    Episode 5
    Callum decides Lindsay-Jones might be better to get the secrets of the perfume from Frau Bellinghausen but she is having none of it.

    Victor has uncovered evidence that Dieter was using slave labour when developing jet engines for the Nazis. Although Dieter has been cracking on with his work for the British, this now places suspicion back on him. Kathy has found a woman who might shed more light to Dieter's past.

    Callum goes to the Foreign Office and easily finds the minutes to the meeting about the plans for a coup against Hitler which could had prevented the second world war just as Lindsay-Jones had said.

    Victor is still a loose cannon not happy how all these Nazis are being wined and dined and Salter is still listening in even though Callum had thrown him out of the hotel.

    Again instead of moving forward I just felt the plot has stepped backwards. Back to Dieter being more of a Nazi than first thought, Victor going haywire again. I even predicted Lindsay-Jones would come a cropper and he nearly did. Just more padding of a serial that should had been done with in four parts.
