Part 7/10:
Notable Scenes and Behind-the-Scenes Insights
The host discusses various scenes, including spying tactics involving teapots used as listening devices, underground workshops, and plans for elaborate escapes. They praise the show’s clever use of language, props, and set design that cleverly depicts the prisoners running a vast underground operation—sometimes humorously exaggerated, but impressively detailed for its time.
Actors often speak in their native German, and some dialogue features genuine German conversations, occasionally without subtitles. The host appreciates this authenticity, noting that the show’s use of native speakers enhances its credibility, even if the humor and stereotypes are a product of their time.
