00:02the second world war France is under Nazi control the French resistance fight back
00:10against the German invaders but they can't do it alone
00:18British secret agency the SOE send arms explosives and agents to help them set
00:26Nazi Europe ablaze but when the Gestapo cracked down on male agents Winston Churchill concocts an
00:37audacious solution he illegally sends certain agents who are banned from the front line women
00:46Vera this business of women agents you understand it must be kept secret at all times most secret
00:54our eyes only spy master Vera Atkins is charged with finding women are you prepared to take the fight to
01:03the Nazis behind enemy lines in occupied France as a spy training them good shot yes sir and sending
01:15these agents behind enemy lines are you ready the Nazis won't know what hit them
01:30but after the war many are missing
01:37I'll send them off as long as I can go having sent these women to war Vera makes it her
01:43life's mission
01:44to find them a mission that takes her deep into Germany and the horrors of the Nazi regime
01:52what happened to her all three were taken to the crematorium building how do you know I'm watched
02:01but it's only after her death that Vera reveals the secrets behind her lost women spies
02:24in the early 1960s Tanya Sabo pays a surprise visit to a woman who was once her mother's boss a
02:34woman who during the Second World War was in charge of Britain's first ever female secret agents sent into
02:42combat many of whom wouldn't return I was in my 20s and I was looking forward very much to meeting
02:53Vera Atkins
02:57a little trembling it as well because she's was known to be fierce this very severe lady the Kensington lady
03:12Vera would not have been at all concerned about how I felt and certainly in no way whatsoever
03:24did I resent Vera sending my mother off to such dangerous places on her secret missions
03:39when war is there you do what you have to do
03:46your mother when I met her was 22
03:53recently bereaved
04:10Vera did not easily open up to anybody I was very aware of her decided coldness at times and then
04:24there would be these little chinks and she would open up
04:30I always drove them to the aerodromes
04:36always seemed to be a summer's day
04:40I saw them off
04:47when the war ended
04:48and they didn't come back and they didn't come back I went looking for them all
04:59missing presumed dead such a terrible epitaph for anyone
05:08the admission is surprising
05:12very few people outside of Vera Atkins in a circle knew that after the war she'd gone looking for her
05:19missing agents
05:31for Vera the most important thing that she could do was to find out exactly what had happened to her
05:39agents
05:40long after the war ends
05:42long after the war ends Vera still keeps hold of files on her former agents
05:47locked away like all her secrets
05:57in later life she moves from Kensington to Winchelsea in Sussex
06:02taking her closely guarded files with her
06:07on the 24th of June 2000 Vera Atkins dies
06:12she announces through her sister-in-law that her treasured and secret files have all moved to her sister-in
06:20-law's shed in Cornwall
06:25journalists begin investigating the files
06:29what is quite clear is that after the war when SOE was being closed down basically everything that had happened
06:36that SOE had been involved in
06:37was going to be just completely hidden
06:41the British government destroyed many files relating to their women agents
06:47but Vera's survive
06:50I mean to be honest with you she shouldn't have kept them
06:53that was illegal even then to keep official documents especially secret ones
06:58but she wanted the story to be told by someone at some point
07:06the files contain the revelation that after the war Vera went looking for all her lost women spies
07:15she definitely felt responsibility to her female agents
07:19and that must have completely haunted Vera for the rest of her life
07:26in the files are page after page detailing the lives
07:31and code names of Britain's first ever female agents
07:35sent to the front line
07:38one agent in particular catches the eye
07:42Noen Yat Khan's training record is terrible
07:45she was not seen as a competent agent at all
07:49and as a result she was not recommended to go to France by her instructors
07:53but Vera Atkins sent her anyway
07:58Why did Vera send Noor behind enemy lines against the advice of others?
