How did you feel about Season 9?

[Byatil]

I agree with pretty much everything said above ^

I'm a 16 year old girl, and I could think of a hundred different ways they could have written Lucas out... without the ridiculous nonsensical plot-line and without ruining all the work the previous writers had done building up his character. To be honest, by the time Lucas had disappeared... I just didn't really care. You're supposed to feel something when a well-liked, interesting character leaves a show. It was heart-wrenching watching Roz realise that she'd have to shoot Jo, and equally horrible realising that Roz would have to die for the sake of her country. I even found Adam's death sad - and I'd only seen him in action for 1 episode!

I just think it could have been handled a LOT better :/ I really hope there is some kind of alternate ending somewhere (maybe the other ending was more definite? It is always possible that they had to make the ending a little more open to interpretation as it became apparent RA -might- return?), because this one disappointed me so much. After the brilliant writing from series 7 and 8, this one just pales in comparison. The acting was outstanding, but it couldn't redeem the script for me
