About this deal
This deal is expired. Here are some options that might interest you:
The current licence holders for The world at War have uploaded the entire series on their YouTube channel (available in 1080p).
A stunning series and possibly the best documentary series ever produced. First hand interviews, footage and sound effects. This would be ideal for teachers etc covering WW2 or in the run up to remembrance day (just to remind little Billy how lucky he is).
This is currently being aired on Yesterday (freeview channel 19), but you are able to watch these at your own leisure without adverts.
BONUS You don't need to pay for a TV licence to watch this as it is online. Why pay the BBC to watch a TV series made by ITV 45 years ago! ;-)

sorted byExactly my little flower pot. To watch this as it is being broadcast on Yesterday (freeview channel 19) you would have to have a TV licence you'll find.
And yes as I say it was made for ITV so you wont need a TV licence to watch it on YouTube as I clearly say.
You have confused yourself it seems to appear.
Yes. I live under a bridge and don't allow people without TV licences to pass.
Or
My comment could have been directed at the OP and not you.
Pick one. We'll run with it.
Not on the same scale on body count level but plenty of lasting damage can still be done with words.
I have sent the link to all European leaders in the hope that WW III can be averted...
I befriended him on Facebook.
It is not necessary to have a TV licence to watch this series on YouTube. What point exactly are you trying to make? Apart from anything else, this series was made by Thames Television which was an ITV company. Are you a TV Licensing troll?
Heat for the Thames TV intro at the beginning.:D
It wasn't the sushi that kills,it's the wasabi.:D

Any particular reasoning as to why I'm "clueless" for stating proven facts? Or are you one of those BBC executives who covered up Savile's antics? Or in bed with the Bush asswiping Blair (or as he should be called, B-liar)?
It doesn't matter who made the video :L As long as you're watching it legally not broadcast live from TV then even it it was created by the BBC you wouldn't need a license. And while you probably already knew that, I don't think stuarthanley was trying to say what you said was factually wrong. But moreso needless to say and guaranteed to spur up disputes. It's a youtube video, TV license is irrelevant.
I just think its the way you worded "you dont need a tv licence to watch this as its online" i suppose in one way correct just as long as your not watching as is broadcast and not a pre-recorded show.
Er....which leaders, in particular? Most are part of NATO which is controlled by the US. The rest are not capable of starting a bonfire, nevermind WW3.

Don't think Russia is in NATO and they've a few toys to throw around ..
You sent Putin a link to this video:? How did you get his email? Or are you on Snapchat with him? I'm doubting your story.
(edited)
Putin is not that bad, at least he kills his rivals with sushi which nobody likes. Imagine if it had been with beef Monster Munch or Curly Wurly.
Why so many ????? surely just one ? would do no?

Clueless.
you could use a youtube downloader and download the videos, and save back to a cloud or dvd for posterity. Just in case they ever decided to pull them off youtube but i doubt it.
I guess I just think people must be really blind and/or stupid to not see how much benefit we garner as a nation by having institutions such as the BBC.
Jeremy Clarkson sealed his own fate. Don't bemoan the BBC for ditching him. As for Saville - he is far from the only person in public life to commit atrocities. The BBC should have done more; but let's not be so silly as to wish for the failure of the BBC because of past failings.
The BBC is the envy of the world. It has given us Dr Who, Fawlty Towers, Only Fools & Horses, Question Time, Panorama, Newsnight, University Challenge, Strictly, Blue Planet, Human Planet, Big Cat Diary, Cuckoo, Peaky Blinders, War & Peace, Pride & Prejudice, Top GearThe Sky at Night, Horizon and a huge myriad of socially enriching and often commercially successful programming.
Yes, the Saville thing was a disgrace...and the BBC should have done more. But be careful what you wish for. The BBC does things that no other commercial broadcaster can deliver. It adds huge benefit to our economy by giving outlets to creative industries that would otherwise have no opportunity to achieve what they do.
There is a reason why the UK music industry is where it is right now. That reason is the BBC...offering things like 6 Music, Radio 1 Presents, Radio 3 & Radio 4 --- all of which contribute hugely to the rich tapestry of this country.
You may wish for a commercially driven country such as the United States -- but I personally find the BBC's output to be well worth the licence fee. & much like the NHS, I fecking hate the Tories for trying to rip them apart.
The BBC is a great institution. To not realise that makes you seem clueless to me.
Ballast free?! I've watched 20 minutes so far, and have so far found the following;
- unnecessary background music (like the US Battleplan tv series)
- cheap CGI
- weird powerpoint style overlays
- unnecessary costume drama elements.
It doesn't do any kind of justice to the situation it is covering. Lawrence Olivier & the World at War has an amazing gravitas that really brings home the pity of war.
World at War definitely gets my vote.
I mean pro-russian ballast(or pro murican in murican documents), for example in 16 part is clearly mentioned how russians treated civilians in Germany, or in part about Kursk (so underestimated in west history of WW2) finished the biggest tank's battle without winner as was clearly proved just because open archives.
What did you point on is now a standard in similar documents in good way or bad. It's hard to create 45 min without showing same black and white shots like 1000x before . And ever harder to keep attention of new generation to study history. World in War is great document. One of my favorite one, but in that time were a lot of information locked in governments archives. Recently I saw documents about japs in china and some shots even I can't watch and that's after I saw uncensored shots from concentration camps.
Even after 70 years are a lot unclear. Was battle of Britain real attempt to invade or to cover preparations for Barbarossa? Why rails to Auschwitz concentration camp was not bombed, if was well know what's going on there from 1942? Will WW2 start without Munich Agreement ?

Ditto...! It states 'no longer available due to a copyright claim by FremantleMedia' I wonder why just 1 episode?
