F1 star cast in in adaptation of spy classic from House of Cards author

As a huge fan of political dramas, I always associate the name Dobbs with ‘House of Cards’. He’s a Conservative politician and a member of the House of Lords, but most people – myself included – know him as the brilliant mind behind that incredible trilogy. It’s fascinating to me that it’s been brought to life twice on screen – first as a BBC series back in 1990, and then with the hugely popular Netflix show that ran for several years starting in 2013.
