Encyclopedia Asthmatica, Vol. 2 [DVD]

Originally broadcast between 1978 and 1981 on London's ITV, the period drama Enemy at the Door unfurled on the Isle of Guernsey during the German Occupation of World War II, and dealt with the delicate power struggle between the Channel Islanders and the presiding Nazis. Characters included the surprisingly genial S.S. offier Dieter Richter (Alfred Burke); his nasty, sadistic fellow officer Klaus Reinicke (Simon Cadell); local physician Philip Martell (Bernard Horsfall) and the leader of the local resistance, Clive Martel (Anthony Head). This set contains the complete Series Two of Enemy at the Door, with all thirteen episodes. This particular series takes place three years into World War II; Richter tries to establish positive relationships with the citizenry (despite the necessity of 'cracking down') but his efforts are thwarted by the imprisonment of Dr. Martel, which stirs up bad vibes among the populace. Meanwhile, Reinecke continually frustrates Richter with his overbearing attempts to curry favor in the Reichstag.
