Max Brown Joins Spooks for Series 9!!!

[Aria]

Looks like a good addition. Are we sure he will be a regular character?

[Nitrus]

In his tweet he says he can't wait to play a Spy, which suggests he will be in the main cast. It's not often we see other spies in storylines, so he could be a guest, but I reckon he'll be a regular.

[YourFutureMuse]

Oooh I hope he is a regular And I also hope he is not evil And in his tweet he said in a few weeks so does that mean filming starts soon? Oooh I hope so

[JHyde]

Several points I would like to make:

1)Trust me to not be online the day something actually worthwhile happens.

2) The guy is a spunk and was great in The Tudors. With Tea Lady in that I also thought "AHA! Yorkshire lad"....all good things come from Yorkshire, as PF demonstrates, and they can have fun with county accents on the set. I also declare my undying devotion to Harry. Still think Armitage nudges him out, but I quite clearly have a thing for older men and MB is too close to my age (two years older).

3) With Nitrus on the point that he might be a young and flashy style spook...bit Danny-esque perhaps?

4) This is probably our 'official' confirmation of season 9. Fire up the new sub-forum, Nitrus!

5) I apologise for the bullet points but they're kind of necessary tonight and hey, you didn't have to wade through one of my typically verbose posts.

6) Thanks nadiatw, who is a very quiet but dedicated, longterm member, for the heads up.

7) Most importantly of all -

Series season 8 Spoiler: show

We don't know yet whether HN is back. But if she's not that leaves Ruth as the only woman on the Grid. For those of us who want a subtle sub plot getting Harry and Ruth to get it together, this is good news. Because NW is now the default female lead.....basically because she's the only female on the Grid. But for all sorts of reasons, I think this is bad for the show. (And this is not about NW or Ruth, but just about balance and having a very different sort of woman around to bounce off the guys - no, not literally, girls.) So, more than ever, I hope HN sticks around. I think Ros has more stories to be told.

[Tea Lady]

I cant believe that he would be the only new member of the team (that's if we are not putting two and two together and getting 100!) There would surely have to be another woman, even if she was another desk officer. If

Series 8 Spoiler: show

Ros is dead then Kudos are going to be saving a fortune on her salary. I am sure MB would not even be on half of what HN was earning. There surely is more money available to employ some more characters.

With lots of alpha males plodding about it may make Harry a little jealous...

[Inker]

MB is certainly a pretty,YOUNG,man, but there's not a character alive that has Harry's "presence". He makes me stumble all over myself.

I'm new here and just HAD to post this..... and a huge H/R fan. While I'm here I'd like to know of websites to help keep me informed of British television. I personally think Peter and Nicola should have a workshop for our American actors!

[almh]

YES!!! A new person on the forum who's a HR fan! Welcome!!!

Anyway, back on topic Have any other actors confirmed that they are going to appear in Spooks?

[Nitrus]

Welcome to the forum Inker!

Ok, I've heard enough, expect the Series 9 Discussion section to be up by the end of the day!

[Nia M]

Have seen some episodes of the Tudors, but am not sure if I saw one's with him in - anyone know which series and/or episodes and/or character?

[Simone]

Apparently he played Edward Seymour. Every episode starting with Season 2, Episode 8 until Season 3, Episode 8

I never got that far with watching Tudors lol
