I Have been watching BBC2 programme ww2 behind closed doors which is a series of programmes in relation to events during and after the war apart from real footage it gives an insight into meetings of political figures etc by recreating these events well worth watching:)
 
otherhalf seen most of them and they are very good I will see it later on BBCi Player:)
 
Alf what amazes me is how some history or at least parts of it are being re examined in the light of new information being available:)
 
Yes - it's an excellent series, which only strengthens my feeling that history is an exciting combination of good strategy and tactics, a lot of hard work, and also just luck.
After the event we can judge people's actions or achievements, for what that is worth, only according to how many of the relevant facts we know.
In practice we can never know all the facts, and television programmes which claim to tell us everything are unlikely to to so, but they can fill a gap, and are to be welcomed.

I would like to have seen that BBC series - maybe it will come to Canada

I do think some historical events that happened during wartime were based on fear.

In wartime and Peace History is in local the cemeteries
