麻豆约拍

It's a legend many of us have grown up with: a plucky group of British officers, finding themselves trapped in a heavily guarded POW camp during the Second World War, try every trick they can think of to break out. But, in a new book by Ben Macintyre, we hear for the first time the real story of Colditz. A story that's not just more complicated, but far more interesting than the one we were told.

Guest: Ben Macintyre, Associate Editor, The Times.

Host: David Aaronovitch.

Clips: 麻豆约拍/Universal Studios, The Imperial War Museum.
