Now that a majority of pubic television viewers have experienced the most recent jaw-dropping season ender of a series of Spooks (MI-5), it’s time to set our sights on the upcoming season 10, set to air this Fall in the UK on BBC One and early to mid-2012 on public television stations in the U.S.  Initial reports from Kudos, the brilliant producers of the series, simply said that season 10 would feature a “huge secret” involving Harry. Additional details have now been released that have me counting the days to the premiere….

“Harry Pearce (Peter Firth) has spent 10 years walking the corridors of Thames House and dodging threats. Season 10 sees the future of the MI5 chief in jeopardy. A huge secret, hidden deep in his past emerges, threatening to destroy him and those close to him. Will Ruth Evershed (Nicola Walker), the woman he loves, stand by him, or is this the end for Harry? And, more importantly, can Section D survive without its leader?”

Official word from Kudos and the BBC continue, “As tensions rise in the Middle East and the UK’s special relationship with America falters, Britain is forced to befriend the new heavyweights on the global scene, none more so than Russia, forcing Harry to revisit old relationships made during the Cold War. Is it time for him to confront his demons and head back into the cold? Will he be able to return?”

True Blood’s Lara Pulver joins the Grid, heading Section D, following the shocking Lucas North betrayal brought season 9 to a close, joining Harry, Ruth, Dmitri and Tariq.

Doesn’t get any better than this. How long until Fall in the UK?
