## Description

Television drama about a group of planespotters wrongly accused of being spies. 14 planespotters are arrested for behaving 'suspiciously' at an air base in Greece and are accused of being spies because of the telescopes, radio scanners and aircraft serial numbers they have in their posession. They plead their innocence but the farce turns into a nightmare when the group are held in squalid Greek prisons.

### ⭐ Rubbish
*by D***R on 14 September 2014*

I picked this up because I actually knew one of the real "Plainspotters" - a very charming fella, if a little loopy about planes, and a band called Killing Joke - before, during and after the time of his incarceration and was curious to see if they captured the event well. In summary, they didn't. Regrettably, we see this far too often in UK* "made for TV" movies: a lot of artistic license, rearrangements of key facts and dates, all to "help the story flow". And the characters could not have been more off the mark. Along with flaccid direction and production values, this all falls rather flat. If you can't get either the facts right, or develop a good story, what's the point? * Another example was the BBC's treatment of "Bravo Two Zero". Leaving aside whether the question of McNab's recollection of events was anything like the truth, they managed somehow to completely twist that story into something very different, all for the sake of the "arc of the story". One might argue that given that McNab may have made up large sections of the story, this was legitimate. Not so in the case of a real true story that had been well documented. Poor.
