Agreed to some extent, but the snappy oneliners and sarcasm that so set Harry and Spooks apart have been missing in the last few seasons, and this needs to go back into the script because they really defined Harry's character. In addition, Ruth's only lines these days seem to be put downs, denials (and screams) She used to have some crackers.She used to also show her brillance. With Ros and Malcom also gone, the dialogue seems to have lost its sharpness. Add in the angst of S9 and its slipping into soap opera terrain (dialogue wise) I don't personally believe the writing on S9 to be Spooks at it's best.
