Undercover follows the lives and family of Maya Cobbina, a British lawyer conducting a long-term legal fight to uncover the truth of an old miscarriage of justice, while her husband is haunted by his past.
Okonedo and Lester shine in their roles as marrieds and determined professionals; their performances keep the whole thing from completely going off the rails, even during the goofy conclusion.
It's worth your time, if only to wallow in the brilliance of Okonedo's performance and to consider what might have been if only Moffat had exercised some restraint.
A combination of Moffat's skilful plotting, James Hawes's whipcrack direction and, crucially, all those nagging headlines made Undercover's thesis compelling enough to swallow. The performances were terrific, too.
