It's all well and good various news sites publishing this stuff, but I won't be happy until the BBC give me confirmation in the form of an official press release. lol

how long can you hold your breath?
still, the absence of denial of all those (few) rumours flying around might indicate that they.... yeah, best stay suspicious.

They would never outright deny something in response to speculation, they would still wait until they wanted to announce it.

Thanks for posting but this article reads like pure speculation. All they seem to know for certain is that there will be a 9th series. Beyond that they havnt got a clue and that is probably how Spooks has trotted along for the last 8 years. Why would they rest it for a year? They would either cancel because ratings are bad or commission again. It would not make sense to do that. Also I am afraid I dont see Spooks as being a box office money maker I am afraid.

cool article! I hope they don't stop waking the dead or hustle though
and I never knew they'd axed mistresses But I don't care if they axe all other TV shows so long as we get another Spooks series
I hope it won't be the last though 
but I suppose its better to go out with a bang than fade out with falling ratings

oh I know it's just speculation since it came from neither Kudos nor BBC ... merely clutching at straws here
and daily checking the net, in the (vain) hope that one day, something official will turn up.As for the "shelving" idea - I agree that it would make no sense at all... and unfortunately I think you're right about big screen spooks..
still, straws

There are loads of articles on the net at the moment about this sort of thing as the BBC are having to make cuts. I doubt even the BBC know what the future holds for a lot of their dramas at this time.

oh I do see quite a bit of drama in the future of the BBC

This articles worries me..
Mind you it is from the daily mail so most likely a load of rubbish ha

It says at the bottom though:
Quote:A BBC spokesman said: 'It is not true these shows have been cancelled. Spooks will return for a new series in the autumn and Waking The Dead will be back on screens in 2011.
