Series 2, Episode 13: Day of Wrath

AJ and Andy reach the gripping finale for Series 2: Day of Wrath. Although they are certain it was written by John Brason, the director credit is somewhat shrouded in mystery. As well as addressing this matter, they consider the change in the relationship between Brandt and Kessler, the suddenness of Michael Culver's departure from the series, and that memorably controversial scene between Albert and Monique.  Elsewhere, we learn about Jean de Selys Longchamps on whom Andre De Beers is based and ask the question who actually invented television? Is Kessler right that it was a German invention? Also, can Albert really tell that Gestapo HQ is being attacked just by listening from inside the Candide? A book about Longchamps is now available: https://www.pen-and-sword.co.uk/The-Belgian-RAF-Pilot-Who-Defied-the-Gestapo-Hardback/p/51865 and Andy's Brussels locations guide from 20 years ago(!) can still be accessed here: http://www.survivorstvseries.com/Brussels.htm  If you would like to contact us then please email us on, or send a voicenote to: secretarmypod@gmail.com or send us a message on Bluesky: AJ is on secretarmypod.bsky.social while Andy can be found at andypodding.bsky.social.
