On this week's episode of Unclear and Present Danger, Jamelle and John watched Tomorrow Never Dies, the 1997 action thriller, the eighteenth film in the James Bond series and the second to star Pierce Brosnan as fictional MI6 agent James Bond. Directed by Roger Spottiswoode, it follows Bond in his effort to stop the media mogul Elliot Carver, played by Jonathan Pryce, from starting World War III in order to expand his reach over the world's information environment.Is Tomorrow Never Dies the superior film to Goldeneye? Is the power-mad media mogul a more relevant villain in 2025 than it was in 1997? How different is our media landscape, really, from that of an earlier age of American life? How much fun do you think Jonathan Pryce was having on set?Tomorrow Never Dies stars Pierce Brosnan, Jonathan Pryce, Michelle Yeoh, Teri Hatcher, Götz Otto, Ricky Jay, Joe Don Baker, Vincent Schiavelli, Judi Dench and Desmond Llewelyn.The tagline for the film is “The Man. The Number. The License...are all back.”You can find Tomorrow Never Dies to rent or stream on Amazon Prime and Apple TV.Episodes come out roughly every two weeks (we're working on it) and our next episode will be on Barry Levinson's Wag the Dog.

October 2025 Today GCHQ is an independent British intelligence organisation. However during World War 2, GC&CS, as it was then called, continued to be subordinate to the British Secret Intelligence Service, known as SIS or MI6. The Chief of SIS was also the Director of GC&CS. In this episode, we explore the relationship between the two organisations, the part that SIS played in supporting GC&CS, and the ongoing presence of SIS at Bletchley Park itself. Head of Content, Erica Munro, is joined by our Research Historian, Dr David Kenyon, and by a special guest - historian and expert on the wartime history of SIS, Dr Claire Hubbard-Hall.

The brilliant mathematician and GCHQ codebreaker was found naked, decomposing, padlocked from the outside in a red North Face holdall. The key was inside the bag, under his body.Two forensic experts attempted to replicate the scenario 400 times. They failed every single time.Was it murder? An accident? Russian intelligence assassination?

Donate (no account necessary) | Subscribe (account required) Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today's top stories shaping America and the world. In this special edition of The Wright Report, Bryan delivers a breaking update on peace in the Middle East — as Israel and Hamas accept President Trump's peace plan. From the release of hostages to a new path toward Arab-Israeli reconciliation, today's report covers the facts, intelligence insights, and listener questions on what this historic moment means for the world.   Trump Announces Peace Deal Between Israel and Hamas: President Trump revealed that Israel and Hamas have both signed on to Phase One of his 20-point peace plan, with help from Egypt, Qatar, and Turkey. “This means that all of the hostages will be released very soon, and Israel will withdraw their troops to an agreed-upon line as the first steps toward a strong, durable, and everlasting peace,” he said. The agreement includes a ceasefire, the release of approximately 20 surviving hostages, and Israel's withdrawal to key defensive lines.   Prisoner Exchange and Humanitarian Aid: Israel will release about 2,000 Palestinian prisoners within 48 hours while Hamas returns the living hostages. The bodies of 28 murdered captives, including two Thai citizens, remain withheld. In exchange for disarmament and the entry of humanitarian aid, Gaza will move toward a transitional governance phase under international oversight.   The Road Ahead — Hamas Must Go: Phase Two of the plan requires Hamas to disarm and give up control of Gaza. Trump's decision to pledge U.S. military defense to Qatar — a key Hamas ally — may have been part of a broader deal to pressure the group's leadership and expand the Abraham Accords. “We gave them something massive so Trump could get something massive in return,” Bryan explains.   Listener Q&A on the Peace Process: Bryan answers listener questions about why hostages are being released slowly, why Hamas might accept defeat, and why this peace effort may succeed where others failed. He describes a Middle East transformed: Iran weakened, Hezbollah diminished, Syria and Lebanon reshaped, and Gulf nations eager for modernization.   Intelligence Services at Work: Mossad, the CIA, MI6, and Arab agencies are already recruiting informants and installing surveillance systems to stabilize Gaza. Bryan explains how spies will penetrate interim governments, military forces, and communication networks as Gaza transitions to a monitored peace.   Challenges Ahead — Extremism on Both Sides: Bryan warns that both Palestinian and Israeli extremists could attempt to sabotage the deal, but Trump's leverage with Arab governments makes large-scale rebellion unlikely.   What It Means for America: A lasting peace could allow U.S. forces to withdraw from the Middle East, focus on China and Latin America, and enable the deportation of radicalized Palestinians and Islamists from the U.S. and Europe. “If this holds,” Bryan says, “it's good for Israel, good for Arabs, and good for us. Bravo, Mr. President.”   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Keywords: Trump Israel Hamas peace plan, Middle East peace hostages release, Gaza ceasefire international oversight, Hamas disarmament phase two, Qatar defense pledge Trump, Abraham Accords expansion, Mossad CIA MI6 Gaza intelligence, Palestinian prisoners exchange, Biden foreign policy contrast, Gaza transitional governance, Arab Stabilization Force, U.S. withdrawal Middle East focus China, deportation of radicals Europe U.S.

