And some of them are genuinely pursuing peace. The ‘baddies’, we’re being told, are just humans after all. Meanwhile, Rufus Sewell’s ObergruppenFührer is balancing life as a devoted family man with getting regularly shot up by revolutionaries, while the Japanese trade minister is trying to keep a lid on the Cold War that’s simmering between the Japanese and the Nazis.

In the neutral zone, Juliana and Joe continue their dance of mutual suspicion and attraction.
