...complex hero, Detective Superintendent Douglas Archer, 30, carries on, tackling the tricky homicide cases for which he is celebrated (the Pimlico bread knife slaying, the Great Yarmouth seafood murder). Now, however, Oxonian Archer and his boozy, street-smart assistant, Detective Sergeant Harry Woods, are working directly under Gruppenführer Fritz Kellerman, senior SS officer and police chief of Great Britain. Unlike his compatriots, the Yard man is free to move around at will in a prewar Railton automobile; he gets German-issue cigarettes, frequent dollops of real Highland Scotch, and attends fraternal parties at which the occupiers, and collaborationists...
Kyle's antihero is 35-year-old Hauptsturmführer Franz Rasch, a much decorated Waffen SS commando. Assigned to deliver the lists in Stockholm, he is betrayed by his bosses. His trail leads to neutral Ireland and England and finally back to Germany. There the disillusioned Rasch attempts to capture vital files from Schloss Wewelsburg, the Black Camelot that Himmler assembled as a Teutonic perversion of King Arthur's court. In one of the best siege narratives since The Guns of Navarone, Rasch and other embittered SS men infiltrate the monstrous castle at the same time that...
...what, you may well ask, has the death of these 94 elderly gentlemen to do with this most dubious of achievements? Well, the 94 are, unwittingly, the adoptive fathers of 94 perfect little replicas of der Führer, and now it is necessary, if you are to give the final nasty twist to their personalities, to replicate the great shaping experience of Hitler's adolescence-the death of the domineering father at age 65. A fairish number of "parents" are disposed of before Lieberman finally catches up with and confronts the wicked Mengele in a Pennsylvania farmhouse...
Collin has been seeking permission to demonstrate in the allwhite, working-class neighborhood for more than a year. After being thwarted by the city's requirement of a $60,000 bond to pay for any damage, the self-styled Führer shockingly decided to march instead in Skokie, a heavily Jewish suburb of 66,200 people, including several thousand survivors of Hitler's death camps. Skokie immediately invoked a series of ordinances to stop him, which were all overturned by state and federal courts...
...seemingly normal people who all too easily answer the call of a racist and fascist government. One of the show's principal characters is an intelligent lawyer and family man, Erik Dorf (Michael Moriarty), who rises in the SS by dreaming up "legal" justifications for the Führer's extermination program. We also meet doctors, technicians and clergymen who lend their aid to the Nazi cause. These characters, like the famous Nazi leaders who appear (Eichmann, Heydrich, Himmler), are played without German accents by such skilled actors as David Warner, Robert Stephens, T.P. McKenna and Ian Holm...
