What a great promo shot! I hope that's on the DVD cover, it's terrific.

It is a great shot with all the reflections going on. Not trying to keep Ros's fate a secret though.

Love that photo! Have you noticed how the reflections are not exactly the precise reflection of either of them in the center? I wonder if that slight off-ness is intentionally conveying that they are not reflecting their true selves or just a straight forward compositional choice by the marketing department?

And it says (to me anyway) that it will be a Lucas/Harry-centric series - and in that order. More development/explanation of Lucas has been greatly needed, and I am looking forward to it.

I hope it expands more on their relationship with each other. There seems to always be undertones to their relationship but it has not been resolved.

Agreed. And Harry doesn't look very happy being somewhat in the background (maybe akin to being in the dark), does he?

Yes, I noticed and wondered that too. Hope it's the first one I'm looking foward to knowing more about Lucas and a further development of the Harry and Lucas relationship.

Notice the clever use of reflections, e.g. what's real, what isn't, what's hidden?

Mind you, it probably means NOTHING at all, but hey, I've got to keep my brain amused while waiting the 11+ days for the new series to start over there in the UK (I'm so jealous).

I am just admiring Harry's tie (and Harry ).

I'm hoping that's exactly what it means. Great undercurrents in just one photo! Can't wait to read all your reports and yes, I absolutely LOVE reading spoilers. Might have to become a "Spook" so I don't go crazy...

Yes, I can't stop looking at his tie either watchstrap. I think when S9 starts we should make sure we comment regularly on his ties in the Harry thread to make sure they get the attention they deserve.

Juts a random thought: I am beginning to think that there is a parallel theme for Harry and Lucas starting to play out as regards their personal lives. Both are dealing with the return of a lost love and their own guilty demons from the past.

They are a lot alike. From a professional stand point both are really able to get the job done but in their personal lives (esp. their love lives) they both need something so much more.
