The Second World War was the most turbulent and eventful period in the history of the 20th century. It affected the lives of millions of people.

When war broke out in 1939, churchill joined the War cabinet as First Lord of the Admiratl. In May 1940, Neville Chamberlain resigned as Prime Minster and Churchill took his place. His refusal to surrender to Nazi Germany inspired the country. He worked tirelessly throughout the war, building strong relations with US President Roosevelt whilst maintaining a sometimes difficult alliance with the Soviet Union.

Churchill's 'Bulldog' spirt seemed to echo the mood of the British people, despite the formidable opponents they were up against. Featuring archive footage, much of it previously unseen, Churchill's War brings together the story of our greatest leader and accounts of our inspirational victories.

'I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears and sweat.' Winston Churchill
