Close to the Enemy
AudienceAudience: 6.3
A British intelligence officer has to ensure that a captured German scientist helps the British develop jet aircraft.
My takeA taut British espionage thriller set in post-WWII Germany where a former RAF officer becomes entangled in a dangerous game of deception involving captured Nazi scientists and cold war intrigue. The series captures the moral ambiguity and tension of a fractured world rebuilding itself through compromises with its darkest elements.
