Colditz (TV series)

[EternalOptimist]

Not so much 'Yesterday' as yesterdecades.

try to imagine it......

little kid 'grandad, what did you used to do when you was in it ?'

TW (in deep gruff voice) 'well, i used to post with some mates in a cuk forum'
'you know, a text based ,web based sequential chat arena'

little kid 'woowzer, grandad wolf, I didnt know you were THAT old'

[Wodewick]

He was indeed: Flight Lieutenant Simon Carter

I don't think I got into Colditz... but I did like Illiya Kuriakin (probably awful spelling)

Poor show old chap. Keep a stiff upper lip though.

Yes. Illya Kuryakin in the Man from Uncle. Much earlier than Colditz (1967/9) but good fun. Hardly based on reality though.

[MrMark]

Even better, I thought, was Secret Army.

Still worth getting the dvds today, despite the best spoiling antics of Renee and Herr Flick

Great epsiode when one of the chaps escaped and made it to the US embassy only to get a knock back. And all too true sadly. The septics still can't give an explanation for that one.

Anyone remember watching this the first time around?

Yes. I get the point.

Gosh yes! Recorded that a while back. A fair few of the Colditz actors were in it. And I'm sure Helga made a guest appearance too.
"Tell me Monsieur, was you wife's voice trained?"
"Yes. Unfortunately it escaped and returned to the wild"
