The six-part spy thriller written by Joe Barton (Giri/Haji, The Lazarus Project) was released earlier this month. Set in London, the series follows Helen Webb (Keira Knightley), a quick-witted, down-to-earth, dedicated wife and mother who is also a professional spy.
But after a decade of passing on her politician husband’s secrets to the shadowy organisation she works for – the Black Doves – Helen’s secret lover Jason (Andrew Koji) is assassinated and her spymaster Reed (Sarah Lancashire), calls in Helen’s old friend Sam (Ben Whishaw), an assassin, to keep her safe.
The pair then set out to investigate the murder but uncover a ‘vast, interconnected conspiracy linking the murky London underworld to a looming geopolitical crisis’. It holds a 93% rating on Rotten Tomatoes however reviews from fans were mixed. ‘Well-acted action-filled thriller with a few twists that even seasoned viewers might not see coming,’ Dani posted.
‘This grabbed my attention immediately. I ended up binging on it over two days. Great storyline and acting. Obviously held my attention,’ Mike shared. ‘A narrative and plot so full of holes I couldn’t even start to enjoy the pretty good acting. Absolute mess,’ Alexander wrote.
