With Gorbachev in power in the Soviet Union, the winds of change are sweeping through both Russia and America, creating new perils.
A growing rift within the KGB draws disillusioned former officer Oleg Burov (Costa Ronin) back into the fray, and may set Philip and Elizabeth on opposing sides as the Cold War reaches its boiling point.
In the Season 6 premiere, "Dead Hand": it's autumn, 1987, and as a major arms control summit looms, Elizabeth is pushed to her limits as never before.
Philip, meanwhile, has settled into running the newly expanded travel agency - until an unexpected visitor makes a disquieting request.
