If you know the right places... and if you're the sort of man who needs a gun... it is possible to acquire one. They cost money, but when the offer is a fiver down and a percentage of your first 'job'... you might be tempted.

A documentary in three parts from the book by William Shirer

The veteran American newspaper correspondent William Shirer was the first man to try to compile a complete record of Adolf Hitler's 'thousand-year' Reich, to tell the whole horrifying story from the street-brawling origins through the early victories to the fiery end in a Berlin cellar. So far his monumental work has not been superseded.
The three-part television documentary which derives from Shirer's book follows the text closely, but enhances the words with rare film and with interviews which took years to assemble. Sober and factual, it makes no attempt to dramatise or drive home the moral; the facts as illustrated speak only too clearly and grimly for themselves.
Tonight's first part deals with Hitler's childhood, early manhood, and First War career, with the Weimar Republic and with the origins and establishment of the Nazi party.

Dramatised by Rosemary Anne Sisson
with Nicholas Selby as Sir Robert Waring, Kenneth Farrington as Ben Nash, Domini Blythe as Candida, Janina Faye as Tamara
Nicholas Selby is a member of the Royal Shakespeare Company

Sir Robert Waring, an extrovert actor-manager, has two daughters, Candida and Tamara, who have both followed him into the profession. Candida, an unwilling actress thinking she has no great talent, is bullied by her father into playing Anya in The Cherry Orchard. At about this time she meets a young reporter, Ben Nash, and they fall in love. Sir Robert, discovering this fact and fearful of the effect on his daughter's career, persuades Ben to stop seeing Candida. At this point, to add to Sir Robert's worries, Jack Swift, an unscrupulous blackmailer, arrives on the scene...
