Officials at The Ministry are given secrets to a frumpy, chain smoking cleaner, Martha Roberts.
I really did enjoy this episode, something of a classic in my opinion, it's well imagined, well paced, and full of intrigue and suspense.
I won't give anything away, but the transformation when it comes, is quite a startling one.
The production itself is rather excellent, it has the look and feel of an espionage thriller, it looks terrific, and the music is totally on point. The whole thing feels incredibly well made, it's an immaculate fifty minutes of drama.
Three performances stood out for me in particular, Terrence Alexander, Patsy Rowlands and of course Veronica Strong, the latter really does deliver a knockout showing as Martha.
Thought very highly of this one, 9/10.
