Salisburyn myrkytykset (2020)
In March 2018, the eyes of the world turned to the British city of Salisbury when it became the epicenter of what has been described as one of the biggest political events of the 21st century -- but until now, the heroic acts behind the headlines have not been told. Within three days of the assassination attempt on double agent and spy Sergei Skripal and his daughter Yulia, key agencies discovered that a lethal nerve agent called Novichok was used, just half a teaspoon of which could kill 20,000 people. Within four days, hundreds of traces were found across the city, and, just when things were finally thought to be under control, a perfume bottle containing the nerve agent was discovered, throwing the investigation into renewed chaos.

    Storyline

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Features some real-life footage of events that occurred in Salisbury at the time, but not all city scenes were filmed in Salisbury
    • Crazy credits
      In the closing credits, the names of cast and crew (but not the corresponding character names or job titles) were all shown in inverse video: black text on rectangular white backgrounds.
    • Alternate versions
      Upon its initial airing on BBC One, the series was presented in three hour-long episodes. In every other territory, it was re-edited into four 45 minute-long episodes. Thus the 1st episode of the four part version covers events of the 1st episode of the BBC version, the 2nd covers the rest of the 1st BBC with some of the 2nd, the 3rd the rest of the 2nd BBC with some of the 3rd and the 4th the rest of the 3rd BBC.

    Nice to see the human side of the headlines
    It's obvious that the negative comments are coming from certain factions as they're not interested in hearing the human story behind the headlines and only want to debunk the truth. It's not perfect by any means but gives a very good interpretation of the multi agency approach and the difficulties that they had in dealing with this diabolical encroachment on British soil and continue to play their Cold War games not only in the UK but also in Europe. We need to keep telling these stories and expose the threats to our everyday lives by these criminal acts.
