Episode 2: A Party at the Embassy

Sergei Cristo starts making enquiries into the mysterious new diplomat whose conversation over tea at the Carlton club has raised red flags. And what his friends, Marina Litvinenko and Oleg Gordievesky, tell him only increases his anxiety. Meanwhile, a new organisation launches - Conservative Friends of Russia - at the gardens of the Russian Embassy in London, just days after members of Pussy Riot are imprisoned in Moscow.A Project Citizen & The Citizens production.To find out more about the story and issues it raises visit www.the-citizens.comPresented by: Carole Cadwalladr and Peter JukesWritten by: Carole Cadwalladr and Peter Jukes with Ruth AbrahamsProducer and Sound Design: Ruth AbrahamsStudio Producer: Sean Byrne RobertsLocation Producers: Sheridan Flynn and Manasa Narayanan Original Music: Phil ChannellMixed: Nigel Appleton Hosted on Acast.
