Witness History: Archive 2012 - The M Room

How exiles from the Nazis helped British intelligence listen in on German prisoners-of-war.

Ninety-three-year-old Fritz Lustig, a refugee from Nazi Germany, is one of the last surviving members of the secret "M Room".

He helped glean vital information from German POWs about Hitler's war machine.
