- This film was developed to show World War 2 RAF aircrew what would happen if they were shot down & captured, their orders and duties, and consequences if they let slip even the most innocent sounding facts. The film is based on information supplied by escaped RAF prisoners and via British Intelligence. In this dramatization the four man crew of an RAF Hudson medium bomber fall into enemy hands and are interrogated by Luftwaffe intelligence officers. Despite knowing that they are only supposed to reveal their name rank and service number, they gradually reveal important facts about their aircraft, airfield, squadron, missions and more. A movie ticket stub carelessly left in a pocket is the small acorn from which German interrogators subtly gain access to important information. Rather than using harsh interrogation techniques, they cleverly gain what they want through apparently casual, friendly conversation and hidden microphones. I restored the video & audio.

I don't know how you got this, but good work!
The German soldiers cockney accent made me bust out laughing
I'm convinced the Germans are really English actors. My natural gullibility is not being rewarded.
What is interesting about this early war British production is how the Germans are called the "Hun," as in the Great War, and are not depicted as stupid, crazy, evil Nazi clones Sieg Heiling every other minute. This despite the fact that the film was released after the terror bombing of London during the Blitz in late '40.
Before criticizing this movie please consider the following: This is about how the Germans generally treated captured English aircrew. The Germans and the English generally treated each other's captured aircrew in compliance with the terms of the Geneva Convention(s). Take note that the point of the movie was to teach English aircrew that the German interrogators didn't have to use "beatings or torture" to get valuable information. Later in the war the USAAF made a film with the same message for American aircrew (You can find it here on TH-cam). There is probably a German counterpart to this film that has the same lessons for German aircrew in the event they are captured by the English.
Yes, it MAY have been how the Germans treated captured English fliers but with the help of a dirty, stinking BRITISH traitor. I have a replica of a copy of Instructions In Case of Capture for British airmen from the same year this film was made, generally telling them to keep that SHUT (she writes, pointing to her mouth) at all times when in company with other prisoners. It's so fucking detailed that, well, I suggest you buy one of these replica packs. So, BEFORE you go shooting your mouth off next time, I suggest you do a bit of research - it might just HELP.
I'm not sure "English" is the right word. RAF aircrew were not just English. They came from all over the UK and all over the globe.

