The Secret War (1 Viewer)

Has anyone in the UK, Martyn, Steve, et al, watched the 1977 BBC production The Secret War series? Based on the book Most Secret War by scientific advisor RV Jones it portrays the British efforts to counter German weapons and technology such as magnetic mines, V-1s, radio guidance, etc. I found it quite good and wished there were more than six episodes.

BTW, I've started to read Jones book, all 668 pages. {sm2} Chris

One of the interesting parts of the series are the interviews of the many participants of the war still alive at that point in time. Includes scientists, bomb disposal technicians, photo analysts as well as German personnel. Chris
