I've been watching this series the past few nights (got it On Demand) and it is FASCINATING. It's a series of true stories about real spies and how they operated.
So far I've seen how a top Russian KGB operative became a Double-Agent and helped the Brits and the US enormously during the Cold War. He eventually helped prevent a nuclear war between the USSR and the USA.
Last night I watched an episode where an Islamic extremist cell made up of radicalized English citizens in London was thwarted before they could blow up 19 planes over the Atlantic, potentially killing thousands of people. Like I said, it's all based on real stories and the dramatization is so well done.
Fascinating viewing for History Geeks like myself.
