man i was so sad after he died because I kept thinking about his son..... he made a promise to his wife to take care and protect his son.... how he died too....
Only things in this show that makes me cry were Fiona's death and not actually Adam's death but that scene at the end with their son Wes. Poor Wes, lost both of parents on so tragical ways.
Came across this show on PBS. Was good. Then i found out they killed off most of the crew in the later seasons. Good show but I wish Rupert hadn't been killed off. He's the reason I started watching the show in the first place. Great vid! Song adds to the sadness of adam's death.
The key element behind the success of this show is the constant threat in the back of your mind that a main character *could* die at any given moment. Absolutely genius writing.
No matter how many times I watch this episode, this bit still sends a shiver up my spine. Especially when Harry goes to meet Adams' son afterwards- that brings a tear to the eye! Spooks really is a fantastic programme, so well written and moments like this show that anything can happen to any character. Ros' death is also brilliantly done. I'd rather watch re-runs of this on a Saturday night then all these daft reality/music shows.
I was so sad when I watched that episode, nothing as good as Spooks for being dramatic, I always wondered how they filmed that shot to make it look so realistic.
@TheYeoman85 Not everything is about class and smoothness, 24 is unique in its style. And to be perfectly honest, 24 also had the harder job of dealing with hour-to-hour continuity and more wide episodic arc than Spooks ever did. I adore Spooks, it's amazing. But it is rather unfair to compare a show that only cranks out less than 10 episodes every year and has less to deal with against one that has to put out 24 episodes every year and with the hard job of keeping to the 24-hour format.
@BetaArtemis quality over quantity mate. fair enough 24 is original. i got to the 12th hour ( i think) and turns out that dana was working 4 the wogs and that emp strike at the hq was a joke so had to stop watching after that. just my opinion. as for the number of episodes it costs about a million quid to make an episode imagine what the bbc could do with 24's budget. food for thought....
AHHHHHHHHHHHHH this and fiona's death made me cry so much can anyone give me a run-down of all agents to die in spooks series 1-8 because I only saw 7 and 8 and five episodes of 4.
In a way, we knew that Adam was going to die. Sadly, Spooks is a realistic depiction of a reality in which the War on Terrorism inevitably requires sacrifice.
Maybe adam will come back as a fruit shop owner. he could be casing russian spies in his neighbourhood and lacing their veges with truth drugs, so when they fall into a deep sleep while shopping at his shop, he can get them to divulge the plans for some dastardly plot that involves all manner of wicked behavior. Imagine that, a vege shop owner saving the world from the brink of disaster. Its plausible. Slap some muscles on him and make him look like Rupert PJ and there you have it
So sad ending for Adam. Such a great character, he was the 1st one that makes me enjoy [MI-5]. I admit I was crying a bit when I watched this episode.
Many thanks to Rupert Penry Jones for having played his role with talent.
If they have killed off the character of Adam, well how boring is that! Why couldn't they have sent him on holiday in Siberia or something? or suffering from amnesia for a few seasons until the actor playing Adam decides he wants to carry on playing Adam? Roz isn't that much of a character to make you come back to watch each week, but Roz and Adam makes a pretty formidable cast. I would prefer the Bobby Ewing Show Scene Dream sequence, personally.
Maybe the guy who plays Adam wanted to do something different. Pity though. I liked that he played a dark hero, even if some of the things that this program seems to play out, are quite disturbing. I hope he isn't really dead. Maybe the makers of the show will do a dream sequence, like they did with Bobby Ewing in Dallas, and Adam suddenly reappears from the shower. Maybe Roz had a bad hair day and a bad dream and Adam isn't really dead, he's in the shower.
oh god, I remember seeing this when the episode aired...I never much liked Adam, but I was still in complete shock, I even cried a little, though not as much as I did with Zaf's death, probably because his was much more drawn out and you sort of guessed he'd be dead after not hearing anything all those months. But Adam's death was so sudden that it was just...shocking, not really sad
This video brings a different element to it, somehow...probs the music
I have never creid so much in my life..i knwo it is sad but i could not care less..By the way what song is that??It probably says somewhere but i am really not obsevent
Ouch. Never paid attention to Spooks until Richard Armitage was on board, and I was so excited to see Rupert and Richard on the same series (Capt. Wentworth and Mr. Thornton, everyone?). Too bad Rupert left the show, hence Adam must die. Heroic death scene though.
I thought he would go in the 3rd episode at least. It feels so weird to see him go after being in 4 seasons and nearly getting killed so many times but always getting through.
did he anouced that he was leaving .i read rumors that he wanted to do other things..but was seriously hoping that he reconsider...i was loving this episodee ..rupert penry jones and richard armitage togetherr .jesuss .who could ask 4 better!? pluss they have great chemistry together...why did he had to leave..i really thaught he'd have a happy ending with rose and the kid...perhaps this is more real!
I read an article a while back saying he was meant to leave midway through the seventh series, the first episode is not midway, that's why it came as a bigger shock when he died. I never heard of richard armitage until he appeared in spooks. adam was a hero and he died as one, that's a good ending for adam, just not for his fans.
i think rupert once mentioned halfway through the series too , but i suppose it was just misspoken. there was an article in a magazine way back last year b4 theyve even started filming spooks or annouced about lucas north where rupert said he just got married, he also mentions briefly that he might just do 1 or 2 episodes in this series so some people might have seen it coming, some might not.but like you said, great ending from adam. <33
I missed that article, when I was watching it I thought it was a joke or something but then realised he was dead only when harry went to see his son wes. I know this is cruel thing to say but I'm glad harry and ros shot that russian guy at the end, I honestly thought they weren't going to make him pay for adam's death at all because of the way they were talking.
well it'll be very surprising if he managed to escape that enormous explosion. i was sure theyd pay for adam's death. he was close to both of them. more than just a collegue. adam was their friend.
really, if he had just jumped out the car and let it roll into the middle of the grass area then he would have lived, and if he hadnt spun it around at the end
Yeah, because although we had built up a "relationship" with him as a character, we hadn't really seen him for over a year so it was strange to see him onscreen again only to be killed within an hour. If he had died in a few episodes time it would mean there was time to feel closer to the character again. (Im trying to make this sound not-gay haha)
