The Wargame is a thrilling and timely constructed-documentary series. Across 4 gripping episodes, a group of real-world politicians, intelligence and military experts confront an escalating scenario set 9 months in the future: a Russian attack on UK soil.
“The Wargame is as essential viewing as television gets: a genuinely remarkable cast and brilliant, unsettling insight into what would really happen should the UK suddenly find itself under attack… Watching [Michael Gove] lead a cabinet into war is one of the most fascinating moments in reality television I’ve seen.”
