Act of Betrayal

1988 miniseries and movie, VHS quality

Johnny's comments:

This is a 1988 Australian/Irish ABC co-production, mostly made in Australia, about a man involved in the IRA who becomes an informer to save his family. They are posted to Australia, where it turns out they are not as safe as they thought. Starring Elliott Gould, Patrick Bergin, Lisa Harrow and Deborra-Lee Furness, it has a pretty decent cast.

I found two different versions of the show of varying quality, the original 3 hour, 2 part mini-series and a 2 hour movie version and while both are VHS quality, the movie version is bigger and better than the mini-series version, so I've included both. Except the movie version is cut, so a few scenes don't appear below in both versions.

There's some very brief nudity from Deborra-Lee, as in a matter of frames, so I've included a cap from the scene. Hopefully a decent version of this turns up as it has a pedigree and the ABC does have an extensive archive but are very stingy with what they release.
