Polish broadcaster TVP is preparing to debut its Second World War historical thriller series The Bay Of Spies, following completion of production.

The 9 x 45-minute Polish-language series (known locally as Zatoka Szpiegów), which is based on a true story, is set in 1940s Gdynia and has been directed by Michał Rogalski, with Poland’s Akson Studio producing.

The show follows a young Nazi Abwehr officer, who discovers that his real father was Polish and uses the information to become a spy for the Allies with the code name ‘Got’.

With the threat of his cover being blown at any moment, entangled in relationships with three different women, and suspected of treason by the Germans and the Poles, he must break all the rules and completely change his value system to survive.

The series will air on TVP on 7 January.
