If you're a fan of Spooks and brit spy shows ... try and download a show called "The State Within" from UKNova.Com.

Good stuff!

Thanks for the tip, I watched the first episode yesterday, it was great! The pace is really fast, sort of "blink and you'll miss it"...
It's shot like NYPD Blues, with a lot of shoulder camera, so you have to make the effort to watch it on a tv and not directly on the laptop, to get the full effect...

Love how they do the american accents and portray the secretary of defense as being out of control. Talk about playing on the stereotypes.. glad the BBC is not above it all.

One of the better BBC shows this year.

Also really enjoyed seeing some american actors trying to pull off an english accent! Like the guy who plays Hawkins on Jericho and who plays a Falklands vet on death row...
However good the actor is, they just can't seem to be able to make an english accent work...it just always reminds me of Dick Van Dyke in Mary Poppins!

I must say that it is getting a bit too confusing now ... who is the real baddie?