In these dark times, we must fight evil with the most powerful weapons we have.The Rosary is foremost among them.Join the Great Rosary Campaign today at: www.GreatRosaryCampaign.com.The Great Rosary Campaign is a yearlong mission for the conversion of cultural leaders. We will announce a weekly call to pray every Sunday for specific fallen-away Catholics and non-Catholics.THIS WEEK of the Great Rosary Campaign, we will pray for malign actors within the various intelligence agencies around the world (CIA, MI6, Mossad, etc.), and against any participation they may have with demonic entities.The SUGGESTED PENANCE this week is a 24 hour water fast, adjusted for your state in life.Countless Saints and Popes have told us that the Rosary is incredibly powerful for three things in particular:Keeping the FaithMoral renovationConversions of non-CatholicsThe Great Rosary Campaign is also based on several biblical themes and principles.First, PRAY FOR OUR BRETHREN. “Pray for one another…” (Jas. 5:16). “So then, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all men, and especially to those who are of the household of faith" (Gal. 6:10).Second, PRAY FOR OUR ENEMIES. “You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.' But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven" (Matt. 5:43-44).Third, PRAY FOR ALL MEN, PARTICULARLY LEADERS AND THOSE IN AUTHORITY. “First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all men, or kings and all who are in high positions…” (1 Tim. 2:1-2).Fourth, GOING INTO BATTLE WITH THE ARK. When the ancient Israelites came to Jericho, God didn't tell them to besiege the city. Instead, He told them to march around it with the Ark of the Covenant seven times, and on the seventh the walls would fall. We will now "march" in prayer for seven days with the New Ark of the Covenant, Our Lady, through the Rosary. We pray in hope that on the seventh day, a day especially devoted to Our Lady (Saturday), extraordinary graces of conversion will be given to those we are praying for.Fifth, EVANGELISM AND APOLOGETICS = LOVE + ARGUMENTS + PRAYER + PENANCE. Ultimately it is God who reveals Himself to a soul, and empowers them to say "yes" to Him by His grace. He chooses to use us, but He does not have to. We must remember that as we evangelize and defend the Faith, our arguments will be fruitless unless informed by love (charity), and reinforced by prayer and penance.Sixth, RETURNING GOOD FOR EVIL. “Do not return evil for evil, or reviling for reviling; but on the contrary bless, for to this you have been called, that you may obtain a blessing" (1 Pet. 3:9).Sign up to take part in the Great Rosary Campaign today: www.GreatRosaryCampaign.com

On this week's Espresso Martini, Chris and Matt break down Pete Hegseth's speech at Quantico, where he and President Trump summoned 800 generals and admirals for what turned out to be a culture-war lecture on grooming standards and “wokeness.” They examine what it says about civil-military relations in Trump's second term and the risks in treating the armed forces as a political prop. Then they turn to the Secret Service's discovery of a massive SIM-card farm in New York linked to swatting threats and fraud, and what it reveals about the intersection of cybercrime, sabotage, and telecom vulnerabilities. From there, they look at how the US government shutdown is playing out inside the intelligence community—why frontline missions continue while contractors and support staff face furloughs that erode resilience. Finally, they discuss MI6's launch of a new dark-web tool called Silent Courier, designed to encourage potential sources to walk in virtually, and weigh the promises and dangers of this digital era of espionage.

