A new, twisty sci-fi spy thriller series has just been made available to stream at home for free.
That show is titled The Copenhagen Test and is accessible through Channel 4's website right now.
The story follows Alexander Hale (Simu Liu, Shang-Chi), a first-generation Chinese-American military veteran turned analyst who works for a top-secret spy agency called The Orphanage.
When his superiors become convinced that The Orphanage has a mole, Alexander quickly realises he is their prime suspect, despite years of loyalty and dedication to his country.
As he launches his own covert investigation in an effort to clear his name, the analyst stumbles upon a shocking discovery.
JOE checked out the first episode of The Copenhagen Test, and we're eager to watch more. This is thanks to the series' ingenious premise, big twists and constant air of paranoia, as Alexander starts to doubt everybody, including himself.
The show also co-stars Melissa Barrera (Abigail) as a bartender at the main character's favourite pub, who may be more than meets the eye.
The Copenhagen Test premiered in the US back in December, though it has only reached Ireland and the UK this month.
Viewers this side of the Atlantic should be aware that the series has sadly already been cancelled.
That said, though the show leaves some plot threads unresolved at the end of the first season, it does reportedly provide answers to its main mystery.
All eight episodes of The Copenhagen Test are streaming on Channel 4's website for free right now.
