What I didnt understand was the farmer sabotuer thing. Ruth was a relay person. The relay person would intercept orders from (headquarters), and relay them onto the special ops teams. Neither of the 3 enties were known to each other.

HOW DID rUTH GET THE INFO FROM hq TO THE OPS BOYS WITHOUT THEM KNOWING WHO IT WAS DELIVERING IT, AND, WHERE WOULD SHE DROP IT OFF THAT WAS SECURE ENOUGH TO BE FOUND BY THE OPS BOYS BUT STILL NOBODY WOULD KNOW THAT SHE HAD MADE A DELIVERY?

I realize that in the film, it seemed like a merry go round, that another relay would be delivering messages to the ops boys there at the farm, But still??
I imagine that wouldnt have worked as well as they thought it would. It didnt in Europe. I remember on tv about a woman whos job was to shoot agents who collaborated with the Germans. Said she had shot several men. They used her cause she could get closer to the target without being suspected by them until it was too late.
I imagine it was bed and bullitt lol

You know, you would think BBC would realize there is a big demand for these shows in the US, put them on Amazon or something for $2.99 a pop, and make a profit off them. My wife's interest in Dr. Who has cost $$! Its the old Napster vs Itunes scenario...

I've noticed when searching for several TV shows on youtube that there are a lot (hundreds) of spam videos that want to direct you to another site, making it dfficult to find anything, almost wonder if it is a ploy by youtube to help with copyright infringment.

As an avid reader of WWII and a strong interest in homesteading, I absolutely love this series!

I just wish the men were farmer smarter and they would stick to farming/gardening/homesteading. They hardly make mention of doing any gardening, the hows and plowing, planting. weeding. picking, canning in hardly any detail.
They showed useing a modern bailer, but they were useing it like a stationary bailer and so, same with the combine. Seemed crazy to me. people here were useing stationary bailers all through the war, so I know they had to be useing them as pull tyoes were rare here then. They would have been nearly extinct there then.
They did use the combine in the field. The operator was the owner. He had used it for 50yrs. He should have knowin he was takeing in too much straw, and lowered his cutterbar to keep it from plugging.
They was useing a 2 bottom horse plow behind a tractor. They had 3 tractors there, but no tractor plows.. AND when plowing, One had to walk beside the man behind the handles . Whats with that? He needed to be either resting to take over or doing something at the farm. Didnt show them discing, or harrowing. You dont plant flax or any small grain crop after just plowing.
