One of them was the focus of today's film - Fitzroy Maclean. In this video we follow his career from a diplomat in Moscow, through to serving with the SAS in North Africa and later as Churchill's man embedded with Tito in Yugoslavia. It's fascinating stuff. Maclean is even said to have been the role model for Ian Fleming's James Bond.
