I hadn't watched it since Matthew McFadden left, but did enjoy the episodes that were on mnday and last night. I don't know good the fella was that got killed, but I was willing for him to get the car to a safe place before it went up.

Considering it was during the day, I've never seen so little traffic in London!

I think it is very well done and acted. We always enjoy it but you do have to concentrate to keep up with what is happening at times.

Excellent as always...
I reckon this series is gonna be full of a few surprises.. I've half an inkling that Harry Pearce might turn out to be a double agent

Me too
In fact if anyone has seen Wild Geese, you will see the parallels with that scene ...

I wish the makers of Spooks would stop killing off the characters we, as the viwers, like . They did it with the first main character Tom, then the nice blonde agent with her face in the deep fat fryer and now Adam..

Randomly killing off characters is one of the bits that makes it standout.. there is no predictability that X will be saved etc .

Bit like a lot of the books I read.Everyone seems to have jumped on the 'don't give them a happy ending,kick them in the goolies with devestating news' endings

Bar-stewards.Bring back happy feel good endings

Love the program, one of the few I actually watch reguarly, was gutted Adam has gone out even though I heard it was coming.

Anyone else heard a rumor that Zoe will make a reappearence?

The bad news is this series is only 8 episodes long as opposed to the usual 10

Swiss, the Wild Geese link was a deliberate nod

I have to say I rather liked series one and two. The cliffhanger at the end of season one being very well done. I've been meaning to purchase the other seasons for a while, but haven't got round to it. I know that many of the main characters have left/been killed off and replacements have come in. Thankfully Harry is still there though

I do like the fact that they are not scared to kill of main characters though, not many shows will do that, or those that do can tend not to survive too long.

I do occasionally see an episode on TV over here, but I know it's cut due to the advert breaks that need to be inserted, so I feel there is some plot being left behind, and sods law denotes it'd be something small but important.

Adam.................!!!

STORYLINE REVEAL...you'll know if you saw the endings of the last episode..

it looks like another one gets killed next week... they obviously don't like to keep the chaps for too long on this programme

Spooks is great... don't like the look of the new chap though. I might ask Harry what he is playing at putting Lucas back in, when I see him in my local Waitrose again

I like it when they get killed off, it makes it more exciting I like Spooks, it makes being a secret agent look really easy
