:""An Englishman's Castle" is a British 3-part mini-series, and
:"is also a
:"parallel-world story, but a more "conventional" one: it's the present
:"(1970s), and Germany won WWII and has occupied Britain for
:"the past 30
:"years. Sir Kenneth More plays a writer for a "contemporary"
:"drama set back
:"during that war. (It's clearly supposed to be the
:"parallel-version of A
:"Family At War, a popular British 1970s war-soap that also
:"played in the US
:"on Masterpiece Theater. Got that?) But, at long last, a Resistance is
:"brewing. This series played on PBS in the late 1970s and is fondly
:"remembered by many; it's not even available in the UK, let
:"alone the US.
