To John:  I'm going to leave your edit because it fits, but I don't actually think they get to the end of the war in the programme.  In fact, I've always be struck by how ''slowly'' they move through time; for example the Americans don't join until series six.  Just a question, do you infer from some of the dialogue that they've gotten to the end of WWII?  I confess I've missed it.  [[User:Aleta Curry|Aleta Curry]] 21:59, 29 October 2010 (UTC)

What end of the War?

To John: I'm going to leave your edit because it fits, but I don't actually think they get to the end of the war in the programme. In fact, I've always be struck by how slowly they move through time; for example the Americans don't join until series six. Just a question, do you infer from some of the dialogue that they've gotten to the end of WWII? I confess I've missed it. Aleta Curry 21:59, 29 October 2010 (UTC)
