Yes, this is a picture of the British Ambassador surviving a plane crash / car crash on the Beltway.
I really liked this TV Show/miniseries from BBC. Why do the British do United State backroom political dealings better than we do at home, just like In the Loop (2009)? Lucius Malfoy (Jason Isaacs) as the British Ambassador, seriously, after getting some insight after a couple episodes of West Wing? Cagney (Sharon Gless) as a Hillary-esque Secretary of Defense. The plot is pretty solid for a 6 hour mini-series with plenty of relatively original plot twists throughout. The only downside was a somewhat tacked on ending. It wasn't really that the ending wasn't believable, just rushed and not too well tied up. It could have used another episode. How I can I complain though, it was on Netflix watch now, all I sacrificed was a 2:30am bedtime one night to power through the last 3 hours of episodes. I wouldn't call it Wire-worthy by any means but I was pretty impressed.
