Wish Me Luck: Series 1
As Seen on Public Television
The history of a country under siege is the backdrop for this story of Liz Grainger, an Englishwoman, who is being recruited by a British intelligence agency during the height of World War II. Since the Armed Forces have been reduced by German counter-intelligence activities, it has become imperative to gather civilian volunteers to work with the Resistance forces in occupied France.
The agents are trained and deployed into service by Colonel James Cadogan, who will use any means necessary to meet the primary needs of his organization: to transmit vital information on German activities to the intelligence network in London.
Liz, in her role with the Resistance, finds espionage, romance, intrigue, suspense and betrayal all intertwined with the ultimate goal - the liberation of France from Germany.

Wish Me Luck: Series 1 - karob
Wish Me Luck is one of the few instances in which, after viewing the first couple of episodes, I rushed to cancel my request for the rest of the series. The basic story, of people being prepared for work behind enemy lines, is engaging, but the execution of the story is tediously flat. The characters seem barely real and, given the premises of the dangers of war, the movie has practically no tension.
