Dramatisations filmed in the Cabinet War Rooms, the real locations where Churchill led the nation.
CHURCHILL & THE CABINET WAR ROOMS
The programme combines superb archive film from the Imperial War Museum’s vast collection.
Includes first-hand accounts which reveal the challenges of working with Britain’s bullish war leader at close quarters. The programme then traces the key stages of the war from Churchill’s viewpoint – his relationship with President Roosevelt, the turning point at El Alamein, D-Day and the final journey to victory. At his finest hour he is defeated in the General Election in the summer of 1945. It is a dramatic story of how one man’s leadership rallied the nation and turned almost certain defeat into victory.
