Hello

[CONDOR]

Hello CONDOR signing in,
Hi after ten minutes of writing I hit a button and lost my initial post somewhere in spook land so I apologize now if it should pop up somewhere that it shouldn't.
I am a relative newcomer to SPOOKS, having had series 1 bought for my birthday last month, (primarily due to the fact that I am a huge fan of Keeley Hawes). I must admit that I am now addicted, to the series, not just Keeley!
I thought that the climax to series 1 was fantastic and I take my hat off to the writers for the terrific ending which prompted me to rush out and buy series 2. The amazing thing is that series 2 has been just as good, which often isn't the case. I love the way that the program portrays the characters as "normal" people with both the emotional and physical frailties that us lesser mortals possess, and not as superhuman, impossibly multi skilled "Mission Impossible" style stereotypical covert agents that T.V. often tries to fob us off with.
I do hope Tess pops back up in later series' as I do like the "game play" that goes on between her and Harry.
Another strong point that I have noticed is how well they convey the paranoia that you must experience working in an environment of lies and deceit, and the way that even as a viewer you find yourself drawn in, questioning the integrity of the leading players, this is done so well by Harry, who, one minute comes across as a boss that you could confide in, then next would auction off his grandmother to make himself look good.
Well done I look eagerly forward to series 3 dropping onto my doormat.
CONDOR signing off.
( code name Condor was taken from that great Redford film 3 Days of the Condor, another great spy thriller full of treachery )
