SOE - Subversion

on BBC Two England

The third of eight stories about the Special Operations Executive.
Narrated by Michael Bryant On 29 August 1943, the people of Copenhagen awoke to the sound of muffled explosions as the Danish Navy scuttled its ships. The noise marked the end of more than three years' peaceful occupation by the Germans. That summer had seen a crescendo of violence in Denmark - organised by SOE.
Working through Danish agents, SOE had engineered the overthrow of a collaborationist government, and brought Denmark into the war. The story is told using unique film shot by resistance workers throughout the Occupation. Enormous emotional impact
