    Unscripted History | Virginia Hall: The One-Legged Spy Who Terrorized the Nazis
    Jul 23 2025

    She walked with a limp and carried a wooden leg named Cuthbert — but beneath the surface, Virginia Hall was building one of the most effective spy networks in Nazi-occupied France. Known to the Gestapo as “the most dangerous Allied agent,” Hall coordinated sabotage missions, smuggled Allied pilots across borders, and slipped past German patrols with nothing but forged papers and nerves of steel.

    In this premiere episode of Unscripted History, discover how an underestimated American woman outwitted Hitler’s war machine, climbed the Pyrenees on a prosthetic leg, and vanished into myth — all without ever firing a shot.
