The Ipcress File
As the Cold War rages, ex-smuggler-turned-reluctant-spy Harry Palmer (BAFTA nominee Joe Cole from Gangs of London) finds himself at the centre of a dangerous undercover mission, on which he must use his links to find a missing British nuclear scientist.
Based on the classic Len Deighton spy novel, Harry Palmer has a 94% critics’ rating on Rotten Tomatoes, where the critics’ consensus says, “Slick, stylish, and packing sly nods to present politics, The Ipcress File is a classic spy caper with a modern sensibility.”
The six-part miniseries also stars BAFTA winner Tom Hollander (The Night Manager) and Screen Actors Guild nominee Lucy Boynton (Bohemian Rhapsody).
