Central Intelligence: Series 3: Episode 4

1965. Richard Helms is the obvious choice to lead the CIA. Experienced, respected and trusted inside the Agency, he appears to be next in line. LBJ has other ideas and instead appoints Admiral William “Red” Raborn — a fellow Texan with almost no intelligence experience. On his first day, a coup erupts in the Dominican Republic, and Raborn is thrown into a crisis he barely understands. As LBJ demands answers and Washington rushes towards military intervention, Eloise Page watches the Agency struggle under a director out of his depth. Starring Kim Cattrall, Kelsey Grammer and Johnny Flynn.

Central Intelligence: Series 3: Episode 3

1964. At the Pentagon, America’s future in Vietnam is played out in two rooms. The war game is meant to test whether bombing North Vietnam can force a communist retreat. But the simulation points to a devastating conclusion - whatever America does, the North will keep fighting, the Viet Cong will keep being supplied, and the war cannot be won on Washington’s terms. The CIA sees the warning clearly. John McCone tries to make LBJ listen. But the hawks in the administration dismiss the game as theory — and when the Gulf of Tonkin gives them the trigger they need, America steps towards a war the Agency already knows is doomed. Starring Kim Cattrall, Kelsey Grammer and Johnny Flynn.

Central Intelligence: Series 3: Episode 2

1964. As British Guiana edges towards independence, Washington fears another communist foothold in the Americas. But the President’s attention is soon caught by a more immediate irritation: Harold Wilson’s new Labour government is pressing ahead with a lucrative export deal to Castro’s Cuba. To London, it is just business. To LBJ, it looks like betrayal. And as the CIA tries to keep one eye on British Guiana, the White House becomes consumed by a row over buses, allies, trade, and what loyalty means in the Cold War. Starring Kim Cattrall, Kelsey Grammer, Johnny Flynn and Jason Watkins.

Central Intelligence: Series 3: Episode 1

1964. Chile is preparing to vote — and Washington is watching nervously. With the memory of Cuba still raw, LBJ fears another communist foothold in the Americas. Inside Langley, the CIA is told to help deliver the right result before the ballot box produces the wrong one. For Eloise Page, Richard Helms and John McCone, that means money, media, pressure, persuasion — and the fine art of interference without fingerprints. The Agency faces its first major test under President LBJ: how far do you go to protect democracy from itself? Eloise Page..........Kim Cattrall Lyndon Baines Johnson..........Kelsey Grammer Richard Helms..........Johnny Flynn Young Eloise Page..........Elena Delia Desmond Fitzgerald..........Donald Sage Mackay John McCone..........Tim Ahern Helene Boatner..........Carlyss Peer Virginia Hall..........Jennifer Armour Henry Hecksher..........David Menkin Charlie Michaels..........Christopher Ragland Augustin ‘Gus’ Edwards..........Joseph Balderrama Tom Karamessines ..........Akie Kotabe Gerri Whittington..........Nettie Chickering Judge Sarah T Hughes..........Laurel Lefkow Security Guard..........Tyreke Leslie All other parts played by cast Original music by Sacha Puttnam Production: Written by Greg Haddrick, who created the series with Jeremy Fox Sound Design and Editing by Adam Woodhams, Andreina Gomez Casanova and John Scott Dryden Assistant Director: Flynn Hallman Sonica Studio Sound Engineers: Mat Clark & Paul Clark Sonica Runner: Lily Lefkow Director: John Scott Dryden Producer & Casting Director: Emma Hearn Executive Producers: Howard Stringer, Jeremy Fox, Greg Haddrick and John Scott Dryden.

Central Intelligence: Series 3: Trailer

JFK is dead. LBJ is in the White House. And the CIA is about to be dragged into the defining battles of the 1960s. From Chile and British Guiana to Vietnam, the Dominican Republic, the Middle East and the Bolivian jungle, the Agency is fighting communism on every front. But as America turns against the war, the enemy begins to look closer to home. Presidents demand answers. Directors come and go. Richard Helms rises. Bill Colby emerges. Eloise Page watches the CIA embrace satellites, surveillance, covert war — and, in one extraordinary case, the services of a cat. A thrilling new season of the award-winning drama about America’s Central Intelligence Agency, told from the inside out. Starring Kim Cattrall, Kelsey Grammer, Johnny Flynn, Jason Watkins and David Duchovny.
