Two agents—and former lovers—must work together to combat international cyberattacks threatening the UK while also confronting the buried secrets of their destructive relationship.
Liaison is a rather predictable Western spy thriller. It adopts the simplistic formula of everyone opposed to the West being bad, whilst the West is painted as good and virtuous. Syria, is painted as the bad guys. This ignores inconvenient facts. For example, the Wests uninvited presence in Syria, being largely illegal, under international law. Moving beyond the propaganda, the story is your standard spy thriller fare, with a dollop of alarmist rhetoric about super hackers and how the authorities are there to keep everyone safe. Even when they are taking a dump, on your basic human rights. Off settings this nonsense, is a bland spy soap opera about two people and how their past mistakes impact on the present. Acting is of a high standard, it s just a shame they could not come up with an original story of the same calibre.
