It occurs to me that Claire deliberately asked Clinton about Elliot so he'd retaliate by asking about Marten just so she could mention the job offer from Canada without seeming too self-absorbed. It isn't as if Marten has any particular ties to Northampton that he can't keep up by phone call or video message, so I'm now calling it that there is a very high chance that he and Claire are going to be leaving the regular cast after Dora and Tai's wedding.

Okay, so, I just want to point out what a big stressing point being asked to move for a relationship is to Marten specifically. I don't think this is signposting Marten leaving the cast, I think this is signposting Marten being presented with his personal trigger point.

Stoon:
It's true.  We can get touchy about being compared to Americans.

hedgie:
Who wouldn’t?

Yep, I think this is pretty evident from the expressions in panel 2 and how quickly she jumps in to answer in panel 3.

TV4Fun:
Apparently Russia invaded Ukraine in the QC-verse too.
