[spoilers] Recurring Themes in Season 8

[almh]

I think that money really is the root of all evil, whether it's poverty or wealth, because with money comes greed and jealously and sometimes desperation to survive. I think that this season is being centred more on money with the depression still ongoing in Britain (yes, I know the other countries have got out of it... well, we have Spooks, so who really cares about the depression?) I think Spooks aims to be topical, so the themes for each series are always what the writers predict will be affecting Britain when it is shown on tv. I think the themes so far shown have been socio-economic (long word I learn in geography, I quite like it actually ) - what happens when the fuel runs out? What could happen if we don't get out of the recession?

I can't think of any more off hand, I'll have to rewatch all the episodes and get back to you
