Foyle's War: High Castle (2015 Stuart Orme)

The final season, filmed in Liverpool. Or Zagreb. Or somewhere.


That's it - put Sam in danger again! (She's also pregnant.) Good sub-plot 'Women should stay at home' (Jamie Winston appears). Even better sub-plot - powerful business interests supporting Hitler, but with eye on Russian oil. I.G. Farben is (of course) a real German manufacturing company which did indeed use slave labour from concentration camps.

Good to see repeated character of the eye-patched lawyer from The Hide back again, Will Keen. Rest of cast: Nigel Lindsay, Madeleine Potter, George Lasha, John Mahoney.

DP Tony Coldwell, music Colin Towns, editor David Yardley.
