My name is Dan Jones.
Except that's not my real name.
You can't know my real name, because some of the people I am going to tell you about could be dangerous.
I will walk you through how I managed to infiltrate and became a trusted member of a far right group called 'Patriotic Alternative'.
Month after month I wear a "mask", use an alias, to find out what's really going on.
I spend a weekend at PA's summer camp, and even manage to get into their secretive annual conference.
What I discover is that it's not all swastikas and football hooligans.
Some of PA's members were civil servants, an NHS worker, and even a teacher.
In this year-long investigation, I reveal what it's like to be undercover, my double life and the constant fear of being outed.
All to uncover what some PA member's true beliefs are.

Warning: There are parts of this episode that some might find offensive and upsetting - including people using very strong language, and the strongest racist language.
Dan Jones finds himself in the beautiful countryside, but his campmates are the far right. He's wearing a mask - using a false name - but so is the group he's here with. On a hike he hears what some of its members really think. But on returning to camp, he discovers the group is about to be found out - which could mean that Dan is outed too.
