The War Years

On the first day of World War II, the Admiralty sent a message to all of the British Navy. It simple read "Winston is back." British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain had made Churchill First Lord Of The Admiralty, a position that Churchill had held at the beginning of World War I. This programme delves into Churchill's war record during World War II and asks the question: "How did a man responsible for some of history's greatest military disasters become a hero of the British people and the only man who could lead them through the war?"
