Read the book! It's easily one of the top five Cold War spy novels ever written (another one by le Carre, The Spy Who Came In From the Cold is on there too).

Tinker, Tailor has two sequels, but you can skip The Honorable Schoolboy and go straight to Smiley's People, which provides a nice wrap-up of the whole thing. And there's a BBC production of that too.

I might, hypothetically, in some possible world, have access to a digital copy of both series, as well as means of distribution for it. But obviously I would never do such a dastardly thing as to combine them!

My knowledge of spy novels is sadly limited! I must rectify this. Books!

In a possible, imaginary world, I might be engaged in the pursuit of digital representations of spies. I wouldn't dream of suggesting anyone email me (amajan at gee male) clues.
