"Reilly, Ace of Spies" was an awesome series I watched on PBS's Masterpiece Theater back in the mid 80's. The book was a great read too. He actually put together a plan, if I remember it correctly, to overthrow the Bolshevik's at the end of WW1 with the help of the British. Then at the last minute the British bailed. Very interesting fellow.
