All 32 episodes are on Iplayer now, for 2 months it seems.

I saw the one with Bob Monkhouse in it, is it really 22 years ago?!

I've never seen it, I was thinking of going back to episode one of Spooks

We’ve just got to series 4 of Spooks, and I discovered that I’d never seen series three.
It is simpler than it looks.

In series three they all die and come back as actual spooks.

I've never seen Spooks. I have a great idea for a buddy cop TV show called Tuck and Roll where one of the buddy cops is a ghost. It will be brilliant. Someone should commission me.

Damn, someone has already invented it. (I'd never heard of that.) Mine would have proper murderin' in it.

The theme tune is Saint-Saens's Danse Macabre.  Liszt made a fiendish piano transcription of this shortly after its first performance.
