Powerful family drama focusing on a group of islanders adjusting to life under enemy occupation during the Second World War. In June 1940, the unthinkable happens as German soldiers land on the Channel Islands and claim them as their own. The occupation is on a scale not seen anywhere else during the war, with soldiers living side by side with the islanders. Tensions run high as lives are dramatically changed, with co-operation as well as resistance, torn loyalties and unexpected love affairs. Reviews: it sucks you in.. thanks to an excellent cast, a good script and a rather shockingly early death of a main character. - The Sunday TelegraphStephen Mallatratt's multi-faceted script spotlights the islanders' heroism and finds a place for German compassion, yet doesn't shy away from the brutality of the occupying army. - The Guardian
