First broadcast: on BBC Four HDLatest broadcast: on BBC Four

Available for 10 months

Seven years undercover, three to go… The Mole and Mr James have made it out of Pyongyang with a signed contract to build a secret underground factory where they can manufacture weapons and drugs. They are tasked with finding a location in a ‘friendly’ country where they can carry out their covert plans, and so fly to Uganda to inspect a private island for sale. The North Koreans join them and return to Pyongyang to draw up a blueprint.

President of the Korean Friendship Association, Alejandro Cao de Benos, comes up with a cunning plan to evade the tightening UN sanctions, involving the North Koreans, Mr James and a new player - a Jordanian businessman. As the mission progresses, numerous deals are offered to Mr James, taking him deeper into the dark side of the regime’s arms trade. With deals done and orders pending, can they keep up the deception?
