Philip Palmer's series about ex-military wargamer Bradley Shoreham returns to find him back in the City. He has been summoned for an audience with industrialist and international financier Alessandra Pacetti. Thus begins a deadly game that threatens to become all too real for those caught up in its complex schemes.

Directed by Toby Swift

This is the third series of 'Red and Blue', Philip Palmer's drama series focusing on the work of Lieutenant Colonel Bradley Shoreham (Tim Woodward). After leaving the British Army, Shoreham became a Consultant Subject Matter Expert. He spends his working life creating war games for training purposes. Fictional they may be but the higher the level of authenticity, the greater their value to the participants. And when governments and major corporations are paying for training they expect a high return for their money.

In the last series, Shoreham had an abrasive encounter with leading hedge fund supremo, Malcolm Pemberley. Now he reluctantly accepts an invitation back to the City, a world far removed from his natural habitat. Military work was never so dangerous as this.
