MI5 dvd boxset

As a long-time time fan of spy flicks and Le Carré novels, I've awaited each new season of MI5(Spooks) seasons 1-9 dvd boxset with mixed anticipation and low dread. Surely, I think, it can't keep up the standard of excellence, both in plotting and production values; surely MI5(Spooks) seasons 1-9 won't be as compelling as last; thus I surely I inoculate myself against disappointment. And once again I need not have bothered. This season of MI5(Spooks) dvd is a nail-bitting as the first, maybe even better. As other reviewers remark, it's not at all necessary to have seen the first 6 seasons of MI5(Spooks) 1-9 dvd to enjoy these episodes. That's one of the many benefits of the ever-changing cast. The other, of course, is realism. In that business, the players don't survive indefinitely. Whether it's casting by choice or by default - several actors have used this as a springboard - the turn-over of the team keeps the plots of MI5(Spooks) 1-9 fresh and keeps silly stuff to a minimum.
