I'm particularly amused by the idea that terrorists wouldn't have thought of placing two bombs on an underground train.
When I was watching it, I was wondering why they didn't have some of the particularly nasty possible attacks, but I suppose having your emergency planning team go "right, let's pack up and go home, there's not much we can do" doesn't make for very good TV.
So, no destroying the dozen or so electricity substations that supply London with electricity (the IRA were actively planning this one but were caught, fortunately, as it'd take about a year before everyone got their power back).
No battery of anti-aircraft missiles in West London (with a plane every 90 seconds or so over work, I'd be surprised if you couldn't get at least three planes to crash before air traffic control managed to divert everyone else).
And no exploding a serious bomb on a Bakerloo or Northern Line train going under the river between Embankment and Waterloo (goodbye tube network for about a year, if it floods).
What would your evil terrorist twin do?
