The one unavailable location was Winfield House, the American ambassador's actual residence

Line of Events

In the midst of an international crisis, Kate Wyler, a career diplomat, lands in a high-profile job for which she is not suited, with tectonic implications for her marriage and her political future.. The producers convinced both the American & British governments to let them use real-life settings as filming locations for the series, including the still-recent American embassy (at Nine Elms) that opened in 2018. Britain allowed filming inside the foreign secretary's office, a rarely bestowed honour for any film or screen production, especially an American one.

Featured in The 75th Primetime Emmy Awards (2024)

Although it's accurately described as occupying the largest plot of residential land (11 acres) in London aside from Buckingham Palace, the producers used a country house outside the city for filming purposes.. I binge watched The Night Agent, thought it couldn't get much better than that, I was wrong. I loved every second of this series.

So cerebral and fascinating

Everything you could wish for in a series. The characters and acting were first class. It was so great to see the delicious Rufus Sewell again, and what a part he played, never knowing what he will get up to next.

Played it to perfection

Keri Russell was just magnificent as the ambassador. I also loved David Gyasi. All in all a wonderful series, a little short maybe, but well worth watching.

The best political show since The West Wing

Excellent!