08:05All Vera's private files suddenly become available
08:11Private files that reveal the true story of Britain's lost women spies
08:20But also the shocking story of the one woman whose job it was to send them into battle
08:25Vera Atkins
08:33It's a story that begins in France in 1940
08:44Nazi Germany has invaded and taken over the north of the country
08:51And Hitler has set his sights on Britain as the next target for Nazi invasion
09:03In France, an underground force of French fighters called the resistance
09:08tried to stop the Nazis at any point they can
09:12They commit acts of sabotage
09:15They attack soldiers
09:17And to do this they need help
09:20They need organisational skills
09:23They need weapons
09:24And they need money
09:26They need all the help they can get to stop the Nazi threat
09:31This support is provided by a British secret agency
09:35Known as the Special Operations Executive
09:38Or SOE
09:42SOE was sanctioned by Prime Minister Winston Churchill
09:46As early as 1940
09:48It was unofficially known as the Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare
09:57And the whole idea was literally to set Europe ablaze
10:04And disrupt the Nazi war machine
10:08Churchill wants to frustrate the Nazis in France
10:13And also help the resistance to launch mass sabotage attacks
10:17Against the Germans ahead of D-Day
10:22Whenever the Allied invasion of France will take place
10:31The department responsible for this is SOE's France, or F, section
10:37Head of F section is Maurice Buckmaster
10:45He's an unlikely choice for a top job at SOE
10:51Buckmaster served in military intelligence
10:55But he knows nothing about sabotage
10:58Sir
11:00He had no experience whatsoever in training people for guerrilla warfare
11:05Schedule a supply drop to Acrobat for the 22nd
11:10Yes, sir
11:13Thank you
11:14That will be all
11:17But Buckmaster, or Bucks as he was known
11:20Actually spent his earlier career
11:22As the head of marketing effectively
11:25For the Ford Motor Company
11:27Based in France
11:28He understood French culture
11:31He spoke French perfectly
11:33It's this knowledge of France
11:34That gets him the job in F section
11:38Buckmaster's team
11:39Is run out of Baker Street
11:41In central London
11:42And coordinates resistance operations in France
11:46They break the resistance efforts into networks
11:50Or circuits
11:52France was divided into circuits
11:56Circuits of agents and operatives behind enemy lines
12:00And they were largely kept separate
12:02Just in case one was compromised
12:04They wouldn't all go down
12:06In the French capital, Paris
12:08Is the largest and most important SOE circuit
12:12The Prosper Circuit
12:16Each circuit is led on the ground by an organiser
12:20Now they're in charge of contacting London
12:22To send over all the vital equipment
12:25For the acts of sabotage
12:26For the resistance and the agents on the ground in France
12:31And the need for more agents to feed the circuits
12:33Is always growing
12:37Especially wireless operators
12:42Sir
12:43A message from Prosper requesting another wireless operator
12:54But it is dangerous work
12:56And by the beginning of 1942
12:59It's the most dangerous it's ever been
13:10In France, the Nazis go into overdrive to break the networks
13:15They very much believed that resistance was all male
13:18So men of military age
13:21Wandering around the streets
13:23Would be stopped
13:24Their papers would be checked
13:26And they may be taken away for questioning
13:28Or interrogation
13:32Wireless operators
13:33Who communicate with SOE
13:35From bulky transmitters
13:36Are especially in danger
13:40It's really one of the most dangerous areas in the field
13:44The German listening devices can tune in
13:48And they hear the tap-tap
13:50They can hear these going out on the radio waves
13:52Within minutes they can trace
13:54Where this signal is being sent out from
13:57The average life expectancy was six weeks
14:02The circuits are in crisis
14:06So head of SOE
14:08Brigadier Colin Gubbins
14:09The man in charge of all SOE sections
14:13Proposes a controversial idea
14:17Deploying women agents
14:20Women could blend more easily into French life
14:23Because women were still very much out there in society
14:27Whereas men are pretty much disappearing off the streets
14:30But there's a problem
14:34Sending women agents to war
14:36In combat roles
14:38Is illegal under British law
14:40And unlike men
14:42These women would have no protection
14:45Under international law
14:47In April 1942
