The third in the series of four films, presented by historian Martin Gilbert, of the first complete television biography of Britain's wartime leader Winston Churchill.
This week's episode opens with Churchill's triumphant visit, early in 1943 to the 8th Army in north Africa. He told the troops: "After the war, when a man is asked what he did, it will be quite sufficient to say, 'I marched and fought with the desert army.'" The war years were to see the great orator making some of his finest speeches. His secretary, Phyllis Forbes, describes how he composed and rehearsed them: "It was like a director of a great orchestra. He would march up and down using a cigar as a baton."
This film also provides a new insight into Churchill's involvement in the key events of the war between 1943 and 1945, including the claim that he wanted to abandon the D-Day plans and instead invade France across the Pyrenees. It reveals the existence of Churchill's "naughty document" - a plan on a scrap of paper proposing the post-war division of Europe with the Russians. But by Yalta in February 1945 he knew that Britain was becoming increasingly powerless.

Weld Ivan Travalian is a playwright under pressure. His latest play is about to open, it's not ready, the director is incompetent and there's no lead actress. Add to that the fact that his wife has left him for a guy called Larry Lotzwinkle , and there are five kids to support, and it's easy to see why Ivan's not a happy man.
Director Arthur Hiller
