[evenstar1955]

Just had a look in the TV Mag TV Easy and they are advertising it as coming back the week after next but I wouldn't hold your breath.

Exactly. We can tell the difference between fiction and reality.

The Spooks episode featuring the bomb in London went out on schedule but with a warning beforehand about distressing scenes. If I remember correctly it was mentioned on the DVD extras that they made very slight cuts to remove the more distressing scenes but they were shown in full on the DVD.

What I'm trying to say is, if they can show an episode about a bombing in London barely 3 months after the London bombings of 2005 then I don't think they've pulled it because of anything going on in Pakistan.

Well, at least it's a possible date. But why is it changing so much???

With regard to changes mentioned above between broadcast and DVD: why is it that the odd line of dialogue is missing from the DVD versions that I clearly remember on the broadcast?

Sometimes they are forced to edit them post-broadcast due to complaints for whatever reason.

Back on topic now please, this thread is about the airdate of the new series. Thanks.

Sorry Nitrus, I know it's for another thread so I'll shurrup!

I was so excited when I read this thread title! Only to find out we'll (well you in the UK, me...maybe longer ) have to wait until *November*!!!!

So disappointed!

PS:(Maybe a dumb question)Why is there a count down, if there's no exact date yet?

Because up until yesterday, it was pretty much confirmed for the 29th.

I refuse to take down the countdown just becase the BBC feel like messing us around, I shall therefore just amend the target date as we receive new information.

The countdown is currently counting down to the 5th November, which is the first Thursday in November.

But most of all, countdowns are awesome.

Lord have mercy! I am only up to Series 6 and am still awaitng Series 7 here in the States on DVD. All the anticipation for the start of Series 8 just makes me even more anxious to finally see Series 7 and OH NO!! another year to see Series 8 here in New York on DVD? I wish I was visiting London for the next two months!! LOL

This is driving me mad........

*says loudly so BBC can hear*

if I finally do crack, I've instructed my lawyers to sue the BBC!


*whispers* perhaps that will make them finalise it.....
