If you wish that future dystopias had more scenes of hot young fashion models violating your civil liberties, then the BBC's new show Spooks: Code 9 is for you. A spin-off from the BBC's 24 clone, Spooks, Code 9 takes place after a nuclear attack destroys London. With the central government wiped out, it's up to local authorities to keep order.
