Ok, this is just as I remember from lots of places: MI5 is concerned with domestic intelligence and counter-intelligence. MI6 is concerned with foreign intelligence. Interestingly, neither has the powers of arrest, as say the FBI, they must go through the Special Branch of Scotland Yard. By the way, what was the reason the British wanted Spycatcher supressed? The bit about Roger Hollis is really old. There was a book, a while ago called Too Secret, Too Long by Chapman Pincher (more or less) which was just about Hollis being a Soviet spy.
