Masterpiece Theatre "Island at War"

This riveting five-part drama chronicles the Nazi invasion and occupation of Britain's Channel Islands in June of 1940, the first step in Hitler's master plan to conquer all of England. Set on the fictional island of St. Gregory, the series incorporates some of the actual events that played out on the Channel Islands, situated 20 miles off the coast of France, as it follows the plights of three families suddenly forced to live side-by-side with the enemy on a scale unparalleled during the whole of World War II. This absorbing tale of love and loss, loyalty and resistance begins as residents frantically rush to evacuate St. Gregory when they receive news about the imminent arrival of the Germans, only to be caught up in a bombing raid at the harbor. James Wilby (Bertie & Elizabeth); Clare Holman (Prime Suspect 6); Owen Teale (Ballykissangel); and Philip Glenister (Calendar Girls) star.
