Plot Synopsis

Created, written, and executive produced by Joe Barton, BLACK DOVES is a one-hour spy thriller that follows Helen Webb (Keira Knightley), a quick-witted, down-to-earth, dedicated wife and mother - and professional spy. For 10 years, she's been passing on her politician husband's secrets to the shadowy organisation she works for: the Black Doves. When her secret lover Jason (Andrew Koji) is assassinated, her spymaster, the enigmatic Reed (Sarah Lancashire), calls in Helen's old friend Sam (Ben Whishaw) to keep her safe. Together, Helen and Sam set off on a mission to investigate who killed Jason and why, leading them to uncover a vast, interconnected conspiracy linking the murky London underworld to a looming geopolitical crisis. All six episodes of BLACK DOVES' first season dropped on Thursday, December 5, 2024 on Netflix.

BLACK DOVES has been renewed for a second season.
