Story
In the midst of an international crisis, Kate Wyler, a career diplomat, is thrust into a high-profile job she is ill-suited for, with tectonic implications for her marriage and her political future.

Britain allowed filming in the Foreign Secretary’s office, a rare honor for any film or film production, especially an American one.

Although it is accurately described as occupying the largest residential plot (11 acres) in London outside of Buckingham Palace, the producers used a country house outside the city for filming purposes.

It was so good that I devoured all 8 episodes and started screaming at the TV in frustration when the last one ended.
One of those rare gems where every character in the quality cast has a well-developed personality, where you can follow every plot twist, even the most complex one
This is original, smart and really, really well done.~~~~ That’s all I want to say, but I probably have to type 600 characters, which seems like a lot for this late at night, especially after 8 hours of wonderful TV when I really want to go to sleep.
