Caption: Simon Pegg and Hannah Khalique-Brown talk to us about returning as Danny Patrick and Saara Parvin in The Undeclared War Series 2. The pair reveal what it was like meeting real-life spies and visiting GCHQ – including the highly secure Greggs they weren’t allowed to enter – and explain why the programme’s depiction of cyber warfare feels more frighteningly relevant than ever. Hannah discusses learning programming languages for the role, Saara’s evolution from underdog to indispensable GCHQ coder and how the first series launched her acting career. Simon reflects on playing a serious dramatic role, his love of technology, life after Mission: Impossible and the importance of Spaced and Shaun of the Dead to his career. They also discuss misinformation, online bots, democracy, improvisation and, most importantly, their definitive Greggs orders.
