If you have not seen this top class British production yet, put it on your list now. While it doen't have the gloss of a US show such as 24, it more than makes up for it with strong topical storylines and gutsy script. Measured perfomances ensure that the show stays believable.

It takes guts for a show with so many good performers to kill one of its star names off mid series, but Spooks does this and justifies every second.

There is not a week episode of this show, and you will be gripped by the final images ensuring that you place and advance order for the second series.
