I enjoyed the series but was left up in the air at the end. What a very strange ending. I wondered whether a further series might be in the pipeline. Any inside knowledge anyone?

[Grandmo]

Don't have an answer, but I thought it left it open for another series, perhaps with him and the American journalist joining the resistance.

If you'd read the novel that's it, everything the resistance wanted was achieved ,the king as a head of state or a figurehead to lead the country back from occupation was no good as he was injured, the Nazi's had shot him [be it by accident] so that would ensure the country would support the resistance more, the Americans are now in the war due to the resistances influence ,and they will develop the atomic bomb which will force Nazi Germany to withdraw,job done

I'm with you Helly,a very disappointing ending.

[hellywelly4]

Thank you jlcm. I'm afraid I hadn't read the book, deliberately really as so often the book and drama differ so much. I felt the ending didn't make any of that clear at all. They all seemed to be going their separate ways - where was Archer heading off to for instance? Why didn't he hide in the priest's hole as Huth suggested - perhaps he didn't trust him.

[Peter Pedant]

which is the book where everything is as above

but they let off a dirty bomb at a nazi gathering
and galvanise the resistance in that way

( I did read it in 1966)
