Description: The past and present collide in this series steeped in history. Fourteen contestants go through the same rigorous four-day selection process that Britain's top-secret World War II spies endured.

The final six recruits face the Final Scheme, a 24-hour rehearsal mission that calls upon every skill the would-be spies have learned.
