The Ipcress File background

The Ipcress File

A sophisticated spy navigates red tape to unravel the enigma surrounding the disappearance and mind control of esteemed British experts in the heart of London.

A team of renowned Western scientists is mysteriously abducted, only to reemerge days later with their minds erased, rendering them useless. In response, the British government dispatches Agent Harry Palmer to unravel the mystery, a move that surprises him given his troubled past, leading him to suspect he was chosen for the task due to his perceived expendability.
