Playhouse: The Journal of Bridget Hitler

BBC Two
on BBC Two England

by Beryl Bainbridge and Philip Saville
Starring Siobhan McKenna as Bridget Hitler
with Maurice Roeves as Adolf Hitler

Adolf Hitler had an Irish sister-in-law. That much is fact. But two interviewers challenge claims made by Bridget in her journal. An unusually intimate picture of Hitler's family life emerges - but is it true?
Television's newest technical devices help to create an exciting study in truth, illusion, fact and fantasy.
