UKTV - Colditz: The Legend (2010) 720p HDTV AC3 x264-MVGroup

The escapes are ingenious, brave, exciting and even poignant, but it’s the touching memories of daily life, letters from home, secretly-brewed hooch and staving off the boredom which reveal what it was really like to have been locked up inside the notorious castle.Colditz – The Legend tells the exciting stories of some of most daring escapes from Oflag IV C, including the first British home run by Airey Neave and the incredible “Naked Escape” which saw Pat Reid (on whose story the Colditz series was based) finally make it back to Blighty.The documentary gets first hand insight of day-to-day life inside the camp from Colditz veterans Corran Purdon, Micky Burn and Peter Parker, as well as hearing from the relatives of Pat Reid, Airey Neave, Peter Storie-Pugh, Dougie Moir and Jock Hamilton-Baillie, who share their memories, photographs and memorabilia.
