| "Waaaay back, like in the 90s or maybe earlier I saw a British mini series with similar concept: a man obsessed with his ex-wife's new love finds hiddens notes which are messages from "Moscow" to a spy network ... he decides to add his own note, asking for the termination of the guy he hates . Unfortunately, "Moscow" and "Whitehall" are just two rival private schools and the spies are all children .
