| | Posted: | | | | Hi, I recently bought the first season of British spy show "Spooks". The thing is that the show has a rather unusual title on the front cover, it says "Spooks 1 Season One". See this image:  The profile for that DVD lists the title just as "Spooks: 1". IMHO that looks rather odd, I have never seen a profile titled that way. What do you think: is "Spooks: 1" the correct title for this release? | | | Bye,

But why should I give up, when it all seems so stupid?

The rest is just fancy typography. Otherwise we would soon have [ spooks ]¹. Well fancy typography aside (which we drop AIUI) That makes it Spooks: 1, but I'm happy with Spooks: Season One for this release too (... note that for season 3 the ONLY thing on the cover is [ spooks ] 3 so it has to be Spooks: 3 And, for 'fun' the 5030305620042 EAN first release of Spooks season 1 has [ spooks ] (no number) and Season One | | | | It is dangerous to be right in matters where established men are wrong |

| | Posted: | | | | Oh, and I forgot to say that I'd keep it as 'Spooks: 1' to tie in with the others.
We have an option on this one but not the later series. But that's just me wanting things to be neat. |

I only have the first six seasons (series) but the third is the only one that doesn't have season on the cover. I did not realise that. In that case, I have nothing to add. I do not know what my decision would be.   |

| | Posted: | | | | Spooks: Season One is the correct and logical entry.
Therefore, you can be absolutely GUARANTEED that this won't be the one the DVD Profiler community majority will vote for in the online. | | | | 99.9% of all cat plans consist only of "Step 1." |
