For some reason I'd stopped watching Spooks. I'd bought all the DVDs... but had many seasons left unwatched!

Back in May I finally got around to watching them. And I thought I'd try and work out what of the main characters died/left/retired/whatever...


These are when the characters left as a "main" character. Those still alive sometimes show up again (eg Malcolm)

1.2 Helen Flynn (head shoved in boiling fat; 2 episodes)
1.6 Tessa Phillips (traitor; 6 episodes)
3.2 Tom Quinn (decomissioned; 18 episodes)
3.6 Zoe Reynolds (went to Chile; 22 episodes)
3.10 Danny Hunter (shot; 26 episodes)
3.10 Sam Buxton (moved to GCHQ; 20 episodes)
4.7 Fiona Carter (shot; 11 episodes)
5.1 Colin Wells (hung; 31 episodes)
5.5 Ruth Evershed (went to Cyprus - returns season 8; 34 episodes)
6.1 Zafr Younis (kidnapped, killed; 22 episodes)
6.8 Ros Myers (faked death; returns next season; 18 episodes)
7.1 Adam Carter (bomb explosion; 41 episodes)
7.7 Ben Kaplan (throat cut; 13 episodes)
7.8 Connie James (bomb explosion; 16 episodes)
8.1 [ Ruth returns ]
8.2 Malcolm Wynn-Jones (retires; 66 episodes)
8.3 Jo Portman (Shot by Ros; 37 episodes)
8.8 Ros Myers (bomb explosion; 34 episodes)
9.8 Lucas North (suicide,traitor; 24 episodes)
10.1 Beth Bailey (decomissioned off-screen between seasons; 8 episodes)
10.2 Tariq Masood (poisoned; 17 episodes)
10.6 Ruth Evershed (stabbed; 58 episodes in total)

Survived:
Harry Pearce (86 episodes)
Dimitri Levendis (6 episodes)
Calum Reed (6 episodes)
Erin Watts (6 episodes)


Apparently there was recently a movie based on the show. I see it on Amazon.co.uk but not on Amazon.com. So I've pre-ordered the DVD (I can watch UK DVDs; I can't watch UK BluRays).
