Aw, that's sad. :(
And it's sort of like an Australian Spooks because I'm getting reminders of the Adam/Fiona ending.... although in Water Rats they're police?

Yeah, they're the Sydney Water Police. Not quite Spooks, lol, but I sort of know where you're coming from with the Adam/Fiona ending. Though Water Rats did it first :P.

Truthfully I've never actually seen the episode of Fiona's death; I've only seen clips of it through Adam's flashbacks in series 5. I'll have to watch it sometime if it's as sad as Rachel's death in WR. I loved Rachel. :(

Right, okay. I wasn't really comparing it to Spooks in a general sense, just the whole cradling the dying woman bit reminded me of it for a minute...lol.

You should watch it. I was never that attatched to Fiona, but her death was still sad; I just kept thinking of Wes. :(

Oh don't worry, I knew where you were coming from. :)

Which episode was it in series 4? Wes was adorable! I liked Fiona but never liked Adam. When Adam died I was almost glad (I sound evil!) but then the scene with Harry and Wes came and it was dreadful. He's an orphan. :(

Oh, gosh, erm...... 4.6? Wes was such an adorable kid. And don't worry about being happy when Adam died - I cheered. Tbh I'd forgotten about him once Lucas had been introduced, and throughout the episode Adam was whiny and patronising and I felt RPJ wasn't really trying anymore. I also read in an interview that someone posted that he wanted the show to end once he'd left - pfffft. I'm so glad it didn't, because S7 without him? IT ROCKED.

But, back to the point, I cheered, and then the scene with Harry and Wes came on and I got really sad. It wasn't for Adam in the least, but because Wes had just known what had happened without saying a word.

I KNOW! :D

Badass Ros + hot Lucas + human Ros + spy!gran Connie + you-can't-beat-her!Ros + Jo's gorgeous haircut + no Adam = OMG IM IN LOVE♥
lol.

Spooks have a thing for doing that don't they? Scenes where no-one speaks, but you and they just know. Like the bed scene at the beginning of 8.5. Heart-breaking stuff.

HELL YES. :D It's my favourite series of that show, I think. Though my favourite episode will always be 2.5, because it's a quarantine and Tom is crumbling slowly and there's camaraderie and bitchiness and they never even leave the grid.

All those things you describe are what make it, yep. I'm getting all excited just remembering the awesome. LOVE LOVE LOOOOOOVE.

They do, and they do it brilliantly. That scene I think was actually 8.4, but yes, it broke my heart. Those are the scenes where I get all squirmy-feeling and uncomfortable and then once it's over my brain finally processes what just happened and I cry an embarrassing amount. *g*
