Oh, I don't mean the research; I'm sure that was all very thorough and true! (I'm not an expert either - one book doesn't really count!) I'm just stupidly obsessed with names and if people can't get the names right for the setting, it's usually enough to make me stop reading (but not in this case, so yes, I liked it).

I like to think most of them survived.

I'd hope so, too. Going by the historical info, the odds are actually more against the German characters - or at least against all of them surviving - than the Islanders. Provided they could avoid being shot or being sent back to the Cherche Midi, of course! (I do worry about Helen, after the events of the final episode. And Clare, considering.) But, yes. It would not exactly have got any cheerier, would it? Still doesn't stop me wanting to see what they would have done. I'm glad I watched it - it was pure accident, I'd never heard of it before, but someone on my flist had it and wasn't keen and offered to send me it because it had James Maxwell in one episode. I wasn't at all sure I wanted it just for that!! I nearly didn't take her up on it. :-) And as you say, it's quality TV all right.
