An absolutely effective choice capable of convincingly reconstructing the humanity of the protagonist (who really existed). (SNIP) Bradley James, already known for his role in the TV series Merlin, brilliantly impersonates a charismatic Felix Sparks. (SNIP) the story of Captain Sparks has exceeded expectations.

If you, too, are an avid World War II enthusiast, we strongly recommend you to watch The Liberator. (SNIP) I think the only bad side of this series is that it consists of only 4 episodes. The Liberator cast includes Bradley James, Let us remind you that Bradley James brought Captain Sparks to life, for those who watch Merlin.

Renegade Pop Culture: Animaniacs Are Back! Plus Reviews of Blood of Zeus, The Liberator, and the Mighty Ones!
The Liberator is a fascinating animated war drama miniseries based on the novel of the same name by Alex Kershaw. (SNIP) As somewhat of a history buff, I was invested enough in the story of Felix L. Sparks and his comrades in the 157th Infantry Regiment during World War II. (SNIP) there are already so many depictions of this era in media that it gets harder each time to cover new ground. Fortunately, I can confidently recommend this based on its own merits.”
