A film series based on Sir Winston Churchill's Memoirs of World War II.

The first meeting of the 'Big Three'-Churchill, Roosevelt, and Stalin takes place in Teheran in November 1943, and a date is set for the opening of a Second Front in Europe-summer 1944. To relieve the Russians and draw away German troops Churchill redoubles attacks in Italy. The Allied advance is halted at Monte Cassino, and in spite of the landings at Anzio, behind the German lines, it becomes necessary to destroy the centuries-old monastery. It is attacked by air and reduced to rubble. (Repeat)

"None of us look like murderers. Nobody ever looks like a murderer. You have to look inside the man not outside to see what he is. And what you're looking at now is not a murderer. I was one eight years ago."

Alan Little talks to murderers and their families, to relations and friends of the victim, and to the other people caught up in murder - the police, the jurymen, and the public.
