Everyone knows the Nazis fled to South America. It is one of the great stories of the twentieth century, told and retold for more than sixty years. But what most people don’t know is that they also came here - to Britain. To our towns, our villages and our streets. Living in plain sight they took on jobs such teaching in schools, and working on the railways. And the very state that had just fought a war to defeat them turned a blind eye, or more often than that, protected them. But why?
In this extraordinary three-part series that takes in Britain, Israel, Germany and Austria, Ross Kemp lifts the lid on one of the most shocking secrets in British history: how mass murderers became our neighbours, how the establishment looked the other way, and how the truth was buried for decades. It is a story that will change the way Britain sees itself. The Nazis didn’t just live in South America. They lived next door.
