The Ipcress File
1962. At the height of the Cold War, ex-soldier and thief Harry Palmer (Joe Cole) is recruited to a British spy unit and sent by his boss (Tom Hollander) to retrieve a missing scientist. Aided by ambitious agent Jean (Lucy Boynton), Harry takes on a globetrotting mission to foil a political conspiracy. This “sexier take on a classic spy thriller” (Radio Times) is based on the book by Len Deighton.