As Germany conquered Europe in 1940, the UK desperately needed foreign reinforcements. When the American people hesitated to help, MI6 conspired to secretly change their minds. But how far did the influence go? Conspiracy theories suggest the US President may have conspired in the psy-op on his own people… and together with MI6, may have concealed tips to prevent Pearl Harbor.

Alan Turing était un scientifique unique en son genre. Un visionnaire dont le talent et la force ont notamment permis d'écourter la Seconde Guerre mondiale d'au moins 2 ans ! Pourtant considéré comme le père de l'informatique et de l'intelligence artificielle, ce savant n'a eu une aucune récompense de son vivant. Pire, personne ne connaît son nom, ce qui est le revers de la médaille des agents secrets. Turing a travaillé une bonne partie de sa vie dans la plus complète confidentialité au sein du MI6, les services secrets anglais... Venez découvrir l'histoire de ce héros, geek visionnaire, qui a pensé le 21ème siècle avant tout le monde. Hébergé par Audiomeans.

President Trump says Netanyahu will have his backing to "do what he has to do" if Hamas does not agree to the plan.Also on the programme: Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood says migrants will have to prove they are contributing to society to earn the right to remain in the UK. We hear from fellow cabinet minister Emma Reynolds. And we look back at the career of Sir Terry Farrell, the leading British architect behind London's MI6 building, who's died at the age of 87.

Former head of MI5 Baroness Manningham-Buller joins Lord Speaker's Corner to discuss the relationship between MI5 and MI6, reading upside down, meeting Vladimir Putin and whether Russia is at war with the West.Eliza Manningham-Buller, Baroness Manningham-Buller, served in MI5 for 34 years, becoming Director General in 2002 before retiring in 2007. She spoke to Lord McFall of Alcluith on 22 July 2025 about her career, including how she joined MI5, her family connection with espionage and leading the Service in the aftermath of the July 7 bombings:“I had learnt something from the military called ‘battle rhythm', and I expected us to be flat out for some time on this, our role being to help the police in understanding this crime, this atrocity, this horror, and therefore I wanted people to come into work fresh.” She also dispels a common misconception of the relationship between MI5 and MI6:“The ‘Le Carré' view that the two organisations are constantly at each other's throats is entirely fictional. We both help each other, as we do with GCHQ. It's a close-knit community. The other very important partner for MI5 is the police.”Baroness Manningham-Buller later explains she thinks it might be right to agree with foreign policy expert Dr Fiona Hill's assertion that Russia is already at war with the UK and the West:“Since the invasion of Ukraine, and the various things I read that the Russians have been doing here, sabotage, intelligence collection, attacking people, and so on… Fiona Hill may be right in saying we're already at war with Russia. It's a different sort of war, but the hostility, the cyber-attacks, the physical attacks, intelligence work is extensive.” She also shares her experience of meeting the Russian President 20 years ago following the G8 meeting in Gleneagles:“We all hoped that the past history of Russia wouldn't prevail, and, at the end of the Soviet Union, we would have a potential partner, and that was one of the reasons why Putin was with us for the G8 in 2005… I met him when he came back to London. But actually we were wrong in that, because Russia is extremely hostile to the West and we've seen it in all sorts of ways… I didn't anticipate that within a year, he'd be ordering the murder on London streets of [Russian dissident Alexander] Litvinenko.”Listen to the full episode to find out more.See more from the series https://www.parliament.uk/business/lords/house-of-lords-podcast/ Hosted on Acast.

ANNOUNCEMENT -- IT'S HERE! 'Being James Bond: Volume Two' is officially launching! After 15-years of researching, writing, and editing, I'm both excited and relieved to share that the second volume of Being James Bond is officially out there.

In this week's One Decision In Brief, Christina Ruffini and former MI6 Chief Sir Richard Dearlove assess Russia's latest gray-zone provocations — from fighter jets entering Estonian airspace to swarms of drones over Poland. What do these incursions reveal about NATO's readiness, Europe's vulnerabilities, and Russian President Vladimir Putin's strategy? And with One Decision heading to the Warsaw Security Forum, these questions will be put directly to Europe's leaders. Plus: inside MI6's new dark-web recruitment portal, and how British intelligence is adapting to the digital age. Episode produced by Situation Room Studios.

