Such cynicism, tyme4t I have to admit I thought the same thing, especially when David Cameron came on and said he had received a piece of paper with the news on during a Cabinet meeting. Surely he as PM would have been told earlier than the public??

^^ Wouldn't surprise me (On an aside, wasn't there an episode where someone said the country needed some good news, and someone said something like 'Then arrange a royal wedding for goodness sake'?)

YKYAFOSW... you manage to work Bletchley Park into your personal statement.
(Okay, more obsession with Enigma than Spooks, but it's kind of GCHQ so close enough! )

Threat level??? but the threat level has been severe for ages... i'm beginning to wonder if that is the permanent level!!!

I do that frequently.

... when you find yourself constantly using anti-surveillance techniques even though you know you aren't being followed. (I must look like i right idiot... daily)

(Admittedly this also turns into ---> when you're going the same way/route as someone in a city you start to think it's a surveillance mission and you don't want to loose them ).

And before anyone asks, no i'm not a stalker.

Believe me you i get all the weird looks cause i go round double backing on myself in case i have some one following me!!! i end up going past the butchers in my village about 3 times... in different directions... :/

YKYAFOS when you go to write Sam Buxton on the OH&S form as the First Aid officer, instead of the actual Sam working with you that day.

you tell all your family and friends of various episodes and plots and how gripping it is,and they tell you to stop talking,they don't understand,etc like you're a crazy person,but to you they're the crazy ones because they're not watching spooks.

When you spend more time thinking about, researching and writing essays on Spooks than you do on your subjects at school...
