Former Nazi Field Marshall Von Splitz is released from a Russian Prison after twenty five years, he vanishes, and picks up where he left off, his mission is to detonate a huge bomb.
I'll be honest, when it started, my initial thought was.....here we go it's another Nazi story, but the plot here worked incredibly well, and The Nazi angle fitted in well, it was a driving factor in the episode, not just plonked in for the sake of it.
The torture scenes look pretty good, Craig would be the most frustrating subject for any potential torturer, too tough and too smug. Expect the usual punch up and fisticuffs scenes, they're well staged here though.
I loved the tension with the bomb scene, that was very well done, despite cries of.....that old chestnut, and of course there's the car going off a cliff, they did repeat the odd bit of material it's fair to say.
A cracking, well known cast featured here, look out for Alan MacNaughtan, Derek Newark and a young Hannah Gordon, all are very good.
Rather good I thought.
8/10.
