The Lost Women Spies
Wartime Productions' latest WW2 documentary involvement is coming soon in 2024 featuring a collection of our vehicles, props, and supporting artists.
The Lost Women Spies (6 x 50’), is a “gripping, poignant docu-drama series about the fate of British female spies in WWII.”
In 2000, boxes containing top-secret files were found in a garden shed in Cornwall. They detailed the lives and code names of Britain’s first female agents sent to the front line during the war. The British spymistress, Vera Atkins, had committed treason by keeping the papers, but she had a reason...

Wartime Productions will be joining forces once again with English Heritage this May Bank holiday weekend Sun 05 May - Mon 06 May 2024
Embrace the atmosphere and action of the 1940s as our celebrated WWII Weekend returns for another bank holiday spectacular.
Witness a tense, action-packed battle between the allied and German forces featuring striking pyrotechnics and real-life vintage army vehicles. Experience life during wartime Britain, while you set the kids off to play at hands-on activities including the Sergeant’s infamous assault course.
Join us for an action-packed bank holiday weekend as we propel you back to wartime Britain. Audley End will once again become a James Bond-style school for spies and soldiers, rocked with the sights and sounds of gunfire, unarmed combat, and top-secret training, just as 80 years ago.
Meet recreated British and Polish Special Operations soldiers at our exciting Second World War re-enactment. Listen to stories of covert commando raids, dig for victory with the Land Girls, and bring your dancing shoes to enjoy the 1940s tunes. Plus, daring youngsters can test their mettle on the obstacle course.
Events climax each afternoon as our Polish agents test their tactical skills by taking on the 'enemy' in our explosive battle display. Armored vehicles and machine guns will come together for our amazing historical recreation. Will the training of our secret agents enable them to seize and destroy a vital enemy-held bridge? Assemble your troops and join us for an action-packed day out in history to find out!

Great end to the day at another fantastic Victory Show. #victoryshow victoryshow #ww2history #ww2 #history
Wartime Productions was initially set up as the professional film & TV service of the 21. Infanterie WW2 Historical society and has since grown into a WW2 production network of some of the best UK based WW2 production suppliers. Run by myself (David Forde) I also organise the 21. Infanterie WW2 Historical society.
Over the past decade, our services have been called upon to partake in numerous film and TV productions mainly as extras but also some prestigious productions along with even music videos and TV advertisements.
One of our biggest problems we encountered was while we always enjoyed the film and TV involvement our society wasn't really set up to manage anything other than one or two productions per year as we already had a full calendar of events and activities planned for the membership.
Back in 2017, I decided to set up a professional arm to our society dedicated to coping with the demand for our services and this year 2018 Wartime Productions was launched.
I have been involved with WW2 living history since 2007 and since 2014 run my own society which I set up with a close network of associates within the UK. A Mark of our success is our membership which now stands at over 30+ members. Our society has grown in many departments from vehicle numbers to a vast array of WW2 related props and equipment. We enjoy having a good reputation within the UK living history scene and this is reflected in our continued involvement with English Heritage and a number of local authorities for whom we work with over the summer months providing fantastic WW2 services.
Our society is based around a solid structure with key members in all departments who manages all aspects of historical accuracy and research. Over the past decade, we have built up a unique network of historical enthusiasts and professionals within the UK and Europe.
