The first scene my character Sullivan, an MI5 spy catcher, is introduced in Traitors. With Keeley Hawes & Emma Appleton. I spent a lot of time researching the role in this post WWII world, read a history of MI5 & watched as many films from the time as I could. Rosselini's War Trilogy was invaluable (Rome Open City, Paisan, Germany Year Zero). Marvellous writing by Bathesheba Doran, the show's creator.
