MATTHEW WEYLAND features in The Ipcress File.

Peaky Blinders star Joe Cole plays the bespectacled Harry Palmer in ITV's new adaptation of the classic Len Deighton spy novel, The Ipcress File.

Set in Berlin in 1963, we follow former British Army sergeant Harry Palmer, whose dodgy dealings as a fixer and smuggler come to an abrupt end, landing him in prison. But when British secret services come knocking, it seems that Harry's knowledge of Berlin's underworld could come in handy after all – and maybe even keep him out of prison.

9pm, 6th March on ITV.