14:49At a meeting of the British War Cabinet
14:52The Prime Minister Winston Churchill
14:54Secretly nods through Gubbins' suggestion
14:59Any woman sent into combat
15:01Goes unclassified
15:03And without legal cover
15:05Buckmaster works with his second-in-command
15:09Nicholas Boddington
15:10To get a plan into action
15:13All we have on our books
15:15Are men
15:16I know
15:20Boddington is 38 years old
15:23He's formerly worked for Reuters newspaper
15:26So he's travelled across Europe
15:28He's a little bit unorthodox in himself
15:31A bit of a hustler
15:33But he was a kind of man
15:35Who could get things done
15:36And get things moving as quickly as possible
15:39Just the kind of man he needs
15:42Especially as the female agents
15:44Are required immediately
15:47But there's another challenge
15:50If it had come out that women were being sent
15:53Then there could have been a huge public uproar
15:56And they'd have been accused of
15:58Sending young women out to their death
16:00Their necks were on the line too
16:02So from that point of view
16:04It was very important
16:06That they kept it quiet
16:08Even within the SOE itself
16:11Very few people are allowed to know
16:14That women are being deployed
16:16Of course Buckmaster knows it
16:18And one of the other people who knows it
16:20Is Vera Atkins
16:23Here
16:24Vera's file
16:26How about Vera
16:27To handle the whole thing
16:29Vera Atkins
16:30Is Buckmaster's former secretary
16:32And knows full well
16:34The pressure he
16:35And the resistance
16:36Are under
16:38Vera
16:40Vera Atkins
16:42She's volunteered
16:44Vera Atkins was born in Romania
16:46And this makes
16:47Her position
16:49Very difficult
16:50Because Romania
16:51Is an ally of Nazi Germany
16:52This makes her an enemy alien
16:55And she has to keep this secret
16:57The only other person
16:58Who knows about her national heritage
17:01Is Buckmaster himself
17:06Buck, she's your secretary
17:09Junior staff officer now
17:11She's not one of us
17:16There are certain things
17:19Omitted from her file
17:22Work she's done before the war
17:24For MI6
17:25Work on the continent
17:28During the 1930s
17:31Vera had actually worked undercover
17:33In Romania
17:34In the Palace Oil Company
17:37As an interpreter
17:38A role which saw her travel across Europe
17:42At this time
17:44She's actually passing information to MI6
17:47But Vera is incredibly mysterious
17:51About her past
17:52She is, after all
17:53An enemy alien
17:55How far can they trust her?
17:58Please
17:59Come in
18:00Yes, sir
18:02Nicholas
18:03Vera
18:05I hear you've volunteered
18:06For a promotion
18:08I just want to do my bit
18:10Where I am useful
18:13Taking charge of a new division of F section
18:16You'll be a busy girl
18:18You think you're qualified?
18:20I do have some experience
18:22Before the war in Europe
18:28As an interpreter
18:29For an oil company
18:31Based in Romania
18:34Romania
18:36Allied to the Nazis
18:39I was employed to do a little more
18:41Than interpreting
18:43Besides, it would hardly be a new division
18:45Nicholas
18:46I would just be helping
18:48To share the load
18:49With some of you
18:51Overburdened men
18:54Now, now, Bodings
18:57Vera
18:58This
19:00Business of women agents
19:02Do you understand what you volunteer?
19:04Yes, sir
19:05I do
19:06And you understand
19:07It must be kept secret at all times?
19:09Most secret
19:10Our eyes only
19:14Very good
19:16Then you'll handle deploying these women to France
19:19Then you'll handle deploying these women to France
19:45Into combat
19:53Soe desperately need women agents in the field
19:57Particularly couriers and wireless operators
20:02In London
20:03Vera interviews a new candidate
20:07Noor Inayat Khan
20:10Yes, ma'am?
20:12Please
20:12Call me Miss Atkins
20:15Yes, Miss Atkins
20:17Noor Inayat Khan
20:18Has a very exotic background
20:19She's born in Moscow
20:21To an Indian father
20:22And an American mother
20:24And then they move to France
20:26And that is where she grows up
20:28Noor is descended from royalty in India
20:31Her father is a Sufi
20:34And he's a Sufi preacher
20:36And Sufism is a branch of Islam
20:39That believes in music and meditation
20:42So they grow up in this very open house
20:45Which is full of people
20:47And he taught Noor
20:48That you never tell a lie
20:51You were educated at the Sabon
20:53In Paris
20:55Yes, Miss Atkins
20:59And afterwards became an author
21:03Yes
21:03I write short stories
21:05For children
21:07I see
21:11You arrived in England in 1940
21:16Yes
21:17After the Nazis invaded
21:20We...
