A Spy Among Friends (Season 1)

A Spy Among Friends (2022) is a British espionage drama you can watch online on iFILM. It draws on the true story of Kim Philby, the MI6 officer who spent years secretly feeding Britain's secrets to Moscow, and his long friendship with fellow intelligence man Nicholas Elliott.

Once Philby is exposed, it falls to Elliott to coax a confession out of the man he trusted most — a face-to-face conversation in which every sentence can cost a career, a reputation, or a life. Guy Pearce plays Philby as charming and unreadable; Damian Lewis plays Elliott as the friend left holding the betrayal. Anna Maxwell Martin brings a sharp third angle as an investigator who trusts none of these old-school gentlemen. The story slips between postwar London, Beirut and the interrogation room.

Directed by Nick Murphy and adapted from Ben Macintyre's book, it cares less about chases than about how treachery grows inside friendship and a closed world of spies. Slow, talky, built on a two-hander between its leads. A natural pick for anyone who loved Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy. Stream A Spy Among Friends (2022) online on iFILM.