Scorpia isn't just another Alex Rider adventure, it's the book where everything shifts. Darker, grittier, and more morally complex, this is where Alex discovers the terrifying legacy of his father, the manipulative power of Scorpia, and the harsh truth that both MI6 and his enemies will use him as a pawn.In this review, I explore how Scorpia raises the stakes, the deeper philosophical undertones about identity and manipulation, and why this is the turning point that makes the Alex Rider series unputdownable.(00:00) – Welcome & Introduction(00:23) – Recap of Alex Rider so far(01:04) – Why Scorpia raises the stakes(01:28) – Alex's family secrets and Scorpia's manipulation(02:14) – The recurring theme: Alex always gets played(02:55) – Darker tone & injuries at the end(03:17) – Philosophical takeaway: truth isn't always freedom(03:55) – Alex's identity crisis: good or evil?(04:15) – The chilling moment: Alex nearly assassinates Mrs Jones(05:09) – Training with Scorpia & struggle to become a killer(05:29) – The danger of stories that manipulate(06:24) – Reflections on identity & making your own story(06:59) – Why Scorpia is so fun to read at any age(07:37) – The 2004 setting & outdated tech references(07:55) – Final thoughts: the darker turn of the seriesConnect with Mere Mortals:Website: https://www.meremortalspodcast.com/Discord: https://discord.gg/jjfq9eGReUTwitter/X: https://twitter.com/meremortalspodsInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/meremortalspodcasts/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@meremortalspodcast Connect with Mere Mortals:Website: https://www.meremortalspodcasts.com/Discord: https://discord.gg/jjfq9eGReUTwitter/X: https://twitter.com/meremortalspodsInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/meremortalspodcasts/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@meremortalspodcastsValue 4 Value Support:Boostagram: https://www.meremortalspodcasts.com/supportPaypal: https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/meremortalspodcast

Als de nachten langer worden, de bladeren van de bomen vallen en het nog vaker regent dan normaal, betekent dat in het Verenigd Koninkrijk maar een ding: Het seizoen van de jaarlijkse partijcongressen is weer begonnen. Deze week is het de beurt aan de LibDems die met hun vorig jaar behaalde 72 kamerzetels, de komende dagen pakkende strategieën moeten bedenken om hun populariteit te vergroten. En dan blikken we natuurlijk terug op het staatsbezoek van Donald Trump. Nadat koning Charles hem heeft uitgezwaaid speculeren de Britten er op los wat het bezoek van de Amerikaanse president en zijn wederhelft het Verenigd Koninkrijk op economisch vlak heeft opgeleverd. Ook in deze aflevering Hoe komt een land aan zijn spionnen? Waar haalt het Verenigd Koninkrijk zijn James en Jane Bond vandaan? De Britse buitenlandse inlichtingendienst MI6 zoekt zijn medewerkers vaak binnen de diplomatieke dienst of andere takken van de ambtenarij waar veel potentiële werknemers rondlopen met opleidingen in internationale betrekkingen. Het maakt je zoekgebied vrij beperkt, zo merkte MI6. En dus zijn ze begonnen met het werven van nieuwe -en een ander slag- mensen via YouTube en Instagram. Over Van Bekhovens Britten In van Bekhovens Britten praten Lia van Bekhoven en Connor Clerx elke week over de grootste nieuwsonderwerpen en de belangrijkste ontwikkelingen in het Verenigd Koninkrijk. Van Brexit naar binnenlandse politiek, van de Royals tot de tabloids. Waarom fascineert het VK Nederlanders meer dan zo veel andere Europese landen? Welke rol speelt het vooralsnog Verenigd Koninkrijk in Europa, nu het woord Brexit uit het Britse leven lijkt verbannen, maar de gevolgen van de beslissing om uit de EU te stappen iedere dag duidelijker worden? De Britse monarchie, en daarmee de staat, staat voor grote veranderingen na de dood van Queen Elisabeth en de kroning van haar zoon Charles. De populariteit van het Koningshuis staat op een dieptepunt. Hoe verandert de Britse monarchie onder koning Charles, en welke gevolgen heeft dat voor de Gemenebest? In Van Bekhovens Britten analyseren Lia en Connor een Koninkrijk met tanende welvaart, invloed en macht. De Conservatieve Partij leverde veertien jaar op rij de premier, maar nu heeft Labour onder Keir Starmer de teugels in handen. Hoe ziet het VK er onder Keir Starmer uit? En hoe gaan de ‘gewone’ Britten, voor zover die bestaan, daar mee om? Al deze vragen en meer komen aan bod in Van Bekhovens Britten. Een kritische blik op het Verenigd Koninkrijk, waar het een race tussen Noord-Ierland en Schotland lijkt te worden wie zich het eerst af kan scheiden van het VK. Hoe lang blijft het Koninkrijk verenigd? Na ruim 45 jaar onder de Britten heeft Lia van Bekhoven een unieke kijk op het Verenigd Koninkrijk. Als inwoner, maar zeker geen anglofiel, heeft ze een scherpe blik op het nieuws, de politiek, de monarchie en het dagelijkse leven aan de overkant van de Noordzee. Elke woensdag krijg je een nieuwe podcast over het leven van Van Bekhovens Britten in je podcastapp. Scherpe analyses, diepgang waar op de radio geen tijd voor is en een flinke portie humor.

