A number of MI5 files were made public today including German WWII plans to invade Britain where Dover was to be the focal point of the invasion, but shock troops wearing enemy uniforms would have landed elsewhere along the south coast, as well as in Scotland and the south of Ireland. After the shock troops had captured the docks at Dover, the plan was for the main contingent of German troops to be brought over in barges and disembark at the docks.
Marina Lee, an agent in Norway was suspected of infiltrating the headquarters of General Claude Auchinleck in 1940 and getting hold of a key battle plan which she passed to the German commander.
British, French and Norwegian troops under General Auchinleck were later defeated at the Battle of Narvik and forced to withdraw from German-controlled Norway.
The man who wrote the screenplay for a James Bond film was himself suspected of being a communist agent, newly released Security Service files show.
