TV: "The Sandbaggers" -- best spy series ever (including "The Prisoner")

"...best damned show most people never saw...supremely entertaining and intelligent British TV series about...a ruthless, duplicitous, acid-tongued, lovelorn but often funny spy master...one of the most fascinating and complex antiheroes ever...inverts espionage genre conventions...no one has any flashy cars or gadgets or sexual liaisons..typical 50-minute episode consists of men and women having intelligent conversations and heated arguments...unflinching honesty, passionate acting, witty dialogue and shocking plot twists...You’ll probably like The Sandbaggers if you like John Le Carré’s spy novels, or anything acknowledging its audience’s intelligence." -- from the website. <http://www.opsroom.org/>