21:21My family
21:22Left France
21:23We escaped here
21:25I see you joined the Women's Auxiliary Air Force
21:28Yes, but I want to work in intelligence
21:33And you currently serve as a wireless operator
21:38Yes, Miss Atkins
21:40Vera knows that the Prosper Circuit
21:43Is especially pushing for another to join its ranks
21:48Noor is a trained wireless operator
21:51Who is very good at it
21:52The other thing, of course, is that she speaks fluent French
21:56Now the SOE were looking out for people with language skills
22:00So they could infiltrate them into occupied areas
22:04Noor fits the bill perfectly
22:07Noor, do you want to make a difference in this war?
22:12Yes, Miss Atkins
22:14Are you prepared to take the fight to the Nazis?
22:18Yes
22:19Behind enemy lines in occupied France?
22:25As a spy
22:29Yes
22:30Miss Atkins
22:34There are certain dangers
22:37As a woman, you wouldn't be covered by the Geneva Convention
22:41If you're called
22:43The chances of survival are slim
22:46Do you understand?
22:52Yes
22:53I do
22:54Miss Atkins
22:57You will need to sign the Official Secrets Act
23:00And your training will begin shortly
23:04Welcome to SOE
23:05From now on
23:06I'll be looking after you
23:14In the Surrey and Hampshire countryside
23:17Noor and the latest new recruits
23:19Begin a crash course in spycraft
23:23Their days start with an early morning run
23:26Followed by lessons designed to teach the new recruits
23:29How to blend in to occupied France
23:34Agents were taught how to live in the country that they were going to
23:37And they were taught tiny intricacies
23:40So in a cafe, put the milk in the tea last and not first
23:45Which is the opposite of what you would do in England, for example
23:49Basic things, like when you cross the street
23:51You know, an English person is going to look that way first
23:54You know, make sure that you look left first when you're in France
23:57Otherwise, it's a dead giveaway
24:00Any slip-up could identify them as English and blow their cover
24:06Agents learned things like silent killing
24:08Which was how to kill with your bare hands
24:10Close combat using a variety of knives and daggers
24:13And they also learned shooting
24:16Some of the agents fared very well
24:18But Noor found this stuff really unnatural
24:21It didn't come easily to her
24:23And her report actually said that she was terrified of the weapons
24:26And was very uncomfortable using them
24:36Next, Noor is given an extensive course on wireless operating
24:42Training how to transmit messages in Morse code
24:45Over the bulky radio set
24:49Noor was already a good radio operator
24:51A little more training would make her even better at sending Morse code
24:56But it wasn't just plain Morse code
24:59There was a code added on top of it
25:01Which was difficult to crack
25:02But also very difficult to learn
25:06So she would have spent hour after hour after hour
25:09Learning this Morse code
25:13Another challenge is that
25:15As the child of Sufis
25:17Noor had been brought up never to lie
25:21This becomes clear
25:23On training exercises in the English countryside
25:27Where the mission is to drop secret messages in safe houses
25:32Known as letterboxes
25:35On a street patrolled by the local police
25:40Hey, you!
25:42What are you doing?
25:45I'm training to be a secret agent
25:47What?
25:49Here's my radio
25:50Would you like to see it?
25:52Noor will need to learn to lie
25:54To survive
26:02Miss Atkins
26:04Have you seen this?
26:06What is it?
26:07Noor Inayat Khan's latest training report
26:15If this girl's an agent
26:16I am Winston Churchill
26:18What do they know?
26:21Those idiot instructors
26:22Buffoons, all of them
26:27Here it says that
26:28Noor is progressing well
26:29In her wireless operating
26:33And a wireless operator
26:35Is what they need
26:36More than anything
26:44Idiot instructors
26:47And Vera has caused to trust her spies' intuition
26:50Once in the field
26:53One of her agents
26:54Already operating in the south of France
26:56Is excelling
27:02Odette Sansom
27:03A 30-year-old French woman
27:05Is assigned to the spindle circuit
27:07Operating near Annecy
27:09At the foot of the Alps
27:11She is absolutely determined
27:15To free her country
27:17France
27:18From Nazi occupation
27:20Odette plays a crucial role
27:23Acting as an SOE courier
27:26You sure?
