Philby alone sent hundreds of catholic dissidents in East Germany to their deaths including their families all so he could enjoy casinos and cocktails. Like all communists of the post war era an intensely evil selfish man without a soul.
Greetings from the Netherlands. Thank you for this most interesting lecture from the excellent dr. Lownie. Wish there are more coming of this quality on the you tube channel.
Very interesting. Hugh Sykes Davies was my uncle. As he married five or six times (he married the same woman twice so we're not sure of the count) so I doubt if he was homosexual.
It could have been twice as long and still been worth the listening time. Thank you!
Fascinating topic!! Andrew is such a great researcher and speaker...I'll look at your other lectures.
Watching from Norwich, Norfolk, England.
Thank you for a wonderful programme.
I've read a great deal on the Cambridge Spies. I've always wondered how many people died or suffered from the activities of these men and women.

That was brilliant, Thank you.
Knowingly passing the port the wrong way round the table - undoubtedly the beginning of the end. A superb presentation, thanks.
Thank you for your work and presentations
Thanks for this love all the spy stuff, and Andrew writes great books.
Very interesting. Amazing UK and USA didn't throw out espionage and concentrate on diplomacy after such a situation.

Plenty of men married and had history of homosexuality. Schools were well know for it, particularly among the ‘old boy’ network.
Marrying is no indication of heterosexuality. Seen many married men in compromising positions with other men.

So you're from the USA
Fun fact….McClean is buried in the parish church in my village; Penn, Buckinghamshire.
Let it go bankrupt so the state can pick it up with no guarantee of existing debt.
Spies are a boring lot !!😅 and can be recognized easily by counting the number of their partners.
