PLOT SUMMARY
English
In July 1940, when Axis forces occupied Western Europe, the Special Operations
Executive was set up by British Prime Minister Winston Churchill to μset Europe
ablaze. SOE deployed secret agents to support resistance movements in Occupied
Europe and worked with them to prepare for Liberation. Although they worked far
from the battlefields, the men and women of the SOE were among the bravest
Gladiators of World War II. From an anonymous building in Londons Baker Street,
agents were provided with cover stories, false identity cards, ration books and
clandestine weapons like exploding cigarettes and itching powder for German underwear. Young men and women were sent alone into enemy occupied territory, knowing that they could be shot as spies if captured. This programme examines SOEs most successful raid on the Norsk-Hydro plant in Telemark, Norway, and its most disastrous episode Englandspiel in Holland. Former agents tell remarkable stories of bravery and sacrifice in the face of capture, torture and death as they operated under the very noses of the enemy.

I juli 1940 gav den brittiska premiarminister Winston Churchill, order om att skapa en specialstyrka som kunde hjalpa det tyskockuperade Europa. Det blev starten pa Special Operations Executive (SOE), som landsatte hemliga agenter for att hjalpa motstandsrorelserna i de ockuperade landerna att forbereda de allierades landgang och den slutliga befrielsen. I en intetsagande byggnad pa Londons Baker Street utrustades SOEs agenter med falsk bakgrund, falska papper, tyska ransoneringskuponger och dolda vapen, exempelvis exploderande cigaretter eller klipulver till tyskarnas underklader. Unga man och kvinnor skickades in pa fientligt omrade val medvetna om att de skulle bli skjutna om de upptacktes och fangades som spioner. Filmen fokuserar pa SOEs framgangsrikaste operation: Angreppet pa Norsk-Hydro i Norges Telemarken. Vi avslojar det storsta fiaskot: Englandspiel i Holland. Fore detta agenter berattar fantastiska historier om mod och offervilja under eviga hot att tas tillfanga, torteras och dodas.
