Produced by BBC Studios, this series tracks the spies on both sides of the iron curtain operating behind the scenes in the Reagan era as east and west navigate a delicate balance of power under threat of nuclear war.
It follows the unstable nature of global geopolitics during the Cold War through the lens of two notorious double agents: Oleg Gordievsky and Aldrich Ames. As President Ronald Reagan and Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher manoeuvre on the world stage, it is the agents that are pulling the strings.
