A complete collection of acclaimed BBC Radio dramas based on John le Carre's bestselling novels, starring Simon Russell Beale as George Smiley.

Magnus Pym, Counsellor at the British Embassy, is hosting a dinner party at his home in Vienna when he receives an unexpected telephone call that will profoundly affect his life. Once the guests have gone, Pym breaks the news to his wife, Mary: his father, Rick, is dead. In a state of shock, he says something Mary cannot understand - 'After all these years, I'm free.' Magnus flies back to England to attend the funeral - and doesn't return. As Mary and MI6 spymaster Jack Brotherhood desperately try to find out his whereabouts, it soon becomes clear that Pym has been keeping secrets from both his family and his employers, the British Intelligence Service. Hiding out in a remote cottage in Devon, where he goes by the name of Mr Canterbury, Magnus begins to write his memoirs - retracing his rise and fall and revealing how Rick led him step by step into a double life of deception, broken promises and betrayal... This recording, adapted from the John le Carre novel by Rene Basilico, was believed lost from the BBC archive, but was rediscovered after almost twenty years and restored.

It is the third summer of perestroika. Barley Blair, London publisher, receives a smuggled document from Moscow.

Katya, the Moscow intermediary, is beautiful, thoughtful, equally sceptical of all state ideology.Together, as the safe clichés of hostility disintegrate, they may represent the future ¿ an idea that is anathema to the entrenched espionage professionals on both sides.
