The Night Manager
Well executed adaptation of the John le Carre thriller, about a man (Tom Hiddleston) who goes undercover to infiltrate the operation of a wealthy arms dealer (Hugh Laurie).
It's funny how John le Carre is always described as the anti-Bond writer, while in this story we have a guy who works for the British Intelligence, flies all over the world, sips a lot of champagne, and sleeps with multiple beautiful women..
Now The Night Manager is still more realistic than your average Bond film, but it's certainly no Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy..
It's very enjoyable series though, overall. Maybe the adaptation cut some corners, I haven't read the book (obviously haha).
