Summary

More than three decades after Nazi Germany won the Second World War, the United Kingdom is a fascist dominated puppet state. Scriptwriter Peter Ingram pens the popular soap opera An Englishman's Castle, which is set in London during the German invasion of the UK in 1940 but his suggestion to introduce a Jewish character is met with fierce opposition from programme controller Harmer.
