    Nah, she'll just blow saucily on Harry's arm and he'll forget all about it. Would work for me.

    Overall won't miss Spooks, got a bit too daft in recent years, but I will miss that show closing thing where it flashes to inverted greyscale and the screen closes in. That rivals the Eastenders duff duffs for how to end an episode.

    WOH Said.

    They had a couple of filler episodes but last night and the finale were/look to to be right humdingers IMO.

    Yes - she's leaving at the end of the series - that's already been in the news.

    It will be a "spectacular exit" apparently.

    They may be lining up Ros to take over from Harry, if the guy who plays him has decided to call it a day after this series.

    God, it won't be the same without Harry though - He's practically the lynchpin of the whole thing.

    She was gorgeous and the CIA London reps have been pretty tasty.

    1. They use wifi in their office, which is banned in most government environments let alone one as secure as MI5.
    2. The office computers are Macs ???!!!
    3. They can connect to any CCTV in the country in seconds (possibly even to the cheap b&w CCTV found in your local corner shop )
    4. They use wireless keyboards (possibly bluetooth)
    5. Any USB pen drive can be used on the computers
    and they can hop in a car and get across London in ten minutes flat

    I've always thought the least plausible gadget is one they hold up to a digital combination lock to try all the digits in seconds (unless manufacturers of these have some secret obligation to include a "back door", which seems highly unlikely).

    I suppose that they could take up the whole episode trying to pair two Bluetooth devices together.
