The drama at 263 Prinsengracht, but this time not from the well-known diary, but from the story of Miep Gies and her husband, two people who braved many dangers to offer protection and help to the persecuted Jews in Amsterdam.

Saw the film on the National Geographic Chanel which surprised me somewhat, but that does not detract from the appreciation for this work. The tension, the drama and also the emotionality associated with the event are conveyed very well and this without real top actors, crowd pullers.

I'm surprised more people haven't watched this series. Definitely worth it.

It irritates me enormously when Germans continuously speak English in war films or series. And then the Dutch too, although that is a little less disturbing, I don't think a word of Dutch is spoken. For me that is the main reason to zap away.

There is little wrong with the series in itself, but I would much rather watch that old movie Soldaat van Oranje, where the Krauts just speak German, and occasionally even Dutch.

The series will nevertheless be well watched, but unfortunately not by me.
