Face Off technology...come on man, Spooks is beyond that crap.
There will be history. There will be reasons. There always are. The guy who called him John obviously knows him and something from years ago. Let it play out and Spooks never disappoints.
Budget cuts are nothing new. Spooks has a strong point of the story. You do not need explosions every episode, or CGI or crap like that. This is not what Spooks is about.

like I said always liked spooks even with budget cuts, like teasers but this felt forced and got a feeling im not gonna like it, some how harry dont know about his past before mi5? humm. bit like ruth finding from nowhere the evidence on the ex home secretary lol, took a bit of digging lol. but i can live with that, not sure im gonna liket he lucas stuff. but will see.
yer i hope spooks is beyond the face off stuff but then again we did have the aweful code 9 so u never know lol. I jus think its one of the 2, im not a fan of either for lucas, but like I said still love spooks, its never been bad, always good.

As regards Lucas, and any history, it may be an old job coming back to haunt him. It could be one of a hundred things with the least thought of happening and everyone going "Oh yeah, that makes sense."
"Nightingale" had been under investigation for some time. Ever since the former Home Secretary had been smeared they were looking. The time from the hotel explosion to Ros's funeral was about 4 to 6 weeks according to the storyline. So, unless you keep an eye and ear out fro the exact time line, you may not make sense of the story.

if the lucas thing is a past cover job coming back then Ill be ok lol, but if its something like he isnt lucas really (not the lucas harry knew before capture) then i wont be happy, lol I hope the spooks writers are reading this lol ;-)
still love spooks, still hoping tom comes back at some point, something like he is working private sector, couldnt keep away or something like they need someone off the grid to help with a rescue or one of the team, harry perhaps and they go to tom for help, would be cool. always liked tom.
got to give it to spooks on the death front , the deaths are alwasy good, not boring or predictable, and u never know who is safe (unless the tv times ruins it lol by saying hermanie leaving spooks to do this ect before anything has aired)

Spooks is as close as you are going to get to the real thing. There is nothing there that makes me go..."that would never happen".

great to see malcolm back, and great that he knew gave a fake to lucas, I wonder what it is albany?
so im a little confused without going back, this american security system they were installing, is it now installed? would that happen in real life, MI5 installing us systems? if it is then thats f***** up. but I did like the little dig at current affairs saying uk tech is out of date, cos at least front line it appears it is, or at least thats what the news likes telling us
i really wanna see tom back, after lucas leaves in disgrace harry finds tom who is a security expert or something for a firm, says how bout it i need someone i Can trust and who can do the job, tom says he doesnt know what came over him, hes missed it and is sorry he burned out but can now handle it and comes back, perhaps?
they need to find sophia myles more to do though, last ep she did F all but look like shes got wind lol.
i would say I want malcolm back but im staritn to warm to tariq. both cant be there, unless malcolm just returns to the series as a recurring role in some capacity when needed

humm, so the lucas plot was better than I had feared and up until after the interrogation with harry believable i think but how he ends seemed to stretch credibility for the character dealing with the chinese ect and what he does to facilitate that, its not the man we grew to know or had become regardless of the back story. but still decent enough, liked how it ended with him as everyone was expecting something else on that roof top.
now the harry situation for the next series, humm, i really hope he comes out of it, spooks isnt spooks without harry, like 24 without jack,
REALLY liked the new guy "specialist" alec, hope he becomes section chief next series, glad its coming back
one thing, did I hear right, the chinese are gonna say they stole it and it works and the uk are ok with that? WTF? lol, glad it wasnt real, harry would never do that, not even for ruth and if he did it would devaluate his entire history. what he did knowing it didnt work is believable and understandable, if it worked then no way harry would do it.