With his performance in The Smash Machine is this The Rock's big push for an Oscar? Why on earth has MI6 joined Instagram? Who deserves the credit for Warner Brothers' sudden box office hot streak? Dwayne ‘The Rock' Johnson has bulldozed his way from WWE to Hollywood megastar. But with The Smash Machine, an A24 production, is he finally angling for Academy recognition, or is this just another blockbuster in disguise? MI6 is now on Instagram. James Bond may have Q, but does British intelligence really need Reels? Is this about public trust, recruitment… or just trying to look cool online? At Warner Brothers, Pamela Abdy and Michael De Luca were on the chopping block but after a patient strategy and a bold slate of films, they suddenly look like the studio's saviours. What does this say about Hollywood risk-taking, storytelling, and the lost art of playing the long game?

In this episode of One Decision In Brief, hosts Christina Ruffini and Sir Richard Dearlove, former head of Britain's MI6, unpack how the latest strike on Ukraine indicates Vladimir Putin's resistance to President Donald Trump's peace negotiations. They also examine how the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) summit - where Chinese President Xi Jinping convened global leaders, including India's Narendra Modi, North Korea's Kim Jong-Un, and Russia's Vladimir Putin - hints at a possible new global order that competes with the West. Plus, how the recent U.S. hit on an alleged Venezuelan drug cartel ship implies how Secretary of State Marco Rubio's influence is shaping foreign policy in the Oval Office. Episode produced by Situation Room Studios. Original music composed and produced by Leo Sidran.

