I have watched just the first episode of this series on Netflix and already feel comfortable recommending it. It uses a blend of reality TV game show and WWII documentary film to tell the story of Secret Agents who operated behind enemy lines to disrupt Hilter's advance until the allies could prepare and mount their ultimate offensive to destroy Nazi Germany. I'm note sure the modern participants would be called contestants. I haven't heard mention of any prizes for suffering the tests taken from WWII-era manuals. It is a fascinating tale well told
