Lokks like they have used the U571 set for the U-Boat interiors, I think it was also used quite recently in the ITV drama "Ghostboat".

Missed it on Sunday night too and 4oD is not available outside of the UK

I'll wait and see if some clever sod posts it online somewhere dodgy before next Sunday's episode.

Channel 4 kept this one quiet or I completely missed any advertisements for it. Luckily I have Virgin Media so will check it out on their On Demand service. Sometimes I can record from on demand so might be able to put it on DVD.

Enjoying this series very much, as it gives a perspective of the Atlantic war from both sides which makes a change.
