Secret Agent

In this thrilling BBC adaptation of Joseph Conrad's timeless novel, Golden Globe® nominee Toby Jones (Detectorists, The Hunger Games) stars as Anton Verloc, an unassuming Soho shopkeeper. Unbeknownst to even his loyal wife, Winnie (Vicky McClure, Line of Duty, Broadchurch) , Verloc also works for the Russian embassy as a spy. Wishing to spur the London authorities into action against a group of local anarchists, Verloc's employers give him a mission: plant a bomb at the Greenwich Observatory to paint the anarchists as terrorists. Verloc abhors the idea of killing civilians, but if he fails, his identity as a spy will be exposed. "Fascinatingly prescient as well as moving...this [is] as much a human domestic tragedy as a political spy thriller about a world in trouble" -Radio Times (UK). The fantastic cast also includes Stephen Graham (Boardwalk Empire), Ian Hart (Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone), Tom Goodman-Hill (Humans), David Dawson (Ripper Street), and Charlie Hamblett (Babylon) .
