    Colour makes history increasingly vivid!
    Whilst there are no startling revelations within this series, as the WW2 conflict has been covered by countless other documentaries, the colouring of the footage does bring the subject matter home in a far more relatable manner.

    In fact some of the colouring is so good, you feel like you're watching something that could have been filmed in the last decade.

    A must see for any modern history enthusiasts!
