Spooks draws recruits
Spooks, the BBC series also known as “MI5″ in North America, is currently shown on BBC 1, BBC 3, Ned 1, A&E America and Canada.
Apparently, the series is pulling in new recruits for the real MI5: “Despite the horrifying scenes in last Monday’s episode, which showed a young member of the team being killed by having her head plunged into a deep fat fryer, the series has given MI5 a much-need publicity boost, with applications almost doubling after the episodes.”
