The BBC have posted details of the second and concluding episode of thrilling mini-series Spies Of Warsaw starring David Tennant and Janet Montgomery. The second episode airs at 9pm on Wednesday 16th January on BBC Four.
Episode 2:
Mercier’s mission becomes all too dangerous as his cover is
compromised while trying to unearth German military plans, and a man believed
dead reappears, sparking significant repercussions for both Mercier and Anna.
Will Mercier discover the truth in time and what consequences will this have on
the rest of Europe?
Led by intelligence from Dr Lapp, Mercier travels to
Czechoslovakia to find and question the illusive ‘Seagull’, a German activist
who is on the run from the Nazis.
Finding Seagull reluctant to become involved with the
French, Mercier soon takes matters with into his own hands and persuades him to
travel to Berlin under false identities. There, with Seagull’s help, Mercier
hopes to employ a man who could prove to be a powerful ally against the Nazi
regime.
As Mercier’s superiors become increasingly frustrated with
his lack of protocol and risk-taking, they begin to question the intelligence
he has gathered, when finally, Mercier finds himself in opposition to his own government.
Frustrated with work and longing for the beautiful Anna, he returns to Paris
and the support of his younger sister Gabrielle (Tuppence Middleton),
eventually seeking solace at the old family estate and his father’s
well-stocked wine cellar.
Now the threat of war becomes all too real as tensions rise
across Europe and Mercier has to make difficult decisions.
