[spoilers] Harry and Ruth: Back With A Vengeance? - JHyde - 17-01-2011 08:00 AM
Everything up until and including season 9 is fair game.

I'd just like to mention that I've updated a rather raunchy M-rated HR story on fanfiction.net. It's called "Intimate Encounters".
If it's not too much trouble and you like reading HR smut, then please read and leave me a review. 
If this is high-jacking this thread, then I sincerely apologise.
P.S: for the record regarding the poll, I like to dream of them getting together
; but honestly, I can't see it happening on-screen.

Hey, read and reviewed your story, it is great. I'm not under this name on FF.net 'C0123. I would also rec to every other HR smut lover
Yeah I wasn't sure what to put on the poll, I would love for them to get together, but I think the writers may allow them a little bit of happiness just to snatch it away, if they give them any happiness at all. Just look what happened when they went on a date!

I voted for a happy ending for H/R. And why not? I wouldn't want it to be a big thing for the show, just get them together and move on. I also think there would be more scope for story lines with them together. And if they are not together soon I don't think I could cope with another series of will they, won't they.

Is it too late to petition Kudos? I'm guessing the overall story arc will have been decided by now as filming begins soon. I know they change scripts at the last minute, but I'm sure the overall plot outlines have been agreed.
I think we should highlight the story potential for them to be togther without it becoming mills and boon. Having another will they/wont they season actually does that. The story could be moved on. Both have sacrifced themselves for each other. SO move it on Kudos, PLEASE???

Completely agree. There's much more scope if they are together. No more pussy-footing around. Too much more misunderstanding/angst would be boring, even for me!! And they can't just ignore the relationship entirely to get around the problem - not after they've led us down this road in S9. Only one way to go in my book.
Come on Kudos!!!

*gets back from college, finds new thread and screams*
KUDOS!!!!!!!!!!!! Be kind... please!!!!!!
Voted yes, I agree, if they were together, there would be no more of this "hiding from your feelings" and "Will they/won't they"
Ruth/Harry must be one of the longest will they/ won't they relationships I've ever seen on TV, (what is it now 7 Series? S2,3,4,5 8 and 9 where they've been working together?), and of all the Spooks couples over the years, I'd say they most deserve some kind of happy ending...
For the will they/ won't they to end, in my eyes they would either have to get them together, or just kill one of them off (And if that happened I think there may be a large gathering of very angry people maybe with pitchforks
)I can't see how it would really effect their professional relationship, actually I'd say them NOT being together effects them more, having to pretend like there's nothing there when they know there is
Somehow (Ruth in particular) doesn't see it that way...And having a repeat of S9 relationship-wise us well... just a repeat, it gets boring
loladom is right, another Series of Will they/Won't they, I don't think I could bare it, unless of course there was another Series afterwards but I still get the feeling S10 may be the last...last Series and last chance
in fact even just a chance where they both actually admit to each other how they feel would be nice
DogSoSmall... oh yes, only one way to go!
You're right, there's no way they could ignore the relationship completely, it wouldn't just annoy quite a few people, but H/R really is part of the show, of course the story of the week is a main reason people watch but relationships, in particular Harry and Ruth's relationship really does touch of the emotional and personal side of the show, their relationship differs from any other on the show, it's unique after all they've been through and done together, Ignoring it would take a chunk of the show... it wouldn't resolve anything, neither would casting it aside, maybe they ended S9 with Harry, his investigation ect, so they could focus on him in S10, and if there's focus on Harry, there's always going to a lot of focus on Ruth as well
... there's hope PPPLLLEASE KUDOS! Be nice...

I do hope that Harry and Ruth are a goer next season. I just can't bear Harry's sad face any longer if it doesn't move on in a positive way!
And Kudos (and all TV land people everywhere), listen up. We the general public can cope with shows with couples over the age of 40. They really don't frighten the horses. Those of us of that sort of age are still out here, in relationships. Please show us some respect and reflect us on TV. We are not all mistresses or naggy wives, just normal folk with challenging lives. Go on, break free from the shackles of your stereotyping with Harry and Ruth. You never know, it might catch on!

Well said, FS.
And so right, Watchstrap. You've hit the nail on the head for me. That's exactly why I've got so hooked on Spooks - proof that there's life in the over 40s!!!!
RE: [spoilers] Harry and Ruth: Back With A Vengeance? - Obsession - 18-01-2011 10:09 AM
Thanks Spook91 for your review.
Loved your comment watchstrap.
I've wondered about that a fair bit too. Kinda got me annoyed they have to be so quaint, while Ros and Adam are at it, and Lucas with all his women.Give us the goods.
