OMG! Totally shell shocked by all of that so will probably come back later. Totally different Spooks. The filming was different, the writing was different. They have certainly looked back at S8 and thought, we can do better than that. You got to see into the characters more and there was a lot more banter. As for the plot, a bit silly, but hey ho, it worked and still had you on the edge of your seat.

I really liked the new characters, especially Max Brown. He was very good. I think Beth will grow on me over time.

I have already posted my comments on the H/R thread about that and I feel very sad for Harry. I am very confused about what Ruth is trying to do. She did love Harry. She did want him. I can understand why she said no to the proposal. It wasn't exactly great timing but at the end??? Who does she think is going to make her happy, if not Harry. I don't know. Kudos, you really do drag us shippers over the hot coals. I really thought it was it for them tonight.

I liked the team working together. It felt they were one entity for a change. The new Home Sec also had his moments.

As for the opening scene with Harry. OMG! They way he killed the old HS. I was screaming at the TV. Classic Harry. He would have his revenge. What did Harry once say to the old HS? "You will find out what type of bastard I can be?" Well, he did, didn't he.

I am so shocked !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
