White House Plumbers S1
One of Rotten Tomatoes’ most anticipated series of 2023, White House Plumbers tells the true story of how Richard Nixon’s own political saboteurs and Watergate masterminds accidentally toppled the presidency they were trying to protect.
Woody Harrelson (True Detective) stars as CIA officer E Howard Hunt, with Justin Theroux (The Leftovers) as White House lawyer G Gordon Liddy.
Daily Telegraph (UK) says: “Americans may find it depressing – but for everyone else, it is a period hoot begging to be binged.”
The five-part HBO series also stars likes of Judy Greer, Lena Headey and Kathleen Turner.
