In an exclusive interview with MEAWW, Alistair Petrie revealed what fans of the show can expect from its second season, as well as his character George White

WARNING: Potential spoilers ahead

When 'Deep State,' an espionage thriller series in the mold of 'Homeland' premiered in the United Kingdom on April 5 last year, it made history. Produced by Endor Productions for the Fox Networks Group of Europe and Africa, it became the network's first-ever commissioned script outside the shores of the United States. Quite the mantle to hold, and one that the eight-part series did justice to considering it was immediately renewed for a second season on the day of its release.

The series sees Mark Strong star as Max Easton, a former Field Agent for British Intelligence Service MI6 who has been out of the mire of special ops for 10 years but suddenly finds himself recruited back into the field. The likes of Joe Dempsie (Harry Clarke), Karima McAdams (Leyla Toumi), Lyne Renee (Anna Easton), and Anastasia Griffith (Amanda Jones) all play important roles as the season progresses, but none proved to be as intriguing as Alistair Petrie's George White.
