Once again the BBC Drama Department shows how to bring a gripping novel to life.
Smiley’s People was a 1982 drama miniseries in six parts, made for the BBC. Directed by Simon Langton, produced by Jonathan Powell, it is the television adaptation of the 1979 spy novel of the same name by John le Carré.
Following on from the successful miniseries TINKER TAILOR SOLDIER SPY, John Le Carré’s master spy returns in the BAFTA Award-winning Smiley’s People. George Smiley (Oscar® winner Alec Guinness, Star Wars Episode IV) is called out of retirement when one of his contacts, a former Soviet General, is found murdered. Still working for the ‘Circus’, more commonly known as the Secret Intelligence Service, he discovers a clandestine operation run by his arch nemesis of the Russian Secret Service, Karla (Patrick Stewart, X-Men) uncovering a secret important enough to kill for. Featuring an ensemble cast including: Bernard Hepton (Gandhi), Beryl Reid (STAR!), Alan Rickman (the Harry Potter series), Siân Phillips (I, Claudius), Michael Lonsdale (The Day of the Jackal) and Bill Patterson (The Killing Fields), Smiley’s People is a gripping tale of intrigue and espionage in the finest Le Carré tradition.
