Comedian and history buff Al Murray is joined by former director of MI5 Dame Stella Rimington, political comedian Matt Forde and film expert Matthew Sweet for a fresh look at the great British spy movie. This round-table discussion looks at the films themselves - not to mention the spies that star in them - and uses them as a lens on the British people, our fear of the world and our changing views of espionage over the decades. As well as discussing the inevitable moral ambiguity, the limited female roles and general distrust of the intelligence community, we also find out what Dame Stella Rimington, the real M, actually thinks about James Bond, what you really say at a party when someone inevitably asks what you do, the spy gadget she'd really like to get her hands on, and the film that was genuinely used as a training movie when she first joined the service.

Spy Wars takes a groundbreaking look into the world of high-tech espionage. For the first time former Israeli & American spies explore the technology and tactics behind one of the greatest murder mysteries: who killed Gerald Bull? In March of 1990, on the eve of the Gulf War, Saddam Hussein's top weapons scientist, Gerald Bull, was hard at work on a secret supergun when he was assassinated in Belgium. The prime suspects were the world's premier spy agencies: Mossad, MI6 and the CIA – but the killer was never caught. Now, for the first time ever, former Israeli and American spies reconstruct the technology and tactics of the assassins in an attempt to solve a mystery that's lingered for 20 years.
