Churchill: To Conquer or to Die

on BBC Two England

Another chance to see the television biography of Britain's wartime leader.

In May 1940, when he became Prime Minister, Churchill told the British people that he could offer them only "blood, toil, tears and sweat". The second of these four films describes how and why Churchill became the symbol of Britain's struggle for survival through the crises of Dunkirk, the Battle of Britain and the Blitz, until the first great victory at Alamein turned the tide.
Presented by Martin Gilbert.
