A Perfect Spy: 4

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

John Le Carre's story adapted in eight parts. Starring James Fox as Magnus Pym , James Grout as Jack Brotherhood and Brenda Bruce as Miss Dubber.

"If you ever need a bed for the night, don't forget Uncle Syd." That was Magnus Pym's advice to his son. Jack Brotherhood needs a very different kind of help from Syd Lemon.
