Period drama Mrs. Wilson has an official U.S. airdate!

Based on the true story of Alison Wilson, real-life grandmother of the series’ star Ruth Wilson, the two-part drama tells a tale of intrigue, spycraft, and a longstanding family mystery.

At the outset of World War II, Alison McKelvie took a secretarial job with the Secret Intelligence Service. There, she fell in love with an older man—Major Alexander Wilson, a popular author of spy novels then doing real intelligence work for the war effort. Little did Alison know, but she was entering a plot as tangled as one of the major’s mind-bending fictions.
