Glad Lucas relented and took his own life not Harry's, would have liked to have a closing scene to reunite Harry with the others, especially Ruth of course. On the plus side, they're both still alive and assuming NW's in the next series then I really hope the storywriters develop the Harry/Ruth relationship in a positive way. There's too much history between them to just let it dissipate away with a whimper, instead S10 needs to do them justice.

Here's also hoping for a bit more light relief in S10 - ok, there's going to be the usual terrorism plots but please can we have some less serious outtakes round the edges like in previous series? It's true Spooks has a great edge but it doesn't have to be all dark.

My ideal scenario for S10 - Harry survives the review, he and Ruth have a new found understanding, the team foils some other terrorist plot, and the 2 of them bow out together at the end of the series...

Absolutely!! What was the point in having Lucas tell Ruth to go for it with Harry if they are just going to shut down their relationship for good? Give them something to smile about - they've paid their dues over the years.
Maybe if he isn't her boss and is under suspension then they dont have to have a boss/junior relationship - shades of that great scene on the bus in Series 4.

Yeah, that could give them the freedom they need and let things (finally)develop. Just wish we didn't have to wait til next Sept to find out!
