As well as continuing to play Guy of Gisbourne in Robin Hood, Richard Armitage has joined the cast of Spooks for its seventh season as stated in a press release last month (warning it includes details of episodes not yet shown on the ABC. Spooks has only been shown on the ABC for the first four seasons so far):

Gas and Oil, Part One:
Surprise to see playing the Home Secretary is Robert Glenister. Probably due to the fact that he's a regular on fellow Kudos series Hustle.
What a shock that Colin is killed off and quite a tense scene in the aftermath of his death with Adam telling Malcolm to smile.
Wow what a cliffhanger.
Also there was a review of the season 5 DVD which was recently released despite the fact it only started on ABC1 last Friday. Reviewer Samantha Amjadali in yesterday's Sydney Sunday Telegraph gave it four and a half stars saying that each of the ten episodes is to be savoured. |

Gas and Oil, Part Two:
Wow what a conclusion especially seeing Ruth and Malcolm on the phone as things intensified. |

Bought the season 5 DVD release recently as a result of having missed seeing episode 3 on ABC1.
Seen up to Episode 7 (which will be on ABC1 tomorrow night), all excellent episodes. |

| Finished season 5 on DVD ahead of the ABC1 broadcast. It is the best season of the series so far. |

Found out from the Sydney Sunday Telegraph that season 6 is now available on DVD even though it has not yet been shown on the ABC. I have just emailed the ABC on when they will be showing it.
In her review of season 6 the Sunday Telegraph's Samantha Amjadali gave it four stars saying it's brilliant stuff. |

Finally got a response from the ABC about Spooks season 6 & Spooks: Code 9:
"Unfortunately at present the ABC does not own the rights to screen series six of the program or the spin-off series Spooks: Code 9. I am sorry to not have better news on this occasion. Please be assured that I noted your request and made it available to Television programming so that they are aware of audience interest in these programs.
Thank you for your interest in the ABC.
Yours sincerely
Emma Callaghan
ABC Audience and Consumer Affairs" |
