And if that tickles your fancy, "Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy" [0] is an excellent miniseries from 1979 about a mole in MI6, perhaps the best spy series ever made. I didn't care about the movie much, so don't let this deter you, but Alec Guiness as George Smiley is a perfect match. John Le Carré thought so, too.
Oh and Patrick Steward plays "Karla" the soviet mastermind in this series and its successor "Smiley's People". Just a few seconds, but very memorable, its incredible really.
Wholeheartedly second that. Both series are amazing.
"Smiley's People" remains one of my favorite shows.
If you track it down, I highly recommend watching it with headphones. The sound design is amazing.
The sound of an empty room being profoundly menacing.
