The Diplomat: Netflix show suggests the US-UK special relationship needs some TLC

Retrieved on: 
Monday, May 15, 2023

Ambassador Wyler is an experienced diplomat frustrated by the unwanted interventions of her high profile husband (Rufus Sewell).

Key Points: 
  • Ambassador Wyler is an experienced diplomat frustrated by the unwanted interventions of her high profile husband (Rufus Sewell).
  • It is entertaining stuff and clearly owes much to its highly successful predecessor in dissecting US politics, The West Wing (1999).
  • The Diplomat also tells the familiar story of the much celebrated “special relationship” between the US and UK.

The history of the special relationship

    • One was “Iron Curtain”, deployed to describe the hardening of tensions between east and west.
    • The other, a rallying cry intended to consolidate the Anglo-American bond forged in war, was that “special relationship”.
    • But another was that Churchill had described something – the idea of a special connection between the US and UK – that had long been the subject of sustained cultural attention.
    • All these films celebrated special Anglo-American connections often – like Churchill – with a nod towards shared language, values and history.

Unrequited love?

    • But there is also a clear sense that the two nations have become estranged.
    • And of course, sublimating it all, is the most important question of all: is the foreign secretary’s love for the ambassador unrequited?
    • If she does, then perhaps this is the very sort of TLC that might restore and rejuvenate the special relationship.
