Trivia
The Channel Islands were the only British territories to be invaded by Nazi Germany during WWII due it's proximity to occupied France and Channel Islanders suffered hardships because of wartime shortages and brutal Nazi regulations. British troops did not attempt to stage a landing until the official German declaration of surrender in May 1945 (to avoid unnecessary civilian casualties) although RAF reconnaissance planes flew over photographing the islands and British propaganda leaflet drops on the islands occurred towards the end of the occupation to try and demoralize the Germans. Although the German occupying force put up little or no resistance to the British landing expedition, the German C/O refused to hand over control when asked for a formal surrender and was subsequently thrown into a police cell overnight until he changed his mind and accepted the war was over.

Actually is excellent

I am always interested in WWII shows that tell about the experience that civilians had during this time. Especially British citizens because they were fighting much longer and pretty much alone for over 3 years. This show did not disappoint in telling a story that not many people knew or thought about probably. But this show has an added story/surprise that from my point of view has rarely been shown. The show not only tries to tell the story of the people on the island who had to live under the German occupation but it also tries to show what it was like for some of the members of the occupying force who tried to follow their conscience as they did their duty.

I have to say the writing and the acting from the actors were excellent in portraying this dilemma that some of them faced. I felt the struggle while watching the Germans soldiers tried to be fair in situations that maybe they didn't agree with but wanting to honor why the Germans were fighting. It was difficult for them to separate this from the Nazi beliefs and Hitler's fanaticism.

In many ways I saw the struggles that both side faced. And it was all due to how well the actors portrayed their characters. I will repeat excellent acting.

For anyone who hasn't watched this or maybe started and then quit - you are missing out. Watch it and let yourself be drawn in by each episode as it goes deeper into what people experienced as the war progresses and as both sides become more familiar with each other, as both good and bad emerges in the people involved I agree with what other reviewers has said - I wish it would have had more than 2 seasons. I want to know who survived and what happened to the Germans who tried to be fair and faithful?
