The bobbies not getting a pension is outrageous.

A lot of research done but still! Terms like Britain being misused in the script. 😅 I hate caring so much about that e.g 6:34

I know of an island called sark, but not one called ‘serr’

One of the first resistance cells created was the Jersey Communist Party, created by a teenage activist called Norman Le Brocq and two other young activists belonging to the Communist Party of Great Britain (CPGB). Using this cell, Norman Le Brocq helped create an umbrella organisation known as the Jersey Democratic Movement (JDM), to unite both communist and non-communist resistance across the island.
