Some good footage within, but had to bail on this series early because the narration is probably the worst I've ever heard. Even though it can be a harrowing watch, especially for those with relatives still in living memory who were caught up in the conflict, the narration simply takes you out of the world. Yes - although this world is a tough one, you still want to be immersed in it.
But the narraration takes you out of it, it simply doesn't fit. The material I saw was OK - more of a beginners guide, but still with some footage that surprises. And if it's a subject that fascinates you, you can put up with repitition. Hopefully someone makes a proper WW2 documentary, with a stronger script and narration that fits the images.
