Finally, three documentaries on MI5 and Special Branch called ‘True Spies’ that were shown on BBC2 in 2002 are now available in their entirety on Youtube. Each of them is nearly one hour long. They are very interesting and in the first one the SDS is discussed and the theft of dead children’s identities is brought up, 10 years before the ‘revelations’ about it in the Guardian!
This three-part series was broadcast on BBC Two during October – November 2002.
True Spies #1 ‘Subversive My Arse!’ 27 October 2002
True Spies #2 ‘Something Better Change’ 3 November 2002
