There are countless scenarios for the ending of Spooks and so many options, as you prove Silktie, which have the same hammer blow. I'm still scratching my head at the one they chose, all these months on.

And if you are doing requests...perhaps an immediate follow on from the epilogue, Silktie

I suspect one of the reasons they went for the ending they did rather than something similar to Silktie's alt ending (which I much preferred) was to stop people asking for a S11. I for one would have loved to have seen Harry and Ruth together, but with Harry on the Grid and Ruth working for the HS. I would think there would have been a fair amount of conflict, Ruth torn in 2 different directions and more of the fantastic SRB! I think if Harry and Ruth were both still alive and working, then calls for a new series would have quite loud; by killing Ruth off they stopped a lot (though by no means all) of that talk!

Fortunately we have Silktie's great stories to keep us going!
