I think she was just talking she would like to return to Spooks and it would make a good storyline, just that...

It'd be too late for s9, but if they really want her to return it should definitely be possible for s10.

Definitely not me. I never found her to be really that a good of a character. She was... I don't know..

Gosh, imagine Tessa and Juliet teaming up together. THAT would be scary.

Poor Harry though. He would be eaten alive !!

I have to admit being a "probie" on the Grid I actually liked Tessa, she had a certain elegance, I loved the reference in the Series 1 narration on the DVD that she was going to be sent to "Narnia", a damp dark cold place in Britain where MI5 agents get sent when they are in disgrace. The irony is that when i was a civil servant working at the docks, they sent all the officers with a "drink" problem to a quiet freight depot out of the public view, it brought those memories flooding back, it just goes to show that the writers had a good insight into the actual workings of the Civil Service Mind. It was however unfortunate that Harry saw Tess as such a threat that he had her kicked out of The Service... "Hell hath no furry than a woman scorned..."

I didn't find myself missing Tessa for the longest of times after she left, but in series nine I kept wishing she would turn up. Jenny Agutter is a very good actress and I felt that there was much more to Tessa than we got to discover. Having said that, I don't know if a character like hers was would work on The Grid anymore. The show has changed a lot since series one and two after all so maybe it would feel weird if they tried to bring Tessa back now.

Anyone else feel this way?

I'm a great fan of JA, would certainly have appreciated more of her stocking top in the lift !!!!

How great would it be if Tessa returned - just for a little bit
