The Great Escape is an action-adventure stealth video game based on the 1963 movie of the same name. It was developed by UK-based developer Pivotal Games. The game was released on Xbox, Microsoft Windows and PlayStation 2.
There are four playable characters, from the film, each with a special ability.
MacDonald (Gordon Jackson's character), who can speak German to pass himself off as a guard.
Hendley (James Garner's character), who can pick pockets to get papers, keys, etc, and must also act as guide/escort to Blythe (Donald Pleasence's character)
Hilts (Steve McQueen's character), who can pick locks to get into buildings
Sedgwick (James Coburn's character), who can fix mechanical devices.

One of the elements that makes John Sturges' The Great Escape a classic film are that the characters are not two-dimensional caricatures, but have a flip-side to each of them that challenges them throughout the story.
Today, I'm exploring the SBO, the Tunnel King, the Forger, the Scrounger, the Cooler King and more, to find out more about their characters than simply their titles.

The True Story Of The Great Escape | WW2 Prisoners of War | Timeline

The notorious Stalag Luft III was a specially built prison camp on Germany's border with Poland. It held 10,000 Allied airmen of all nationalities during the Second World War, and was designed to be escape proof. But for Allied prisoners of war, it was their duty to escape. This fascinating and poignant documentary tells the story of the brave and resourceful men who organised the historic Great Escape and paid a tragic price for carrying out their duty. While previous escape attempts had proved unsuccessful, the most severe punishment for recaptured prisoners was usually a spell in solitary confinement. But this time it was different. When Hitler learned of the audacious large-scale break out, he was so furious that he ordered the cold-blooded murder of 50 escapees. |
