    Thoroughly enjoyed Official Secrets which tells of how GCHQ employee, Katharine Gun, leaked a secret NSA memo to the press. The memo was from a US defence chief suggesting that certain UN member states should be pressured and spied upon in order to vote on the UN resolution to invade Iraq. An unusually gritty performance from Keira Knightley and if you don't know the story, it's definitely worth waiting right until the very end.
