Spooks: Season 2, Episode 8

2 - 8: Episode 8

Britain is in the midst of a 'winter of discontent' and MI5 have been closely monitoring the re-emergence of union strike action. Firefighters, nurses, teachers, air traffic controllers, council workers and rail unions have all clashed with New Labour and their strike action is bringing the country to a standstill. Unions dominating the political agenda poses a real threat to the stability of the country, but MI5 have had word of something far more serious - they've been informed that a section of the British Army is planning strike action of its own.
