Tedious? No, if you truly love real spy games. For you this is a new classic. Think Tinker Taylor but the old, superb tv series. I do prefer a good story, so I watched the 6 parts non stop and already I am thinking of a second watch.
If you prefer a quicky, a tweet, a comic, there is always one of the Mission Impossible episodes in Netflix or one of Pink Panther's Inspector funny animated shorts in youtube. Thoroughly enjoyable they all are, I have watched them all, but this is different.
Based on Kim Philby and Nicholas Elliot real life, it is very well plotted, photographied like a classic (you really feel a 1960's London is there), acted, and scored. It's good, real good.
