    Sole criticisms - they should have included more Belgian collaborators like the Rexists. Would Reinhardt have really allowed himself to be executed rather than exposing Kessler to The authorities? And they should show the last episode!

    I watched this the first time round and loved it. I then bought the box set earlier this year and I am watching it as I exercise on my treadmill - my exercise time has risen dramatically! I am loving it all over again and as it is so long since I saw it I really cannot remember what happens next! I would recommend it to anyone who loves suspense and WW11. The one thing I would love to know though is where some of the external town shots were taken. Anything I read says some external scenes were shot in Brussels but some of them look more like Ghent or one of the more provincial cities or towns. Does anyone have any knowledge of where external scenes in Belgium were shot?

    Yes indeed. "Secret army", has to be my favourite series from the 70-ies. A classic in his own right. Very dramatic, very real! Even at this moment it's running again on Belgian TV, and every time it's a joy to watch! I got to mention, especially Kessler, played by Clifford rose, a great performance, even today! I wonder what happened to most of the actors, cause haven't heard or seen much about them after the series. One thing I did find very sorry is, why they had to make a comic version of it! Because the series is telling us of people who risked their lives to save that of others, when Europe, (Belgium), was going trough his most dark period in history! Peter.

    This series played a few years ago on the "History Channel." It was, to me, good from first episode to last. The acting, dialogue, situations were true to life. One could, in tiny roles, see actors such as David Neilson (Roy on Coronation Street) as a young German officer. That the Gestapo officer played by Clifford Rose escapes at the end is realistic: though he is reprehensible, we are made to understand him. If this show isn't available on video, is hopefully will be.
