Set in the heart of government during a major crisis, COBRA hurls us both into the corridors of power in Westminster and the centre of disaster in the crisis zone. We follow the Prime Minister, Robert Sutherland (played by Robert Carlyle); his Chief of Staff, Anna Marshall (Victoria Hamilton); the Head of the Civil Contingencies Secretariat, Fraser Walker (Richard Dormer) and the Home Secretary, Archie Glover-Morgan (David Haig) amongst other key advisers. Not only are they and their contemporaries forced to quickly contend with impossible political decisions and their ferociously pressured personal lives, but they must also be mindful of political opponents who will use any sign of weakness and any failure within the handling of the crisis as the opportunity to strike. While the nation is rocked by shockwaves rippling out from the initial blackouts and the solar storm, the Prime Minister is forced to deal with a huge issue in his personal life after it becomes clear that his daughter, Ellie, is somehow complicit in the death of her friend Georgia, from a drugs overdose. He and wife Rachel, with the help of their cunning Press Secretary Peter Mott, handle the situation as quietly as they can. But when accusations are levelled in Parliament that they may have coached Ellie to lie to the police, Robert wonders if he, and his family, can survive this…
