That one was an accompany to a program on BBC Two last night which got a load of ex-ministers, military leaders and diplomats and put them through a Ukraine style situation involving Estonia and Latvia which eventually transitions into a nuclear exchange when Russia 'accidentally' nukes a US and UK carrier fleet.
It's the sort of piecemeal tactic that Russia has trademarked in the Ukraine and Crimea, although I think the nuking of the ships was a bit OTT but the rest was pretty pointed.
Does the Beeb have an agenda? It's possible, but since we're not quite sure where we're standing with the Russians at the moment, sort of working with them against Daesh but acting against them because of the Ukraine and Litvenenko.
Besides, we did all the 'Terrorists coming to kill us all' media back in the 2000s, and now the Bear is back, it makes much better drama.
