BBC First has confirmed an Australian airdate for the UK suspense drama Cobra.
In times of national emergency, a team comprised of Britain’s leading experts, crisis contingency planners and the most senior politicians assemble under the name COBRA to form the committee entrusted to protect the people of Great Britain.
Set in the heart of government during a major crisis, this six part series written by Ben Richards, hurls us both into the corridors of power and the eye of the storm on the ground as we follow the Prime Minister, Robert Sutherland and his Chief of Staff, Anna Marshall.
Not only are they forced to contend with impossible political decisions and their ferociously pressured personal lives, they must also be mindful of political opponents who will use any sign of weakness as the opportunity to strike…
Starring: Robert Carlyle (Trainspotting, Once Upon a Time, The Full Monty), Victoria Hamilton (The Crown, Doctor Forster, Victoria & Albert), Richard Dormer (Fortitude, Rellik, Game of Thrones)
The 6-part series Cobra premieres Wednesday November 11 at 8:30pm on BBC First
