The Raid
Prismark1025 May 2022
Warning: Spoilers
There are several stories that converge as it goes on.

The British troops plan to said Sark to destroy a frequency detector and an electricity generator. They disguise themselves as fishermen and get some important information from local lad Jamie Robertson.

Jamie's father is a prisoner of war but Jamie's mother has developed a warm friendship with Heinrich Kessel, a German soldier.

He drops by regularly for a chat and brings little gifts.

Meanwhile Oberstleutnant Koerner visits the Channel islands to boast about the capabilities of the frequency detector. Unknowing just what is about to take place.

It was about time Michael Sheard turned up as a Nazi. He seemed to specialise in them and he played Hitler several times.

The action scenes with the British raiding party now looks lethargic. A lack of action.

I did like the genuine warmth between Heinrich and Jamie's mother. It made the tragic ending more emotional.
