A made-for-British-TV spy thriller now showing on Comcast On-Demand, and soon on regular TV. It's a corker.
Bill Nighy plays an all around decent bloke working as an intelligence officer within MI5, who is shown a top secret report stating the Americans are imprisoning and torturing suspected terrorists. The fact that Nighy knows who in Government has known all along about the prisons and the torture, makes him a target from his own security services, and heaven knows who else.
He's no James Bond - he drives a Saab, lives alone in a Fulham apartment, meets his contacts at Little Chef - but this develops into a gripping drama worthy of 007.

The writer appeared to run out of cleaver ideas to end the story. The first two-thirds of the story kept me glued to the sofa. However, the ending was not worth staying awake for (considering it had great potential for the sequel).
