saturday, but I'm expecting no surprises. We know the sort of man he was. We have our ways of vetting; they all know we do, and everyone plays along. We take care with all our agents to identify patterns of behaviour that we qualitatively categorize as usual, unusual, abnormal, or alarming. There had been nothing unusual with Alan beyond his recent interest in tights which I understand are a new development in male fashion. I checked them out here:

I told Olivia I was investigating the circumstances of his passing myself; this isn't a matter for the civilian Police. I reassured her that subject to the PM, I am sure a full widow's pension will be forthcoming in due course. It's really not fair to punish the wife for whatever was torturing poor Alan.
