Bill Nighy reprises his role as MI5 spy Johnny Worricker in the second of David Hare’s Worricker trilogy, Turks and Caicos.

The drama has an all-star international cast including: Bill Nighy, Christopher Walken, Winona Ryder, Helena Bonham Carter, Ralph Fiennes, Ewen Bremner, James Naughton, Dylan Baker and Zach Grenier.

Turks & Caicos follows the first film of the trilogy Page Eight, which aired on BBC Two in August 2011 and starred Rachel Weisz, Ralph Fiennes, Judy Davis and Michael Gambon.

In the second film Johnny Worricker has walked out of his job at MI5, going to the airport apparently to choose his destination at random. But his presence on the obscure islands of Turks & Caicos brings him a new problem: he is being forced by the CIA to deal with a group of ambiguous Americans who are on the islands for a high-level conference on the world financial crisis. At the same time, an old girlfriend, Margot Tyrrell, is being asked to betray her boss in London in order to establish an illicit connection between the prime minister and dark goings-on in the war on terror.

The final instalment of the trilogy will be Salting The Battlefield. Starring alongside Bill Night is: Saskia Reeves, Judy Davis, Kate Burdette, Ralph Fiennes, Helena Bonham Carter, Ewen Bremner, Malcolm Sinclair.

  1. Can’t wait for this~ a stonking cast and the always compelling Bill Nighy. MI5/CIA ~Intrigue and passionate goings-on~ One to watch out for methinks…

    1. Definitely. Nice to see Winona Ryder acting in more (decent roles) again.
