About this listen

This week, we're hunting Nazis through Canada as we watch Powell and Pressburger's 1941 breakthrough movie 49th Parallel.

Would the submarine crew on the run have made it further if they hadn't felt the need to kill everyone who was rude about Hitler?

And what was the frankly appalling reason the US censor demanded so many cuts?


We're joined by Terry Stiastny, author of Believable Lies: The Misfits Who Fought Churchill's Secret Propaganda War.


Next week, we're storming the US embassy in Who Dares Wins.
