The first (the grownups/cynics) who can appreciate the artistry, acting, camerawork, even the fittingness of the plot, and rejoice in it. The second (the children/imaginitive dreamers) who have lived it, even if only for an hour a week. For them, Ruth died and Harry was left staring at a bleak future. That is unbearably sad. I wonder which group is really paying the cast and crew of Spooks the highest compliment?

Dog So Small, I have not been throwing around comments making personal statements about how I characterise people who disagree with me on the ending. I have stated that I sympathise with the position that others hold on this while making my feelings clear about the ending which I loved.

You have painted yourself into a corner as the injured party here. Please do not throw flame at all of us who love the ending by labelling us as 'cynical'. This is grossly untrue of myself and certainly other members who feel this way.

You are no better than anyone who you might feel has slighted you by making such a statement. I await your apology.

Harry and Ruth deserve better than this squabbling.

I feel sorry for all you fans who have written so beautiful and thougthful posts over the years.

Why can't all comments be accepted with respect, good humour and grace like on other forums.

The last couple of essays (and i do mean essays for they are exceptionally argued and eloquently put) have made me feel that the ending should have been happier. I don't care how powerful it is or tragically resonating - Ruth should not have died' and M15 should not haave taken so long to respond to a man with a shard of glass in his hand quite clearly marching to Harry and Ruth. And at the end of the day Kudos is doing it for the big bang ending: 'How can we affect the audiences to the highest degree,
Hells bells look at what its made some of us: moralising, angry grieving posters.
Surely that is not a fitting ending for any show...

Im probably gonna regret this in the morning but i'm in yet another one of my Spooks dark moods. Forgive me....

Why should you and Dogsosmall apologize? You are entitled to your opinion. It helps that it the same as mine!
