1. A New Germany | 1933–1939
Stricken by humiliating defeat and emerging from deep economic depression, Germany responds to the hopes and promises of regained pride and prosperity seemingly offered by Adolf Hitler.

This series is for anyone trying to make sense of a 6 year period when the world went mad. Narrated by Sir Laurence Olivier and covering all aspects of the WW2, this definitive series is used by many colleges and universities as a source for War history. There is an incredible depth of archive footage; skilfully woven with interviews of major figures in the War from Britain, USSR / Russia, US, Canada, Europe and Japan. For all its skilful editing and historical sophistication, every episode is clearly presented and emotionally compelling.

What makes this a stellar and overpowering account of the War is Sir Laurence Olivier's narration. Never blustery, patriotic, or theatrical, Sir Laurence delivers thoughtful analysis with his incredible command of English and oration. An unforgettable tone in a haunting image of a child in a photograph, dissolving in flames.
