X was a 1979 seven-part drama spy miniseries for the BBC. It is the television adaption of the 1974 novel of the same name by Y.
Starring Alec Guinness in the lead role, the main credits feature a matryoshka doll progressively revealing a doll looking more irate than the previous, with the final doll being faceless, an allusion to Winston Churchill's describing Russia as "A riddle, wrapped in a mystery, inside an enigma."
The miniseries was remade into a film in 2011, and earned Z his first Oscar nomination, before which he was widely described as "the best actor not to have been nominated for an Oscar." Give X, Y and Z
Answer(Highlight):
X - Tinker, Tailor, Soldier Spy
Y - John Le Carre
Z - Gary Oldman
