Camp X is a two-part documentary from Canada, about Camp X, where the first spies for Britain and America were trained during the Second World War. Seeing this on the History Channel, I quickly set it to record in order to sit and watch it through. Something that was highly secretive, and wasn't well known about. Something that isn't really spoke or talked about within England, I was definitely excited to learn more about Camp X.
First of all, I think that splitting the documentary into two parts was a good idea. Instead of trying to force so much information into one 45 minute documentary, we were given an hour and a half of information, and the first part even ended in a cliff hanger that made me for sure want to watch on. Even if I wasn't already interested in watching it, the cliff hanger for sure caught my attention more than it already was.
The information in this is precise. It's lengthy, and has all the details, but it is still precise. The documentary doesn't give us more than we need to know, and keeps things simple. Although a little infuriating for such simple terms to be used, and then explained, this is really well done. Anyone watching it can listen to the information, understand what this information is and what it means, and it allows much more understanding. People are more likely to watch this.
I don't think there is anything I would change about this documentary, and I definitely recommend it to anyone with interest in the subject matter. This was really well rounded, with accurate information, and a clear and precise learning method. Everything a documentary should be.