Send me a DM here (it doesn't let me respond), OR email me: imagineabetterworld2020@gmail.comToday I'm honored to have on the show: Ritual abuse, organized abuse, and governmental mind control survivor, whistleblower and overcomer, published writer and author, podcaster, rapper, R&B singer and songwriter, artist, content creator, and a guest many of you who have been paying attention to the survivor movement over the years will be just as excited to hear from as I am: James Casbolt aka: Michael PrinceBorn into a lineage steeped in British intelligence, James was ensnared in a world of espionage and manipulation from childhood. He was subjected to the CIA's notorious MK ULTRA program, where his abuse began at a secretive facility in Nelson, British Columbia, known as Base 9 where children, including himself, were abducted and conditioned under Project IBIS, a program tied to the creation of manufactured “super soldiers.”At the heart of his story lies the Dulce Base, an underground military complex in New Mexico that has been testified on this channel before, shrouded in conspiracy and whispered to house unthinkable experiments involving advanced technology and extraterrestrial entities. James witnessed and endured unimaginable horrors there, including trauma-based mind control programming designed to forge emotionless operatives capable of executing covert missions without hesitation. He speaks of being trained as an assassin, tasked with eliminating threats to the shadowy agendas of global intelligence networks, including a mission to neutralize a rogue super soldier who had stolen a nuclear device.Yet, James's story is not one of defeat but of defiance. Despite the psychological chains of mind control programs designed to isolate him and enforce compliance, he broke free from the mental prison imposed upon him. His awakening began as he pieced together fragmented memories, connecting the dots between his experiences and the global workings of intelligence agencies like MI6, the NSA, and the CIA, which he testifies operated a vast drug trafficking network to fund black operations. His book, MI6: Agent Buried Alive, lays bare these allegations, offering a raw, unfiltered glimpse into a world where power, secrecy, and betrayal intertwine.What makes James's journey so compelling is not just the horrors of his abuse and his incredible testimony - including reptilian entities, underground bases, and mind-controlled assassins - but the unbreakable human spirit that shines through. He transformed from a pawn in a covert game to a beacon of resistance, risking everything to expose a web of control threatening humanity's freedom. His story challenges us to question the unseen forces shaping our world and to find the strength to stand against oppression, no matter the odds.CONNECT WITH JAMES: YouTube for Music:​⁠ https://www.youtube.com/@JamesCasboltKomanderYouTube for Vlogs & Updates: https://www.youtube.com/@rebelnottakenPurchase Album & Swag: https://www.rebelnottaken.co.uk/shop?fbclid=PAQ0xDSwMhX8tleHRuA2FlbQIxMAABp7YVRJZ95HJ4fZv4bnNB-XR8lwPK4-U9UDzOkv6XCK5Edmm-lXtYlQ2s1N3B_aem_NaKNqnjQXpAI7Jzr6x22CgIG: https://www.instagram.com/komander.official/CONNECT WITH THE IMAGINATION:EMAIL: imagineabetterworld2020@gmail.comMy Substack: https://emmakatherine.substack.Support the show

Flags are flying across Britain—but behind the bunting lurks a far-right campaign. Chris and Matt kick off Season 10 with a look at "Operation Raise the Colours," the extremist-led push to turn patriotism into intimidation. From there, they move to Ukraine, where the US has signaled willingness to offer critical support to a potential European-led peacekeeping force, even as Trump hedges on a deal with Moscow. Next, Tulsi Gabbard ignites turmoil at the top of the intelligence community, revoking dozens of clearances—including an undercover CIA officer's—raising fears of politicization and damage to US alliances. Finally, the guys head to New Zealand, where a soldier's espionage case exposes ties to far-right groups and highlights how extremists exploit culture wars from both sides.

Show Notes Episode 504: We Will Always Have Paris This week Host Dave Bledsoe gate crashed a celebrity event by carrying a camera and claiming he was “with the media” just to get access to the open bar. (The only photo taken was his mugshot. Again.) On the show this week we pick up with Chuck and Diane after their fairy tale wedding and following it to its tragic conclusion of Chuck wishing he were a tampon. Along the way we discover why Dave never had any children. (He doesn't like them and women don't like him.) Then we dive right into why Chuck chose the crown over love because of his great uncle Eddie. From there we learn how neither of our two love birds really tried all THAT hard to make it work. (A lot easier to have affairs.) We see their marriage through to the bitter end and then we discuss Diana's bitter end in a Paris tunnel.  Do we talk about how the Queen and MI6 are responsible? Of COURSE we do! Our Sponsor this week is The Firm, you can check out any time you like but only WE say when you can leave.  We open the show with new coverage of the fateful night that broke the world's heart and close with Alexander Mills with some traffic safety tips.

This week on The Roseanne Barr Podcast, Roseanne sits down with Bishop Larry Gaiters—one of the boldest truth-tellers on the planet. Together, they peel back the curtain on Jeffrey Epstein's global blackmail machine, the Royal Family's hidden ties, and the intelligence networks—MI6, Mossad, and beyond—that kept the whole operation running in the shadows. Bishop Gaiters doesn't hold back, connecting the dots between power, perversion, and politics, while Roseanne brings her trademark fire to a conversation the mainstream will never touch. From palaces to deep-state agencies, nothing is off-limits in this explosive exchange.

