Description: D-Day To Berlin, by Laurence Rees (BBC)
The collective military operations from D-Day to the final assault on Germany represent one of the greatest military offensives ever. D-Day to Berlin follows the Allies' remarkable progress from the beaches of Normandy to their ultimate victory just eleven months later. The celebration of Europe's liberation from the Nazis was tempered only by the chill of Stalin's new domination, truly making this the campaign that shaped the future of Europe. Using a testimony-driven format, this three-part series uses accounts of British, American and German soldiers, as well as archive footage, to bring the savage battlefields to life once more.
3 Episodes - 15 Parts:
Episode 1 - THE STRUGGLE TO BREAK OUT:
After Allies forces established the first beachhead in Normandy on D-Day, many spoke of being in Berlin by Christmas. However, the next year would see murderous struggle in the hedgerows of the bocage, exhilaration at the liberation of Paris, tragedy in the ill-fated Operation Market Garden and panic as the Wehrmacht stunned the Allies with full-blooded offensive in the Battle of the Bulge.
Episode 2 - ALLIES AT WAR:
At a terrible cost, the Allies' path finally cleared, but as Allies armies poured into Germany they began to stumble across the Nazis' darkest secret - the concentration camp. It took Hilter's suicide to fully bring home to the Allies their momentous achievement - the war in Europe was over.
Episode 3 - THE DREAM THAT DIED:
Powerful testimonies of British, American and German soldiers, and the use of archive and dramatic action, brings those savage battlefields to life. This series tells the full story of one of the greatest military offensives ever fought.
