Trivia
(2019) Eli Cohen's daughter Sofia Ben-Dor (59), a psychologist, has said that she and her mother Nadia were particularly upset at the way Eli was portrayed as a ladies' man who hosted sex parties for Syria's top brass, affirming that he was not a womanizer, but a very modest and conservative man in the way he conducted his day-to-day life.

The series is set in the early 1960s, but on the map shown in the title sequence, the borders of Israel encompass East Jerusalem and the West Bank. These territories were occupied by Jordan at the time; they were not administered by Israel until their capture in the 1967 Six-Day War. See more »Frequently Asked Questions

Great espionage 6-piece despite how frustrating both sides of the lake have been over the years. Cohen has finally landed a role that suits him to the dot, pity he wasn't cast for Freddy Mercury, I suppose his age was a serious factor. The series has very tense scenes at times, some tolerable melodrama here and there, overall a must watch if you are not easily insulted by the ongoing conflict from either side of the border.
