"The secret agents who set Europe ablaze"

Just when you thought you knew everything about WWII, Secret War uncovers more incredible stories that exist under the radar. As bombs were dropped from planes, missiles were launched and tanks were deployed all over the world, another kind of war was being waged by the Allies: a secret war -- a war of espionage.
This secret war involved countless acts of espionage, courage, ruthlessness, double dealing and betrayal. It featured secret agents risking everything, working undercover on the continent to turn the tide against the Nazis, never knowing who, at any time, they could trust. Some became double agents playing both sides for the thrill of the danger, others did it just to stay alive. Always these extraordinary characters lived their lives on the edge. Secret War tells their amazing stories.
Less than a year after World War II began, Hitler's armies occupied much of mainland Europe-and the island nation of Great Britain stood alone. Rather than wait for the expected German invasion, Prime Minister Winston Churchill decided to hit back at the Nazis any way he could. In the summer of 1940, he set up a secret new organization called the Special Operations Executive, or SOE, and gave it a simple mission: "set Europe ablaze."
SECRET WAR goes inside Churchill's secret army, to a dangerous world of agents, double agents, and even triple agents. In 13 episodes, it tells the story of SOE agents and other clandestine warriors who went behind enemy lines to conduct intelligence-gathering, sabotage, and assassination. Sometimes the operations were spectacularly successful, at other times inexplicably inept. But together, the efforts of these intrepid men and women helped save thousands of lives, liberate Europe, and turn the tide of World War II.

10)  The French Triple Agent
Unshrouding the mystery of WWII espionage. Story of a suspected triple agent who might have worked for the British and Germans in WWII. Henri Dericourt went from quiet beginnings in a small hamlet northeast of Paris, to working his way to the center of one of the most consequential clandestine operations in WW2. Operation Cockade was meant to unsettle the Nazis, but Dericourt threw a spanner in the works.
How did the Nazis manage to penetrate so thoroughly the French Resistance networks working with the Special Operations Executive? Why were so many British agents captured as soon as they landed in France? Part of the answer may lie in the activities of a mysterious agent who was working with the Germans and the British--and may have been reporting to a third party as well.
After the war, Dericourt returned to France and resumed his pre-war job as a pilot. Following victory in Europe, France began investigating the collaborators who had worked with the Germans. Questions were asked about the collapse of the 'Prosper' network and Derincourt role in the affair. He was arrested by the French authorities in November 1946 and charged with supplying intelligence to the enemy.
