Confidential: The Official Handbook by Jim Sangster check out website: www.contendergroup.com/books
You American readers are seeing it under a different title 'MI5' on your BBC channel.
Basically, this is an episode guide and other information to the BBC1 series, with photos in colour and black and white, actor profiles and credits - even for production - which wasn't shown on the box. There's a lot of other snippet
information. The only error I spotted is a comment made that Tim Piggot-Smith
followed Martin Shaw in the series 'The Chief' when it was the other way around
and that's no really part of this book anyway. So far, this book hasn't reached
the shelves of the High Street stores, despite being plugged at the end of the
series. It's at a good price and deserves to be read if you like Spooks. It'll
give you something to read while waiting for season 3 next year. GF Willmetts

All right, so why is an espionage TV series
episode guide book being reviewed on this website? Maybe it's to
do with the fact that so many of my reviewers, also SF fans, love
the series and no doubt applies to a fair percentage of, at least,
the British readers here. ![[Spooks] Confidential: The Official Handbook by Jim Sangster](bk_spooks.jpg)
Considering
that aspects of espionage appears like a different reality, it's hardly surprising
that a large percentage of SF readers go for such material when it's done right.
