I am counting down to Sunday where they show Harry looking over the edge of the building at a nasty car crash below and Lucas legging it down the stairwell

Adam and Dimitri...

TheSmallPrint · 11/10/2011 11:53

'Adam and Lucas' I think you'll find Tip

Only as G of G
All 3? Why not

josephinebonaparte · 11/10/2011 16:53

Shouldn't Adam have come back from the dead by now? or Ros, or Lucas, or Tom

Biscuitsandtea · 11/10/2011 17:02

Did Tom ever actually die?

Or just get shuffled off to an 'institute' in a straightjacket?

Biscuitsandtea · 11/10/2011 17:04

And good point, I don't see why Adam, or Ros getting blown up should stop them from reporting for duty. And we only think we saw Lucas fall. We never saw what happened? The Russians (or Chinese or whoever he was working for) could have had a giant blanket down there and caught him (like in a cartoon) and smuggled him away, and Harry just didn't notice cos he was so high up?

Abra1d · 11/10/2011 17:41

Oh please bring back Adam and Ros. I Felt SAFE in my bed when they were around. They can't really be dead.

Don't miss Mad Lucas.

Has Tom stopped being mad by now? Can't he come back?

PassTheTwiglets · 11/10/2011 20:01

Tom didn't die, no... What's your verdict - was Tom cute? At first I didn't like his character much (thought him a little bland) but really got to like him towards the end. Then I find myself thinking he was a bit cute too...

But Tom is now defending France's homeland security as one of The Three Musketeers.

thestringcheeseincident · 11/10/2011 20:19

I'm with you Abraid. Ros wouldn't be stuffing around with velcro rollers and pretty woman boots.

Abra1d · 11/10/2011 20:21

She'd be polishing her leather jacket.

thestringcheeseincident · 11/10/2011 20:21

I can't really remember much of Tom. I missed a few early episodes (but recall with much horror the deep fat fryer, and the one where his girlfriend got locked in the bomb house). I don't think he was good looking. I like the pretty boys!

ComeIntoTheGardenMaud · 11/10/2011 20:25

Ros would be the one with the high velocity rifle and a nice one-liner.

Blimey, it was the worst episode yet.

Why are there only five of them doing anything? There's a bomb in Trafalgar Square! And Swishy is the least convincing special agent I could imagine, all I could think was when does she get the time to buy nice tea towels?

I am still Grin at the thought of all the ghosts coming back for a finale.

ComeIntoTheGardenMaud · 11/10/2011 21:00

Yes, The Bloke and I commented years ago that, although the people come and go, there are still basically about seven people protecting the country from sundry baddies - although occasionally some speechless security-bots turn up to lend some extra muscle.

PassTheTwiglets · 12/10/2011 14:23

Security-bots... that would be CO19...

Maud, have you seen The 3 Musketeers and is it any good? Was planning on seeing it but the reviews are dreadful.

stringcheese, that one where Tom's girlfriend was locked in the bomb house was soooo exciting! I really remember that one! I thought they were a lovely couple, I was really cross with him for dumping her.

HalleLouja · 12/10/2011 20:46

Well its Harry versus the whole of the CIA! Miss Zaf (just cos he was hot), Adam, Tom, Zoe, Danny, Ros, Malcolm, Colin and (now) Tariq. Sure there were others out there who deserve a mention.

In fact my DC were both named after the same as two spooks regulars.

I will be sad to see it go but its not as good as it used to be. Erin is rubbish and even Dimitri seems a bit soft. As for the script writers.... they deserve to be shot.

Biscuitsandtea · 12/10/2011 20:49

Agreed HalleLouja - I have always loved Spooks but I feel that this series isn't as well written or acted (2 things Spooks was always really good at) and I feel as if it is time for it to go?

TheSmallPrint · 12/10/2011 20:51

you think they'd try and go out with something really stylish that we'd all remember rather than an episode of the Woodentops as Maud so beautifully observed.

Forgot Lucas and the unbelievable plot where he was shown as a murderer and all round bad guy. He was hot / a great addition to the team.

TheSmallPrint · 12/10/2011 20:56

How exactly did you forget the hotter than hot spy that is Lucas North???

Waswondering Elena is not frozen looking, she has an air of elegance - I hope Harry walks off in to the sunset with her and ditches the sour faced Ruth. She is so miserable ALL the time!

ComeIntoTheGardenMaud · 12/10/2011 21:36

Twiggy - No, I haven't seen The Three Musketeers. We saw the trailer when we saw Johnny English Reborn. The Girl is keen to go but I thought it looked dire of insufficient dramatic value.
