War Under The Waves

- 

One of the year’s most anticipated dramas arrives on our screens this week as the epic war series Das Boot comes to Sky Atlantic, starting with a double bill on Wednesday.

Made at a cost of around £25million, with dialogue in English, German and French, the eight-part drama follows a German U-boat crew just as the tide is turning against the Nazis following the breaking of the Enigma code.

Here, we lift the hatch on everything about Das Boot…

Why does the title sound so familiar?
