The World at War: 25: Reckoning

on BBC Two England

Penultimate episode in the acclaimed 26-part documentary series telling the story of the Second World War.

The war ends slowly and messily. Britain is victorious but exhausted and nearly bankrupt. In San Francisco in April 1945 the United Nations is born. Amid mutual distrust the superpowers confront each other to decide the fate of Europe. Of the Nazis, some take their own lives, while others face charges of crimes against humanity at the Nuremberg Trials.