He was a KGB colonel. A double agent. And the most valuable spy Britain ever had. Born into a world of secrets & silence in Moscow Oleg Gordievsky's journey takes us from the waning days of Stalin to his disillusionment with the Soviet system and his defection to MI6. He lived a secret life at the heart of Soviet intelligence — all while feeding classified information to London. From within the KGB's London station, he exposed espionage operations, influenced diplomacy at the highest level, and warned of dangerous Soviet paranoia at the height of nuclear tensions. When discovery loomed, Britain launched one of the most daring escapes in espionage history. This is the astonishing true story of betrayal, conscience, and survival in the darkest shadows of the Cold War.

Eighty years on from Victory over Japan day in 1945, the contribution of British and Commonwealth soldiers in a brutal battle against the Imperial Japanese armed forces is often overlooked. The fact that the dropping of two atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki saved the lives of many in prisoner of war camps is even less discussed. Featuring voicenotes from readers whose family fought in Asia and the Pacific, Venetia and Roland dive into this tangled history and reflect on the legacy they have left behind. Plus, The Telegraph's Gareth Corfield gives the inside scoop on the story behind the biggest British data leak in history - the Ministry of Defence's Afghan list - and how Iran is using it to hunt for MI6 spies.

I wonder what they're going to talk about way up North? There will be serious issues covered. What a shame she can't go. The historic meeting has lots of wrinkles. Fun gathering in a safe satellite geometry. Also a lack of undersea cables. The aliens in DC look like black people. That is a The great op. Frankincense and Myrrh offers a sleeping breath. Special blankets from grandma. DOGE is a target again. The Hatch Act will be involved. What they are saying is new, is definitely not. Shutting down unwanted narratives. How are you productive to society? The President will tell us everything. Nobody else is any good. We need a third option. If you are there to solve a problem, you think about humanity. The face skin that has never looked so good. A newly neutralized Turkey will be a topic in Alaska. Let's pretend the aliens show up. What would they look like? Staying silent on the reactive events. Don't fly Alaska Airlines. MI6 is doing a lot of shit right now. it's going to be a fun 911 this year. It's all happening right now. Critical thinking by people who share frog memes. Watch cringe story reels for a fun evening. True Journalism means being unbounded. It's principal first, and then you must add the large doses of perseverance.

Today, we're looking ahead to Friday's meeting in Alaska between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin, as Trump hints at a potential land swap to end the war in Ukraine.

Cinematographer Christopher Ross, BSC, has earned an Emmy nomination for the show's first episode. He collaborated with director Brian Kirk to craft the series' distinctive visual language. Chris and Kirk wanted to transform the 1970s source material into a contemporary, slick thriller centered on deception. To visually convey this subjective reality, Chris used a range of cinematic techniques, including lens aberrations, smoke filters, and a blend of precise and unpredictable camera movement. "If you know how you want your audience to feel, then you can reverse engineer the imagery to force that emotion," Chris says. His approach leans toward a more chaotic and naturalistic style rather than a traditionally elevated, polished look. A central challenge was to make the audience feel connected to both the Jackal and Bianca, a narrative where the roles of "cat" and "mouse" constantly shift. Chris explains, “How do we make a modern slick thriller with a dual protagonist, a cat and mouse drama where the cat and the mouse change places? We wanted the imagery to be playful and light-footed, like a magic trick, and to not necessarily be instantly decipherable.” Chris drew inspiration from 1970s thrillers such as Klute, The Parallax View, and Three Days of the Condor to inform the show's visual style. ARRI ALPHA anamorphic lenses created a wide frame for a strong sense of connection with the characters. He customized the lenses to produce an exaggerated square bokeh around the frame. It symbolized the compartmentalization within the characters' lives, reinforcing the theme of hidden realities. The Emmy-nominated first episode features a complex, two-minute opening shot—or "oner"—that required extensive preparation. Chris and Kirk meticulously planned the scene to capture all the essential details as the camera follows the Jackal through an apartment. During the shoot, the production team performed a synchronized dance of moving doors and walls, all timed with Redmayne's performance.“It was one of the best, most interesting oners that I've ever been fortunate enough to construct with a director,” says Chris. “The frame changes so often, the storytelling is as frequent as if you were editing.” Christopher Ross, BSC is also the President of the British Society of Cinematographers, an organization that promotes the art and craft of cinematography in the UK and internationally.
