| dc.description.abstract | The French spy series Le Bureau des légendes (2015–2020) has been acclaimed for its allegedly realistic depiction of French foreign intelligence. Drawing on the concept of ‘legend’, this article adapts actornetwork theory to understand how Le Bureau was able to make a significant impact on public discussions of secret intelligence in France. The article shows how the series, was constituted as a ‘virtually true’ cover story for the Direction générale de la sécurité extérieure (DGSE), which supported the series’ production, and how this story impacted the DGSE itself. | en |
