He was much younger and was taken to Anerica after being with the nuns. No idea how that came about as it seemed unlikely.
Not that nuns didn't take in children but they generally did that before the Nazis captured them and overall they didn't take in that many.
If the Nazis were looking for a woman and two children, and they did know who they were looking for, it was also highly unlikely she'd have got away with hiding in the hall cupboard.
Just take it with a pinch, it was a very flimsy plot, especially the unexploded bomb malarkey.

I really enjoy this...apart from the irritating characters played by Sue Holderness and Robin Askwith

Yes they're badly cast I think.

I think problems with those two parts are more down to the writing than the casting. They're caricatures really, especially the Sue Holderness character.

Are these stand-alone episodes (like Death in Paradise, say) or is it a continuation each week? (Will save up my recordings to binge-watch if it's the latter.)

Well there is the underlying saga of her husband’s death but the individual episodes each have their own story I believe.

Yes there is the woman who was her husband’s second “wife” who is stalking her and who seems to have been responsible for the husband’s death. There are fleeting glimpses of hr in every episode

Who's the actress in the wig whose pretending to be French? And it's nice to see the remaining Chuckle Brother. He must have thought he'd never work again.

I'm enjoying this, it's very DiP but with older actors who haven't had much work for a while. And it's nice to see some sunshine in these bleak dark days.

I just looked at her IMDB but it's someone else she reminds me of. Wish I could remember the name of the actor!

She looked a bit like Deirdre Langton/Rashad/Barlow when she had the glasses on. If DLRB had an obviously fake black bob.
