My mate Keith said he would only play if he could be the Germans. Fair enough, but we never got around to it. Has anyone played the game and was it any good? It probably would have still been much more fun than the best pc game, and we might even have finished the evening locked up for real...
I played it with some mates as a kid back in the late '70's. It was a bit of fun. The series Colditz was pretty fun as well. I sat and watched the whole lot a few months ago on youtube. Brought back some good memories of watching it when it was first on TV.
