The only unavailable location was Winfield House, the current residence of the US ambassador
Line of Events
In the midst of an international crisis, career diplomat Kate Wyler finds herself thrust into a high-profile job she’s not meant to be, with tectonic implications for her marriage and political future. The British government allowed them to use real-world locations as filming locations for the series, including the brand-new US Embassy (in Nine Elms) which opened in 2018. Britain allowed filming inside the Foreign Secretary’s office, a privilege rarely granted to any film or motion picture production, especially an American one.
I loved every second of it
Although it’s accurately described as occupying the largest residential plot (11 acres) in London outside of Buckingham Palace, the producers used a country house outside the city for filming purposes. Featured in the 75th Primetime Emmy Awards (2024). I watched The Night Agent on repeat, I thought it couldn’t get any better than this, I was wrong.
So cerebral and fascinating
Everything you could want in a show. The characters and acting were first class. It was so great to see the delightful Rufus Sewell again, and what a role he played, never knowing what he was going to do next.
I played her perfectly
Keri Russell was simply magnificent as the ambassador. I also loved David Gyasi. All in all, a great show, a little short maybe, but worth watching.
The best political show since The West Wing
Excellent!
