This week, Rommel advances towards Egypt as the British are woefully unprepared for such an attack. Meanwhile, the months of planning for campaigns in Eastern and South-Eastern Europe seems to come to an end as planning turns into doing.

We shot this episode as the last one of our February shooting session, when we were still blissfully unaware of the impact that the coronavirus would have on us. As of a few hours ago, Indy has made it back to his home in Sweden. He hired a car and then took the ferry - which was the only option that was left to leave Bavaria. We don't know when he'll be able to return to Germany, but we shot enough to get us through April and May into mid-June.

I hope you're all doing well! Stay safe!

Cheers,
Joram