27:27Yes
27:27For the circuit organiser
27:29Peter Churchill
27:30This is a hugely dangerous position
27:34To be in
27:35She is transporting the most important messages
27:39Across the circuit
27:40She is pivotal
27:42In the whole operation
27:44So she goes in person
27:47And passes messages
27:49From place to place
27:51In broad daylight
27:52Under the noses of the Germans
27:55She's always at risk
27:56Of being caught by the Nazis
27:58But so far
28:00Undetected
28:03Good luck
28:04In April 1943
28:06Peter Churchill's
28:08Call back to London
28:09On a secret flight
28:10For debriefing
28:11And in his absence
28:13Odette is approached
28:15By a man named
28:16Hugo Bleicher
28:18Hugo Bleicher
28:20Is working for the
28:22Abwehr
28:23For German military intelligence
28:25And he says to Odette
28:27That he'd like to defect
28:28To come and work for the Allies
28:32He wants Odette's help
28:34Getting him out of Nazi France
28:35To Britain
28:37So turning a high-ranking
28:39German intelligence officer
28:40Could be a major coup
28:42For SOE
28:44Radio London
28:47Update them on the situation
28:48And ask them
28:49How best they would like us to proceed
29:03Sir
29:04A message from Odette
29:07Spindle's circuit
29:09Have been approached
29:10By a German colonel
29:12What?
29:14The man
29:16An intelligence officer
29:17Is requesting
29:18An extraction to London
29:21The request
29:22Raises alarm bells
29:24At F section
29:24A directive
29:26From the very founding
29:27Of SOE
29:28States how agents
29:30Should respond
29:31In situations
29:32Like this
29:32If an agent
29:35Was approached
29:36By an enemy
29:38Who wanted to defect
29:39Not only were they
29:41To be completely ignored
29:42They were actually
29:44Meant to be liquidated
29:45Odette
29:47Could be compromised
29:48And if the Abwehr
29:50Begins making arrests
29:51They could destroy
29:53The entire circuit
29:56Send a reply
29:58Colonel
29:58Highly dangerous
30:01Odette
30:01Is to cut ties
30:02With Spindle
30:03Relocate
30:04And go into hiding
30:06Arrange drop zone
30:08For Churchill's return
30:09The SOE
30:10Decided to send
30:11Peter Churchill
30:12Back to France
30:13To try and figure out
30:14What's going on
30:14And try and rescue
30:15The situation
30:16As much as possible
30:23Spindle circuit
30:24Organiser
30:25Peter Churchill
30:26Is infiltrated
30:28Back behind
30:28Enemy lines
30:36Before leaving
30:38Britain
30:38F section
30:40Warns Peter
30:41Churchill
30:42That Odette

30:43Compromised

31:03Safe house
31:05The same

44:58Come
45:07Sir
45:09At F section
45:10Vera and
45:11Buckmaster
45:12Await news
45:13On
45:13Noor
45:15On the 24th of June
45:171943
45:18F section receives a message from Francis Suttle
45:21The organiser of the Prosper circuit
45:26What?
45:28On Suttle
45:30About Noor
45:32What?
45:33What is it?
45:34Noor was almost arrested at a letterbox Suttle claims was blown
45:37He says if Noor had gone there yesterday she'd have been met by the Gestapo
45:42He's searching a safe house
45:43But how could they have
45:49Little says he hasn't slept in days
45:54Something's gone wrong
45:58He's cancelling all letterboxes and passwords until London can confirm that the village postman
46:03Has recovered
46:06That meant that he pretty much cancels everything
46:08So the letterboxes, these safe houses, even the infiltration of agents into Paris
46:14He has to shut everything down
46:17He can't trust anybody
46:19Anybody could be a double agent
46:21Everybody is in danger
46:24If you aren't willing to accept my recommendation
46:28Please file this report under the death of the Prosper circuit
46:33The bloody hell is going on
46:36Noor has been dropped into the eye of a storm
46:39Did the Nazis simply get a lucky break?
46:41Or is there a double agent?
46:43What is going on?
46:45And until they work it out, no one is safe
46:51In Paris, Noor lays low in a safe house
46:55Trying her best to update London on the situation
47:00But after only eight days in France
47:03The Prosper circuit is in chaos
47:10The Gestapo are making a rest
47:12Safe houses are being raided
47:14Are they coming for us?
47:17You have to move
47:18Come on
47:20Come on
