Though the producers knew that Macfayden would leave the series, they did not know ''when'' he would do so, and so the first two episodes were initially written without him. In either case, the producers created a new character, [[Adam Carter]]. In addition, the writers heavily researched the episodes; many of the story lines are based on truth. The producers also took information from advisors who were ex-MI5 officers. The series was directed in five blocks of two episodes in each. Filming started in January 2004 and took place over six to seven months. Shooting took place almost entirely in London, England, with some scenes shot in a cross-[[English Channel]] ferry in the fifth episode.