Love the heel clicking. That has to come back.
Implying it ever went out of fashion.
It's actually rather English, don't you know. As are the German's uniforms and salutes. Curious. .
Love how the German "sergeant" gives his superiors a crisp British salute at 7:30.
yea really, I caught that also.
that was standard wehrmacht saluting protocol. Render the normal military salute whilst wearing headgear like a hat or helmet, and render the hitler salute when not wearing headgear. If you were holding something then just stand straight.
@@yeetntnt2903 The German army NEVER did the British open palm salute as shown in this video. A German soldier would execute a salute essentially identical to an American soldier.
"You understand, sergeant, I know everything."
"Ah. Well, then you don't need anything from me."
The US put out a film like this in 1944 , strikingly similar. It was called Resisting Enemy Interrogation
Right - it’s on my channel😄
@@ZenosWarbirds no , I mean the story line and characters are similar.
8:58 you have what? It sounds like ‘computer record’. Oh, well.
wow the jerries have english accents. how ridicules
Note how he does not look at the camera directly because he is reading from a script displayed at the side of the camera.
The film is almost exactly like the one that the US made a couple of years later. th-cam.com/video/2Igyo1DdkrI/w-d-xo.html
"I say nothing, Fritz!"
" As long as you tell me everything, when you say nothing, it'll be fine, Tommy!"
Who plays the seated German officer at 4:47? I've seen him in a new wartime training films, but I can't find anything on IMDb.
No more brother wars.
do you have the one about escaping the enemy?
30:03 What a handsome fellow 😍
I adhere to these rules even in casual conversation.
"Nice weather we are having!"
"Edward Azimuth Harbottle, Communications Engineer First Class, 10 zed 20 stroke 12!", in my best Sydney Greenstreet voice. The filthy spies won't catch ME !
That's all well and good but if I survive getting shot down I'm taking the free booze
I would hope the men had enough intelligence not to fall for such tricks, especially the hidden microphone. I'm sure some things happened under Nazi interrogation though, so maybe this film helped them. TY-good post.
Having a hidden microphone in the midst of POWs was not farfetched in the least! Apparently you aren’t aware that the British POW camps all had hidden microphones, as were several generals who were held at an English country manor which was bugged from stem to stern, and that even the trees and foliage were bugged. In their state of extreme comfort, the officers spilled a whole lot of information about the Jewish genocide, important military strategy and other secret information, and long discussions about Hitler’s poor leadership and psychology. The contents of the tapes were translated and typed up every night by German refugees who had fled to England for safety, giving a fascinating and completely damning portrait of the cold blooded psychopathology of the German regime and military. The generals also roundly condemned the laxness of the English military for allowing such a “prison” to be in place, and wrote their families that their captors were fools….just goes to show you!
@@voraciousreader3341 Re-read my comment- I never said there were no mics or that the British didn't know about them. "Apparently" I didn't know about the hidden mics?-LOL I'm not some punk that has watched a few videos to learn- I started at age 6, when I started asking my Marine father about the 3 wars in which he fought. (I'm also a Marine-female). The 'Manor' incident you refer to is common knowledge to any serious 'student' of WWII, especially to us Anglophiles. The Generals also discussed Hitler's 'super weapon', the Vengeance Rockets, V-1 & V-2, which set the British into action to insert spies at the sites where the rockets were built and then bombing them them (see Peenemunde V-1 site). Many films and accounts have shown the idiot Generals spilling the beans. Anyway, keep learning before the whining libs have all history erased (or blurred, as in lots of original live footage).
@@voraciousreader3341 I left a reply earlier- not sure where it went, but I am well aware of the British incident with the Nazi officers being recorded. It's common knowledge and in several films. I am not an armchair warrior- I'm a female Marine, like my father & son, and though Marines never fought Nazis, my Dad traded info with Army friends plus a lot of artifacts from the Pacific Theater. Also, being an Anglophile, I love learning about the British WWII history. Pity we couldn't have cloned Churchill and eliminated Monty, MacArthur and a few more. Good day! :)
Interesting and informative.
Great Stuff
Did they really do all that heel clicking?
Dam Liar hes drinks
That’s more Sam Browne shoulder straps in one film than were in evidence on the entire German army in WW2 👍🏻
First casualty is the truth and here is the evidence. Jolly good show old boy.
Histerical how the german uniforms and symbols are so badly represented.
Regulations of the time
This seems more like British propaganda to make their own men believe that being a POW was a nice adventure, so that they should not have any fear...
No, this is how prisoners where interrogated . A lot more information was found then any other way .
The point was that, beatings or torture notwithstanding, it's still shocking easy to accidentally blab away sensitive information that the enemy can use.
this is what its like being captured by the enemy? served beer and spoken to politely? no beatings or torture? are you suuuure? so when military men aren't brutally killing eachother on the battlefield they are respecting each other's humanity? oh of course..
yeah but wouldn't the world be a better place if it was...
Neo Hungarian Barbarian oh right so I'm sure prisoners never get beaten or killed, tortured for information.. and everyone gets beer... you ever heard of Guantanamo bay dipshit?
Kit Ingoldby oh yes I'll tell you all my countries secrets and put my brother's lives in danger because you served me a beer... more like I'll tell you anything if you stop torturing me..
This is about how the Germans generally treated captured English aircrew. The Germans and the English generally treated each other's captured aircrew in compliance with the terms of the Geneva Convention(s).

The officers of HMS Sikh were interrogated by a famous Italian civilian actor.
Well....it propaganda indeed,looks more like being captured as a VIP,not a POW....-_-
I think this is just somewhere they would bring newly captured prisoners to interrogate them. Then they would send them to an actual POW camp when intelligence had no further use for them.
