    The series offer a remarkable window on one of the most turbulent decades in history and capture a world determined to remain stable in the face of economic and political chaos across Europe. Social historians and people with direct connections to the footage explore what everyday life was really like for people in the 30s - the tough working conditions and uncertainty, but also new opportunities for leisure and increased social freedoms despite looming war.

    excellent footage, ruined by ignorant, grandstanding commentators. Unless you actually lived during the great depression, the 30s, and the cruelty and suffering endured by the working class, and poor. You wouldn't come close to understanding, the attraction of fascism and what it promised. Corruption created those times, and its about to create them, once again, unfortunately

My Grandad had already been in the Australian army since 1936, as were his brothers and Grans brothers, and when war broke out, they all went on to serve in the Australian army. My Grandad did survive the war. Gran told me he came back a shattered man. Grandad never spoke of what he went through and what he'd seen, I was told by Gran to never ask him, as he get upset.

    My dad was born on the first of May 1935 in Farnborough, Kent. He spent most of WW2 on a lovely farm in Devon. In the 1970s we were visiting his brother who lived then in the West country and travelled through to the area he was evacuated to. He told us the farm I was living at is here, and we drove up to have a look. He decided to ask after the farmer and his wife. The door opened and the old farmer and his wife were there, they immediately recognised him and said "Hallo Alan" we had tea and cakes with them, and they gave a lot of Scrumpy the farmer made. My dad was one of the lucky ones, another person I met had a terrible time when they were evacuated. My dad got a lot out of those years. The saddest thing was, when he returned to Kent, his own father died within one year from a heart attack. I think I always felt that sadness in my dad.

My father & mother are still alive & very well. My dad just turned 90 this month. My mother told me the story that her sister & she were also sent out to a farm in rural Germany were the family took them in & looked after them as their own children, and the story goes about something like this. About 20 odd years ago my father ( it was the first time my father returned after emigrating to South Africa in 1957 ) & mother went back & decided to go visit the farm again & low & behold as they were walking down the farm road nearing the farm house they could see this old lady leaning out of the farm door & as my mother was walking this old lady after 50 + years recognized my mother instantaneously & called out her name Marianne. Needless to say it was a very emotional moment for my mother & her. its amazing that this lady recognized my mother some 50 years later when my mom was only only about 5.

      One of our greatest tragedies, and so few even realize it. So many have been programmed to hold a stubborn pride in our manipulated destruction, as if some great deed was accomplished.

That's the "woke" nonsense everybody's talking about here in the comments section. Of course, Churchill and Roosevelt had been scheming even as early as 1935 to get into a war with Germany. Britain's ridiculous goading of Poland for the war started things. Pearl Harbor provided a facility for the US to jump in with both feet after essentially playing a devious role of supporting Britain in the Atlantic between 1939 and 1941. An entirely immoral war but not for the reasons woke people think.

    Instead of targeting USSR or poland, germany could've easily taken turkey, syria & iraq, getting access to the indian ocean and taking control of the middle eastern oil reserves, instead they were delusioned with the idea of gracial purity & building of lebensraum (living space)
    When japan clashed with USA, germany could've stayed silent.
    Germany should've had full control over mussolini's actions, but they never did.
    This is what you get for having a faulty perception of the world.
    Even if they were bothered about living space or aryan grace, they should be looking at turkey [ottoman descendants] as the enemy, for what they did to the europeans or christians for centuries.
    Instead nahtzees found a mythical logic to eliminate p0Ies & sIavs, who had played an important role that safeguarded europe from ottomans and barbaric steppe hordes.

      Do you honestly not know about the 'Year of Three Kings'?
      It's not an isolated event in terms, it has happened before in British/English (and indeed foreign monarchies) history, but where England is concerned, there is precedent. During the reigns of Edward IV, Edward V and Richard III, the term was used, certainly a slightly modified version: circa 1480s. Germany has had the year of {The Three Emperors}
      There was the year of Three Popes in 1978 with Paul VI, John Paul I John and Paul II. All involving a death somewhere of course. We have seen this trend throughout history, in many different forms and instances that are rewarded the aptly named "Year of Three". As is the case in the UK with Prime Ministers too, in most recent memory, in 2022. I'm sure you can guess which.
