Colditz
On ITV1
A wartime prison drama centered on resourceful soldiers' duty-driven escape attempts from an ostensibly inescapable castle, balancing tension with camaraderie and strategic ingenuity.
During World War II, the Germans convert the castle of Colditz into an escape-proof prison where recidivist escapees are imprisoned under one roof. The most accomplished escape artists are gathered there, brave soldiers who view escape not only as a challenge but as a duty, in order to harass and irritate German forces as much as they can.
