Departure from Spooks
She left the show during Season 6, episode 8.Ros was seen with Ana Beauchay A.K.A Magritte by Kaplan and although he had inadvertently saved her life, Ana convinced her that she would have to kill him with an injection that would be quick and untraceable otherwise her place at MI5 would be in jeopardy, and Yalta's plans destroyed. She went after him, but he reached Jo and told her. Harry and the team had discovered Ros' betrayal but she decided to turn herself in and headed directly to the Grid. After being interrogated by Harry, she became a double agent, except this time, she was spying for MI5 to make up for her treachery.
She went to their headquarters while Adam and Harry followed closely behind. Ros was captured by Yalta, a secret organisation planning to bring America's weapon and military capability grinding to a halt claiming it was to prevent a war, on her way to save Harry. However, she was captured and injected with a lethal poison by Juliette Shaw (ironically by the same poison which she would have had to use to kill Kaplan earlier on). She died as Harry watched in horror as the members of Yalta left.A squad soon arrived with Malcolm and Jo, who looked across the room and spotted the dead Ros.
At her funeral, the team grieve. Once they've left the chapel (and
Bob Hogan has checked the body to make sure she's dead), Adam injects her with an antidote- he had in fact switched the serum Juliette used on her with a sedative which feigned the appearance of death. She awakes, but because Adam knows Yalta would hunt her down if they knew she was alive, he sends her off with a passport, some money and clothes. They share a tearful goodbye. Adam then joins everyone outside in the courtyard to mourn with the others. Jo sheds a tear, but out of the corner of her eye, she sees Ros walking off and, glad that Ros is safe, she smiles and looks at Adam.Throughout the sixth series, Hermione Norris was heavily pregnant, and announced in November that she will return to filming for series of Spooks in March 2008.
