Overview
- The BBC is premiering Honey on BBC One and BBC iPlayer with the first two episodes at 9pm and 9.50pm on Saturday, November 14, 2026, and the remaining episodes airing weekly.
- Ann Skelly stars as 24-year-old Martha Schmitt, a deep-cover MI6 agent who is the younger Carolyn Martens from Killing Eve.
- The central story follows Martha in East Berlin in 1982 as her mission risks exposure and she becomes entangled in a love triangle with a Stasi counterintelligence head and a CIA operative.
- Principal cast members named in recent coverage include Nate Mann, Jannis Niewöhner and Rory Kinnear, with additional supporting roles listed by Radio Times and York Press.
- Writer Emma Moran has said she aimed for Honey to stand alone from Killing Eve by humanising opposing figures and showing Stasi bureaucracy rather than reducing it to a stereotype.
