The Diplomat | Official Trailer | Netflix

Got a bunch of people running around being very serious, splitting hairs over who should say what to the public. I don't know how you could maintain that much intensity for more than a couple of hours, but apparently this is what these people run on. The best part is the new US ambassador to the UK is apparently bipolar in regard to her husband, who is also a career diplomat.
We get to visit Winfield House, the Ambassador's residence:

Winfield House was built in 1936 for Barbara Hutton, granddaughter of Frank Winfield Woolworth. Yes, that Woolworth. She gave it to the US Government in 1955.

The building sits on a 12 acre private park.
We also get to visit the new US Embassy building:

The glass windows... actually the glass walls, are 15 cm or 5.9 inches thick. They are called explosion proof but there is no such thing, just need a bigger explosion.
