IT'S now just one week until Amazon's excellent TV adaptation of Philip K Dick's The Man in The High Castle returns for its second series.

Set in an alternative 1962 where Germany and her allies have won the Second World War, the debut season of the show focused on the search by Reich forces and underground resistance fighters for an enigmatic figure – the so-called 'man in the high castle' – who apparently collects unexplained newsreel footage depicting a Nazi defeat and its aftermath.

Now, it seems we're about to finally meet him in the form of Selma and Office Space actor Stephen Root: a new teaser trailer released by Amazon features a scene in which the titular character explains the nature of the films to resistance fighter Juliana (Alexa Davalos).

How will the sci-fi show square his words together with the 'alternate reality' apparently visited in person by Nobusuke Tagomi (Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa) at the end of series one, in which America won the war and is now facing the Cuban Missile Crisis?

Find out next Friday, when all 10 new episodes will become available to watch for Amazon Prime members.
