By Katie Hims, adapted from the novel by Kate Atkinson. It's 1950. Juliet Armstrong is desperate to find who left her a threatening note, and which of her wartime crimes - when she worked for MI5 - is being avenged. Now a producer in BBC Schools, it's clear she hasn't fully moved on from her work with the intelligence services. Kate Atkinson's book is a witty and exciting blend of politics, espionage and personal identity, alternating between Juliet's wartime experiences and her post-war life in the corridors of Broadcasting House.
