Fantastic BBC mini-series: Cambridge Spies

Who would've ever thought Great Britain's most devious/traitorous spies could also turn out to be so compassionate... and ultimately incredibly endearing. This is of course a dramatized retelling of historical events so I suppose factual liberties are to be expected (for the sake of entertainment ).


And what great entertainment it is... Espionage, lies, love, tragedy (gorgeous lead actors)... Cambridge Spies seems to have it all... along with a great storyline and plot to tie it all together.



The four part BBC mini-series Cambridge Spies retells the story of Guy Burgess, Anthony Blunt, Donald Maclean, and Kim Philby. For names synonymous with double-agent espionage. The series follows their lives through their Cambridge pre-WWII days onward into the onset of the Cold War as the four leave a trail of untold harm to the security of their own nation, and the West as a whole.

These two clips are both taken from the first episode, and deal with the 'bright burning flame' (as they put it) of Patrick Kennedy's character Julian bell (not exactly a member of the Cambridge spies, but one of my favorites in the series).
If you're interested in wasting a couple hours with a fantastic drama I highly recommend checking this one out (it comes of course with a great IMDb rating if that accounts for anything). Cambridge Spies is currently available on Netflix and DVD.
