Kessler

1981 BBC Series. The six-part serial is a sequel to the Second World War drama Secret Army, picking up the hunt for a character from that series decades later.

The story begins when a self-serving Belgian journalist, Hugo Van Eyck broadcasts a documentary about Nazi war criminals and along with West German intelligence operative Richard Bauer investigates the whereabouts of the former Chief of Gestapo and SS of Belgium, Standartenfuhrer Ludwig Kessler (played by Clifford Rose). Kessler is part of an organisation called the Kameradenwerk which is formed of Nazis on the run, trying to evade capture for their war crimes.
