True Spies: Subversive My Arse

on BBC Two England

The British security services have been spying on "subversives" for decades - from Arthur Scargill to actor and former militant trade unionist Ricky Tomlinson. In the first of a three-part series that features interviews with spies and the subjects of their scrutiny, reporter Peter Taylor asks whether MI5 and Special Branch were safeguarding Britain's democracy or infringing the liberties of its citizens.
