Kim Philby: His Most Intimate Betrayal |
| Summary |
In this two part special, best-selling author Ben Macintyre explores Kim Philby, the most famous double agent in history. The key to Philby's success, and his survival, lay in his friendship with a man that history has been largely forgotten - Nicholas Elliott. Elliott was Philby's colleague in M16 who befriended him, defended him, and unwittingly supplied him with secrets, until he discovered the truth. Philby was a man of contradictions - charming and courteous, but also a fanatic and a ruthless killer, who deceived his colleagues not only in MI6 and MI5 but also in the CIA, most notably James Jesus Angleton |
