Another chance to see the acclaimed 26-part documentary series telling the story of the Second World War.

Western scientists have developed a new, immensely powerful weapon - the atomic bomb. But should it be used? The moral implications are enormous. President Truman makes his decision on the grounds that it will shorten the war and save thousands of Allied lives, and on 6 August, 1945, a US bomber drops its deadly cargo on the Japanese city of Hiroshima. Four days later a second atomic bomb is dropped on Nagasaki.
