Episode 1 of 5

Immersive history series, reviving the training programme of one of World War II's most covert organisations. In episode one, the students face SOE's demanding selection process.

The students face SOE's demanding selection process. Known as the Student Assessment Board, this intense four-day course puts the students through a series of physical and mental tests, all with the aim of finding out who has the raw talent required to progress to full training. The programme charts the beginning of SOE, which started with a handful of agents, in an organisation determined to find a way back into Nazi-controlled Europe.
