Spooks : Season 8
 
Spooks season 8 starts tonight at 9pm on BBC1, anyone watching this?

The last series ended with Harry's kidnapping by FSB agent Viktor Sarkisian.

I strangely thought to myself last night it has been a while since the last series. I then saw it mentioned on another forum today, shame its not in HD!

Only 8 episodes again.

I thought it was good. Excellent to see that they have pleased the fans by bringing
Spoiler: 
Ruth
back so that is great news.
I wasnt too gripped at first, but I'm sure I will get back in to it pretty quickly.
Next weeks episode looks good.

Although they have gone back to a theme per episode style, I wonder what will be the recurring theme this year. There is always something.

Really enjoyed it again, programs like this take the edge of the license fee

I think it may be to do to corruption. If anything to do with this episode is to go by...

Spoiler: 
I just hope Malcom doesn't retire. Spooks wouldn't be the same without him or Harry


Anyone agree with that?

Halcyon 04-11-2009 22:49

re: Spooks : Season 8
 
Yeah I agree cimt.
But we need a few new people so hopefully it will be good to see some new people join the team.

Forgot about this!! Just watching it on iplayer now. Don't they normally have next week's show straight after on BBC3?

Malcom is awesome, and if he leaves the show it would leave Harry as the only remaining 'original' spook

They should bring back Tom :D

I have just watched ep2. It was spooks how it should be... Malcolm's replacement is a young trendy-geek kind of kid.

Spoiler: 
Think Ros might die/get injured next week

Woah! Episode 3 was a corker

Spoiler: 
Just how bad is the life expectancy for an MI5 agent?

haydnwalker 14-11-2009 16:27

Re: Spooks : Season 8
 
I thought episode was good too...hope the rest of the series carries on like that.

Spoiler: 
Poor Jo :(

I was thinking he had to be like that in order to be as far removed from Malcolm as possible. Although between the new guy and Malcolm, I can tell you who I'd rather have fix my laptop :D

Re: Spooks : Season 8
 
:LOL: Yep malcolm would be my choice :D

Pffft, I never liked Jo anyway. She always seemed to have a slightly unstable glint in her eye.

Why'd you think they made the decision? Was causing problems for the cameras. :erm:

So what happened, did Ros' bullet go through the french guy?

Yes it went through Jo and the French Bad Guy.

Re: Spooks : Season 8
 
Made sense that someone was going to die, what with Ruth returning. And doesn't she look a lot older? During her last run she looked slightly cute but boy does it look like time has caught up with her :disturbd:

haydnwalker 19-11-2009 15:30

Re: Spooks : Season 8
 
I remember when the actor that plays Ruth (Nicola Walker) was in some police show with Robson Green some years ago and phwoar she was nice, and yes shes got some age to her now (shes only in her mid-late 40s)

Halcyon 19-11-2009 21:42

Re: Spooks : Season 8
 
Just when we start to get some character development with Jo and she was becoming a great character they kill her off! :mad:

They better get someone new in.

Just double-checking something here... By "someone new" you did mean someone attractive right?

There needs to be some eye-candy somewhere in every TV programme :D

Halcyon 19-11-2009 22:25

Re: Spooks : Season 8
 
Yes, a hot MI5 sexy lady would be nice.

Russ 23-12-2009 23:05

Re: Spooks : Season 8
 
Anyone else disappointed by the ending? Just another cliffhanger about whether or not another spook survives?

Spoiler: 
Although I'd say it's pretty certain Ros' goose has been cooked but you never know with Spooks, she might end up taking Harry's job in series 9.


That's in case anyone hasn't seen it on iplayer yet!

They can't get rid of 3 characters in 1 series...
