Ep 2. The Diplomat - The Complete Miniseries -Part 2

The players are the secret services and a terrorist cell intent on killing hundreds of thousands with a nuclear bomb. As international tensions are raised and nuclear Armageddon looms, one man's loyalties will be questioned and pushed to the limit. When a massive amount of heroin is found in a container allegedly sealed by British diplomat Ian Porter, Scotland Yard is drawn into the conspiratorial world of espionage and counter-terrorism. Commander Julie Hales discovers, under interrogation, that Porter has become dangerously close to Krousov, a notorious heroin trafficker. Seeing an opportunity to finally bring him in, they offer Porter immunity in exchange for his testimony against Krousov. That means dispatching Porter and his ex-wife, Pippa, abroad to the relative safety of witness protection. But when the witness protection scheme is compromised by an unexpected attempt on Porter's life, a suspicious Hales decides to investigate. The strange behavior of both Porter and superiors at MI6 lead to only one conclusion: Porter is not simply a British ambassador, but an MI6 operative sent undercover to expose Krousov's terrorist contacts. Then, Hales discovers that a nuclear bomb previously belonging to the Soviet Union is missing and in the hands of the enemy. Now, with time running out, a life-and-death race is on to uncover Porter's true involvement in a global conspiracy, and prevent a nuclear annihilation--with or without the help of M16. Nothing and no one is as it seems in The Diplomat, a fast and furious miniseries that will keep you guessing until the final, explosive betrayal.
