Spy Films On Netflix Or Prime.

Any recommendations? I'm looking for shows in the style of Smiley's People or A spy among friends rather than gadget laden James Bond offerings .

Treason is a new limited series on Netflix and is very very good

[sandyRoe]

Plenty to be going on with there.
Thank you both.

Having just watched Treason last night I'd have to disagree. I thought it started well enough then stretched credibility to breaking point.

I agree with Minty about The Serpent based on a true story.
And I also recommend The Spy with Sacha Baron Cohen playing a non comedy part for once . Set in the 60s it is about a clerk turned Secret agent who goes deep into Syria to spy for Mossad.
Also based on a true story I think. I thought it was excellent.

I agree with Rosie, it was very very good. Incredibly brave man.

A Spy Among Friends is currently on Itvx if you've got that.

[tiggerblue10]

Oops! Sorry, just realised you already mentioned this on your OP.

There is season 3 of Jack Ryan just available on Prime

[hellywelly4]

Thank you for the info about Jack Ryan. I don’t know if this is the sort of thing you like but I loved 3 days of the Condor and All the President’s Men, both starring Robert Redford.

just watched TREASON Netflix 5 parts ! very good

As a supplement to the Jack Ryan season 3, gosh it seems complicated, if anyone gives it a go and is not used to these series, starting at series one may well be useful for the characters
