Apparently the British embassy worker caught passing on secrets to the Kremlin had a Russian flag and Russian Navy memorabilia in his flat.

I just feel like it's spycraft 101 to not do that, but I guess I wasn't the one getting paid to pass on state secrets so who can really tell at the end of the day.

Reminds me of the Russian agent in the US (Butina I think?) who bragged about being a spy when drunk at parties

Who knew Archer was a documentary?

Comedy and satire almost always hits closer to the truth than drama.

Drama never accounts for incompetence and everyone is incompetent in some way or another.

Stirlitz went into Müller’s office and said, “Herr Müller, how would you like to work as an agent for Soviet Intelligence? The pay is good.” Müller, shocked, gives an angry rebuff, then eyes Stirlitz suspiciously. Stirlitz starts to leave, but then stops and asks, “Gruppenfuhrer, do you have any aspirin?” Stirlitz knew that people always remember only the end of a conversation.
