'Sergei & The Westminster Spy Ring', Episode 4 Out Now
Follow Conservative whistleblower Sergei Cristo, Orwell Prize-winning journalist Carole Cadwalladr and co-founder of Byline Times Peter Jukes, as they uncover an alleged Russian spy operation that penetrated the heart of Westminster.
It’s now 2013 and a new organisation has risen from the ashes of the disgraced Conservative Friends of Russia - the Westminster Russia Forum. This time the launch is on the House of Commons riverside terrace.
Russia Today is booming, experimenting with new ways to reach new audiences through packaging up content for online viral hits. Its tagline is question everything. Marina Litvinenko is dismayed when the government rejects her call for a public inquiry into her husband’s fatal poisoning. And in Ukraine, there’s an uprising in Kyiv - the Maidan - a fight to defend a pro-EU, pro-Western future. Months later Russia invades Crimea.
Meanwhile, the chatty Russian diplomat who first met Sergei at the Carlton club is socialising across the capital. Has anyone paid any attention to the warnings of Sergei Cristo?
