Eddie Chapman was a crook, a womaniser, an opportunist and a manipulator. But he was also an unlikely sort of World War II hero. He was motivated by a strange combination of self-interest, hunger for adventure, greed, bravery and patriotism. He was freed from prison and trained as a spy by the Germans, but he claimed he always intended to swap sides and spy for Britain. His handlers at MI5 were not so sure. Hence his codename: Agent Zigzag. Researching the BBC Two documentary Double Agent: The Eddie Chapman Story, I became more fascinated than ever by his extraordinary combination of qualities, both good and bad.
