Foyle's War: The Cage (2013 Stuart Orme) / Sunflower (2013 Andy Hay)

Sam is working at British Intelligence too, alongside an efficient administrator Alex Clatworthy; Foyle has to navigate new boss Rupert Vansittart. A dying Russian brings Foyle's attention to the mysterious goings-on at Barton Hall, during which Foyle finds a job for ex SOE expert (Ross Armstrong). Written by David Kane. With Tom Beard, Jonathan Hyde.

Then, a disturbed man - a brilliant performance by Charles Aitken - glimpses a hated figure from the past, a Nazi - Lars Eidinger - who is under British protection. The flashback scenes in the field are powerfully done, with most of the sound removed - just the evil Nazi whistling. Great double twist too.


Sunflowers have never been more sinister
