BritBox UK has ordered a new, three-part original factual commission, Secrets of the Spies, from ITN Productions.

Secrets of the Spies “delves deep into a world of secrets and lies; from James Bond to Ian Fleming, Kim Philby to Sergei Skripal… the world of espionage is one of blurred lines where fact is often stranger than fiction; a world of murder, betrayal, romance and duty.”

The series will cover everything from Cold War defections and covert assassinations to sophisticated cyber attacks. It will investigate recent cases and current methods while exploring the history of espionage, both fact and fiction.

Secrets of the Spies will include interviews with former spies, and their family members, police officers and forensic experts, historians, authors and more.

The film is made by ITN Productions, which recently made Secrets of the Krays and Feel the Noise: The Music that Shaped Britain for BritBox UK. It will be Executive Produced by George Waldrum and Ian Rumsey.
