After the death of Francois, Natalie is determined that Max is brought to justice, but Albert wants to be certain before he takes action. Meanwhile, a German flying ace and a plane on a secret list cause complications for Lifeline. AJ and Andy find much to enjoy in this the penultimate episode of Series 2. As well as their appreciation for the Monique and Brandt storyline and Natalie's frustration at Max's continued presence at the Candide, they discuss Kessler's new bathroom, the amount of reported action in this instalment, and the question of who is the Prisoner of War of the title. Elsewhere Juliette Hammond (Natalie) reflects on a scene in this episode which brought her closer to Bernard Hepton's Albert; Chris Richards shares excellent technical information on the Messerschmitt Bf 110 (the plane on the secret list that Max sketches); and Ryan shares his immediate reaction on viewing the episode for the first time. All this and AJ shares an alternative vision for Max's end, before dropping tea all over their laptop. Thankfully this recording survived unscathed!
