How did you rate Season 10?

[SweetTea]

Now that the shock of the ending is wearing off - or maybe just sinking in - it's a little easier to look back on the series as a whole. I did rewatch it all before the final ep on Sunday and I'd love to try and sneak it all in again, but not sure if I'll have time before BBC pulls the eps from iPlayer.

In general I enjoyed the overall storyline - the 'old school' nature of it - despite the plotholes one could have flown a medivac chopper through. I do agree it was better than S9, but I think S4 is still my favorite.

GS really grew on me as Calum - I thought him doofus in the first ep and yet at the end he was probably my favorite of the 3 officers. LP wasn't bad but her character wasn't very consistent. MB looked better this season (the hair helped) but he wasn't given much to work with either. Very much enjoyed PF and NW's performances, and JH, AK, and TWJ did well as the Gavriks. SRB as Towers was great as well.

Proof that I would never be cut out to be a spook: I finally noticed that during the opening titles, the little (what I call) firefly lights are spelling out the word Spooks. My only defense is that I'm in the States so I've always thought of the show as MI-5, even though I knew it was called Spooks in the UK. This is the only series I've watched live, and thus have started to think of it as Spooks rather than MI-5.

I'm glad that I was able to watch this series live, as I knew that waiting for the DVD would be torture and that I'd never be able to avoid spoilers to not know how everything turned out.
