World War II Collection
WWII FROM SPACE:
Witness the grand scale of the Second World War like never before in WWII FROM
SPACE. This stunning feature-length HISTORY® special utilises an all-seeing CGI
eye that offers a satellite view of the world’s greatest conflict, allowing
viewers to experience the war from a unique angle that presents key events and
tipping points from a global perspective. With interviews and commentary from
leading experts including Pulitzer Prize winning historian David Kennedy, this
documentary sheds new light on one of history’s most engrossing subjects.
D-DAY: LOST FILMS:
In the spirit of WWII: LOST FILMS and VIETNAM: LOST FILMS, this 2-part special
event presents this iconic battle using newly discovered colour footage, much of
which has never been seen. For the first time, viewers can see the largest
amphibious assault in history entirely in newly transferred colour HD —
5,000 Allied ships landing over 160,000 soldiers across a 50-mile stretch of
Normandy beaches. D-Day remains one of the most important turning points of
WWII, yet very few of us know the real story… until now.
