The sweet tea Harry was making for Ruth is a typically old fashioned British response to shock or troubled times (sorry but it is nothing like the American iced tea being mentioned here). It's basically normal tea such as earl grey, breakfast tea etc. served hot, milky with lots of sugar. Preferably stewed in a tea pot first, although Harry was cutting corners with mugs and tea bags in 5.5.

Reminds of my granny and her tea pot and cosy! Perhaps that is a fitting tribute afterall, depending what 10.6 gives us. Of course, I might have to find something stronger, despite an early morning viewing time....

And the countdown clock that usually heigtens my excitement for the next episode has started to unerve me (in manner of bomb going off). I didnt get this upset when I left school. I wasnt even nearly moved to tears when my nephew was born this week, yet im gettin all teary eyed over the end of our beloved Spooks.

oh, I hear you! It's madness really, but also testament to just what magic has been created over the years, it doesn't come along very often. Very special indeed.

I love that you'll have the family with you to share it. I'll be alone and thousands of miles from home but know there is at least some kindred spirit here.

I especially had to laugh at :

5: There will understandibly be no talking, a rule that was established just before ep 10.5 but needs to be mentioned again and amended due to fellow watchers making noises: eg snorting, sighing and clapping hand to mouth in the manner of "oh my god".

It is sad that we cant all enjoy it together, but I suppose if we all did this at the same time, in a mad sort of way we are.

Agreed, I'll join you. I'll raise a glass when (fingers crossed I know neither HArry nor Ruth die too.
