Alexander, a former KGB and Russian federal security services officer and an outspoken critic of President Vladimir Putin, died in agony in November 2006 after ingesting a rare radioactive substance.

A UK public inquiry concluded in 2016 that Russians Dmitri Kovtun and Andrei Lugovoi had deliberately poisoned Alexander by putting polonium-210 in his drink at the Millennium Hotel in Mayfair.

Led by former High Court judge Sir Robert Owen, the inquiry found that the tea poisoning had “probably” been carried out with the approval of the Russian president.

Possible motives included Alexander’s work for British intelligence agencies after fleeing Russia, his criticism of the FSB and his association with other Russian dissidents, while there was also said to be a “personal dimension” to the antagonism between him and Putin.

Kovtun died in June of Covid-19 in Moscow, according to the Russian state news agency Tass.

Highly anticipated: David will star in the upcoming ITV drama Litvinenko, which premieres on ITVX on December 15.
