Series 9 rumours - possible spoilers......

[Kirayuki]

Doctor who is back to 13 episodes in 2010 and Torchwood series 4 will be a full length series like the first two were again. Last years were one off's as Doctor Who couldn't get a whole new series out of David Tennant and Russel.T.Davies now that they are both leaving. The specials made it easier for the switch-over to happen smoothly.

Anyway, back on topic...

Spooks really is an individual show that stands on it's own amongst other BBC TV. I understand their want to axe a few shows but Spooks is not likely to be one of them due to it's high ratings. The BBC are actually capable of some high quality telly and so if they remove some of the junk to make way for the good then i don't mind but i doubt they'd axe their highest viewing shows for a new one.
