- Season 1

(2021)

Swinging sixties London as you've never seen it. A young Jewish woman is drawn into a world of deceit and lies in a high stakes fight against the far right.

Vivien wins the trust of Colin Jordan and infiltrates the National Socialist Movement. She finds out what has happened to Jack, but the stakes are raised when she discovers a paramilitary organization is in training at the stately home of a fascist duke. Seeing the opportunity to gain evidence of illegal activities, the 62 Group set her a far more dangerous mission of planting a transmitter.

An unexpected arrival complicates Vivien's plan to exploit Colin Jordan's growing affection for her. Soly tries to convince the police of the threat to the Jewish community posed by the NSM, but when he is unsuccessful, the 62 Group are forced to take matters into their own hands - but new desperate measures leave Vivien and Jack struggling to both maintain their cover and prevent further loss of life.

Vivien wakes up in Colin Jordan's bedroom to see a suitcase containing documents detailing his illegal private army. If she can get it out, she can send him down. However, several NSM foot soldiers have become suspicious of Jack following Lee's beating. When they ask questions, he and Vivien narrowly avoid being exposed. In private, Jack tells Vivien there is too much heat and they need to run. Vivien refuses, telling him she's going back in to finish the job - with or without him.
