much better than 24 - By: Zelina Tan, 22 Oct 2007 
I have always loved this show from season 1 & the quality of writing is the best among all the BBC TV shows. 24 should take a que from this series & make it's storylines more believable.Rupert-Penry Jones is just an added bonus to this show:-) I just wish each season had 24 episodes....BBC listen!
MI-5 STARS - By: P. Sien, 29 Mar 2007 Peoplein the US rave about how good shows like Fox Network's 24 is, but after seeing "SpookS" (not a very politcally correct termin the US!!) I realize what crap US shows like 24 really are. I have to say MI-5 is the best television I've ever seen. I hope the US networks don't steal this show's concept & try to recreate a US version of it.

The best season yet...... - By: O. Doyle, 19 Mar 2007 I recently got hooked on Spooks after catching re-runs on tv. I have just finished season 4 & my biggest complaint is that there isn't enough episodes of Spooks per series!
Each episodein season 4 was fantastic from 1-10. Martine McCutcheon was a brilliant addition to episode 1 but the best episode as you'd expect was episode 10. Season 4 sees the usual betrayals, backstabbing, power-struggles, terrorists & conspiracies that we're used to seeing with Spooks but the finale to season 4 is by far the best finale yet! I wish they'd hurry up & get season 5 on dvd as I'm getting withdrawal symptoms already!
one of the best series I know - By: Mr. Ludovic Drillet, 03 Feb 2007 Great, I've seen all the episodes of the 4 seasons. It's always a great pleasure, a bit scary I must say, but so close to our era... The characters are fabulous, I especially appreciate Harry Pearce, & his britishness... I recommend it as much as I can !
I can't stop watching . . . - By: lolly7, 07 Jan 2007 I loved this series, ten hours of riveting near death experiences, betrayals, twists, turns & new characters. It's true that the team faced lots of these threats before (bombs, interfering superiors, traitors or not) but the situations are new & the new characters react differently. I Iiked Dany & zoe, but Adam, Zaf & Jo work well togetherin the same way that Tom & the other two did. Losing Fiona was bad, but the plot was good, building on something we knew since Tom left. Portrayal of Adam afterwards was well done as well I think
No one else so far has commented on Juliet as a character. I really like her, Anna Chancellor is perfect as a strong powerful woman not afraid to say what she thinks on all occasions.
Also, most people here seem to be saying either you like 3 & 4 is bad, or 3 was a blip & now we're back on track. I've likeed all seasons so far, but I think this one might just be my favourite, particularly because of the Ruth Harry thing. Not exactly unexpected I know, but still.
Basically, It's definitely worth getting if you liked the other seasons.
