Colditz

COLDITZ was a fact-based drama about life in a special prisoner camp for habitual escapers during World War 2 who were determined to fight their own war by constantly planning escapes and diverting military resources to pursue them. The show ran for 2 series and featured a first rate cast including Robert Wagner, David McCallum and Jack Hedley. COLDITZ was one of the first programmes to show the war from a German point of view as well as from a British / American viewpoint. The stereotypical Nazi shows up occasionally, but on the whole they are played sensitively and intelligently, especially Bernard Hepton as the Kommandant.

Cette série est inspirée de la véritable histoire de la forteresse de Colditz, réputée imprenable, qui servait de camp d'internement pour officiers alliés (Oflag) et accueillait les prisonniers de guerre ayant tenté de s'évader d'autres camps à plusieurs reprises.
