The Cambridge Spies

It has long been an established fact that we British produce the best spy writers, but it is only after reading A Spy Among Friends: Kim Philby and the Great Betrayal by Ben Macintyre that I have come to realise that we also produce the best spies. Unfortunately, they rarely, if ever, spy for us. 

I also learn that four of the Cambridge Spies (Philby, Burgess, Blunt and Cairncross)  went to Trinity College, and the fifth (Donald Maclean) went to Trinity Hall. My father also went to Trinity College but as far as I know he was not a spy.
