Someone over at Sky must be a U-Boot fan. Maybe even here aboard Subsim?

Best news I have heard in a long time when you look at the crap Hollywood is churning out. I have the original series on VHS and DVD and hope the release it in the UK for TV and later DVD

confirmed, Bavarian production (original makers) will be making 6x 1 hour episodes, due for release 2018, it will continue on from where the film ended

Mittelwaechter · 06-27-16, 07:34 AM

Should be 8x1 hours according to SPON - http://www.spiegel.de/kultur/tv/fern...a-1099280.html

"acht neue Folgen" - "eight new episodes"

Don't expect a new "Das Boot" in quality or claustrophobia.
It is said to be more about the French Resistance and the German forces - with some U-Boot action.
The overall situation adapted to our modern occupying forces, claiming to bring a better life - and the resulting resistance.

We'll see.

Wow! Looking forward to this!

Will be hard to do with the quality bar so very high. Wish them luck.

We here on the forum, refer to the following video as "Tuesday".

I just read the news about this new Das Boot miniseries.

Interested to see it, but it sounds like it's going to be made to push a 21st century 'politically-correct agenda'

rather than be made to satisfy us WW2 history enthusiasts...

I share that same sinking feeling.

If anyone actually tried to do something other than political indoctrination, the project would probably be cancelled. "Ars gratia agenda propria."

I'm not getting my hopes up. I've been let down too many times with reboots, remakes and late sequels.

I see what you did there
