When do you think Series 10 will premiere?

[Tea Lady]

I think we can come up with a 100 theories why the BBC placed Spooks where it has. It still doesn't make sense to me, I have to admit. The BBC have always been behind Spooks so it must be confident it won't suffer too much. I guess the important thing here is not to worry about overnight viewing figures too much.

I guess I'm just annoyed because I love both shows and have been eagerly awaiting both. Now I will have to record Downton and watch another time because straight after Spooks airs, I will be on the forums and twitter and then bed for work the next morning.

I hope to god you are right A Cousin. Could this be the BBC showing Kudos that there is still life in the old dog yet, by taking a gamble? I'm not saying Spooks can beat Downton, but if it manages to hold it's own and dents Downton????

One thing for sure is that it will get everyone talking. Who will be watching which show??? The publicity has been created all by itself.

Is this our chance to save Spooks? Has the BBC given us that chance? If we (the viewers) do not turn up at 9pm, then game over for sure.
