Plot Synopsis
Set in the world of WWII espionage and covert operations, X COMPANY is a one-hour drama series that follows the stories of five highly skilled young recruits -- Canadian, American and British -- torn from their ordinary lives to train as agents in Camp X: an ultra-secret training facility on the shores of Lake Ontario. Inspired by remarkable true stories, this series about the origin of spycraft opens with the agents parachuting behind enemy lines, where they're fair game for torture and execution. From elegant hotels to hell-holes in the field, it's one risky operation after another, masterminded by the brains of Camp X. Sabotage, bombs, arming and training guerrilla fighters, rescue operations, deception campaigns, even assassination: we feel, up close and intimate, both the adrenaline joyride and the dirty-hands nightmare as shining ideals collide with the emotional realities of fighting a war where no rules apply. Ovation aired the U.S. premiere of X COMPANY on Monday, February 19, 2018 at 10pm ET. Ovation aired the U.S. premiere of the second season of X COMPANY on Monday, May 7, 2018 at 10pm ET/7pm PT. In the season opener, "Creon Via London," the team reels from the disaster of losing Alfred to the Nazis. Making matters worse, Aurora, Neil, Tom, and Harry have been cut off from all communications with Camp X. The third and final season of X COMPANY had its U.S. premiere on Monday, August 20, 2018 at 10pm ET/7pm PT on Ovation. Season 3 sees the team of Camp X operatives press forward to the finish line on their last mission together, hoping to deliver a blow to the enemy that could change the course of the war. After the shocking and disillusioning losses of Tom and those who fell at Dieppe, it's harder than ever to keep the faith. The rules of human decency are stretched to a point where the difference between good and evil becomes more difficult to discern. The team is faced with the brutal truth that sometimes to fight the enemy, you must become the enemy. In the season opener, "Creon vs. Ixion," spymasters Sinclair and Faber face off: two world-class poker players gambling with human lives. Neil and Harry face a harrowing road trip to find Miri.
