About this show

Prisoners of War is the gripping ten-part drama on which the American series Homeland is based. When three Israeli Defence Force reservists are captured behind enemy lines in Lebanon their fate is unknown, that is until seventeen years later, when they mysteriously return - two of them alive, the third in a coffin. The story of their time in captivity unfolds as they attempt to reintegrate into society; trying to cope with the pressures of being reintroduced to their families and friends, as well as handling the national hero status being thrust upon them via the public limelight. The gripping plot unravels through three time plains; before capture, life in captivity and present day, which all intertwine to reveal dark secrets about their life in captivity.

Very very boring. Look out of your window, whatever you see will be more interesting than this. I am astonished that anyone could give it more than one star.

A finely balanced story with sympathies going to everybody involved. The characters are all highly credible and appear to show true pain in their faces. It's not easy to say anything about the story without giving things away but as soon as the series finishes you wonder why Google Play don't have series 2 up yet!

A great series for fans of Homeland BUT very let down by poor quality of the picture of the download. It is available as a bluray so surprised the Google Play file is not in HD. But series 2 is in HD and the story is gripping! Is there series 3?
