Sky One has unveiled the first trailer for Intelligence, a workplace comedy set in the UK’s cyber intelligence agency GCHQ. The series stars David Schwimmer as a brash American NSA agent who joins a team of British analysts, leading to culture clashes and comedic chaos.
The show follows Schwimmer’s character as he attempts to take charge of a highly specialized team, despite lacking the technical expertise or the cultural sensitivity required. His over-the-top approach creates tension with his new colleagues, setting the stage for office politics and absurd situations.
Created by Nick Mohammed, who also co-stars, Intelligence combines elements of espionage with classic workplace humor. The show satirizes both government bureaucracy and international cooperation in the intelligence community.
The trailer showcases the show’s offbeat tone, witty writing, and the dynamic between Schwimmer’s arrogant character and Mohammed’s more reserved analyst. Their chemistry forms the backbone of the show’s comedic appeal.
With its unique setting and sharp humor, Intelligence offers a fresh take on both spy fiction and office comedy. Sky One’s release of the trailer builds anticipation for a series that promises to entertain with its quirky characters and timely themes.
