Codename: Kyril (1988)
The chairman of the KGB is hunting a spy who also happens to be a high-ranking Kremlin official who has been leaking secrets to the British. Bucharensky (codename Kyril) is ordered to defect to Britain in order to panic the traitor into making a mistake. Making his way across Europe to London, Kyril attracts the attention of the intelligence services of both East and West and becomes a target for both sides. Waiting in London is Kyril's deadliest enemy, Royston – a KGB mole whose life now depends upon silencing Kyril before he can disclose Royston's identity as a Soviet double agent.
This compelling Cold War spy mini-series was scripted by John Hopkins from a book by John Trenhaile.

Snapped
Who are these women and what drives them to kill? Oxygen's hit true crime series, Snapped, profiles fascinating cases of women accused of murder. Did they really do it? And if they did, why? Whether the motivation is revenge against a cheating husband, the promise of a hefty insurance payoff, or putting an end to years of abuse, the reasons are as varied as the women themselves. From socialites to secretaries, female killers share one thing in common: at some point, they all snapped. Each episode of Snapped chronicles the life of a woman who has been charged with murder. These shocking but true stories turn common assumptions about crime and criminals upside down, and prove that even the most unlikely suspects can be capable of murder.
