A series in seven parts presented by David Dimbleby.

Roosevelt's pledge to Churchill committed America to a close and generous alliance with Britain. But the two countries had very different ideas of how the world should be when the war was over. Tonight David Dimbleby charts the changing relationship, not only at the top but among the ordinary men and women who lived and fought together until Hitler had been defeated.
