Franco: the Last Inquisitor: In the Name of Christ and the Empire

Franco experienced a remarkable rise through the ranks of the Spanish army until the Republican regime, in 1931, brought his career to a halt. The Civil War became his opportunity to seize absolute power in Spain. Part 1 of 2.

Franco: the Last Inquisitor: The Manipulator

Having come to power through a coup, General Franco manoeuvred from 1939 until his death in 1975 to remain in control. While his former allies Hitler and Mussolini disappeared with the end of WW II, his political longevity remains surprising. Part 2 of 2.

Impossible Peace: Peace for Our Time, 1938 - 1939

For some, appeasement was the only way 'repeating the disaster of WW1 had to be avoided at all costs'. But with Adolf Hitler at the other end of the negotiating table, this was a strategy doomed to failure. Part 8 of 8.

The War: Life's Accidents

Autumn 1944. In the late autumn of 1944 American soldiers suffer terrible losses when they are ordered into the forbidding and fiercely defended terrain of the Hürtgen Forest and the Vosges Mountains. In the Central Pacific, to the delight of audiences back home, General MacArthur returns to the island of Leyte. But months of bloody fighting lie ahead before the Philippine Islands, and the people imprisoned on them, can be liberated. A series by Ken Burns. Part 10 of 14.

Afternoon

Grand Tours of the Scottish Isles: A New Island Life
