Book Description

To some, they're known as spies. to us, they're Spooks.
Take a look inside MI5, the intelligence agency in charge of defending the UK's domestic security. Every day, these people investigate and assess threats posed to Britain by terrrorists, enemies of the state and international organised crime, using intelligence and the latest in technology to counter Britain's enemies at every step.
This access-all-areas book features interviews with the cast and production crew and top secret insider information on the making of the series, as well as character biogs and episode-by-episode breakdowns for both series. Background analysis of the show's plot points, including a history of MI5 and examinations of the real-life issures behind the storylines, plus a guide to BBCi's internet-based interactive episode.
This complete guide to the hit BBC1 TV Drama is published to coincide with the second series to be transmitted by the BBC in the summer.

I bought this book after I had seen the 1st and 2nd series and is full of excellent pieces of information. If you are a fan of Spooks this is a must buy. It is well worth it!!!

A STATESIDE VIEW 28 Jan 2004
Format:Paperback
Your series, known as "MI-5" here in the US, is terrific, and I yearned to know more about it. This book tells all, and in remarkable detail. I especially liked the last chapter, where Sangster demonstrates his understanding of the business of American TV, and the reasons behind the retitling of the program.
A good read for fans. The secrets of Spooks are revealed!

I like Spooks. I believe it is the most true to life drama on television. The characters are not set in stone. I do note rate this book as I do not believe it gives the series a fair crack of the whip. Very unfunny. I did not laugh even once.
