Yeah, that age thing appears to have really started to set in in 1950 and 1951, whereas the Tories were appreciably younger, which helped give them the win.

As for your scene, the real implausibility is the idea that Attlee would trust Morrison to collude with him in that manner. :) From what I've read, Attlee really disliked Morrison; he stayed leader of Labour in order to keep Morrison from getting the job until Morrison was too old.

My thoughts were more mundane, like a scene along the lines of Daisy serving Wilf Davies and Wilf saying "Dash it all, Daisy. Norwich all blown to hell, and we can't even begin to get our own back.  We should have listened to poor old Bevins, too right we should have. We'd give the Ivans what for, we would." Or even Daisy just having that little internal monologue, wishing she could bomb Stalin and name-checking Bevins somehow.

Still, Churchill rode his bike to Goldfarb's radar station in TtB, so a quiet fact-finding mission by Attlee to see bombed Norwich doesn't seem that far-fetch, would certainly be rather cool.
