Yes I am, along with my parents who are down for the week!! Ruth looks a tad spinster-ish and scary in the advert.....

Earlier in the year RA said he was doing a series which we know is 'Strikeback', a film which we know is 'Charlie' (which has been postponed until the summer according to the Charlie website which means Lucas is sure to be in the next Spooks as its due to be filmed in late Feb apparently and that was when Charlie was originally going to start filming), and a play but i havn't heard anything more about that. Does anyone have any idea which play he meant?

Well he's always talking about getting a production of Richard III (he was named after him) off the ground but recently I got the feeling he had given up on it but you never know

[silverbirch]

Yes i read that Kirmostar that he feels he's too old and running out of time to do Richard 111. He did say everything he's doing at the moment is on the subject of war so I have been looking out for a play on some sort of war or battle but haven't come up with anything.....why do they have to keep these things so close to their chests.

According to IMDB Genevieve O Riley (Sarah), Tobias Menzies (Home Sec) and Gemma Jones (Connie) are going to be is something called forget me not Talk about a Spooks actors fest :

That's a good spot but seems a bit weird to have Gemma Jones as the lead. I will keep an eye out for it and Tobias.....

Since that's listed as "in production" are we assuming that the HS actually did die?

[almh]

I hope not, because that will really annoy Harry. Not only did he not trust the HS but now he's dead? We'd be on the way to a breakdown for sure.

It looks interesting...

[YourFutureMuse]

I think it is listed as completed, so we can still live in hope...
And I am not sure if Gemma is in the lead role, I know she is listed first but if you read the plot synopisis it sounds like Genevieve and Tobias are the two main characters.

Thank goodness for that; if it was Gemma and Tobias who were the couple I dont think I could watch !
