Spooks - Harry & Ruth - GAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!

[Parsleypants]

This is SO tragic but dh is out on the lash and I have no-one to discuss this with - too late to phone anyone. Who thinks they are going to get it together?!

[littlerach]

that's his mame!! DH and I were trying to remember his name last night.


And isn't next week's the last in the series, so maybe it will be a Ruth and Harry cliffhanger, rather tha a will so and so die one.

[edam]

Isn't Harry the only major character left from the first series? Am very impressed that they've kept it going while almost completely changing the cast.

[Fimbo]

Yes, the other Penry-Jones (could be Lawrence) used to be in Doctors. Rupert lives with Dervla Kirwan and has a daughter Florence with her

[Marina]

And a Mner staking out his house with high-resolution binoculars very possibly Fimbo!

[aloha]

I really liked Harry's house. But odd to see him in his casual togs.

[katierocket]

Oh I hope so, I do like Ruth.
DOn;t like Adam, Mathew wotshisname was better.

[jenk1]

next weeks episode looks good, about a conspiracy theory about princess dianas death, bit touchy that dont you think considering the jury,s still out on the cause of her death?

[Gem13]

OK, so now everyone's agreed on Ruth and Harry, what about Jo and....

Zeff or Adam?

[foxinsocks]

Beety, they didn't show the next episode on bbc3 because next week is the last one in this series (I believe?) so they always show the last one in it's correct slot (v annoying!) so not much time for any of these love partnerships to develop!

[oaktree]

did peter firth used to be in teh double deckers in teh 70s?
sorry to butt in!

[foxinsocks]

it was him (in double deckers). It's at the bottom here in his filmography thing.

Marina, I had totally forgotten he was Alan Strang in Equus. We studied this as a play at school - you can imagine which bit everyone was keen to focus on!

[foxinsocks]

here he is as scooper

[aloha]

I like that the storylines are topical and controversial. I like the lefty/anti-Blair bias in them too.
I think the Harry/Ruth thing is being done beautifully atm.

[foxinsocks]

yes - I was just thinking that aloha. It's so beautifully done - it seems so rare on TV at the mo - in any other drama, any hint of love is normally followed, in about 5 seconds, by full on action rather than played out slowly.

It's also uncanny that they shot these much earlier this year but they still seem so topical (e.g. the London bombing one was shot before July 7th).

Can you tape it Beetroot?

How exciting was tonight's episode, hey ???

I thought the ending was a bit mean... he can't take a bullet, can he ?

LOL... (My guess: he does but survives. Pretty boy has had it though, no ???_

Thought the topic was quite brave for BBC1. Doubt her Maj was impressed by tonight's show though !

[puff]

I am going to miss Spooks boohooboohooooooo

grrrrrrrrrrrrr

[hub2dee]

'S great, innit, puff ! Only thing I watch these days.

[puff]

So hacked off the series has ended
