A programme to mark the 50th anniversary of the Munich agreement.
When Chamberlain returned from Munich in September 1938, the British people rejoiced that their elderly prime minister had delivered the nation from war.
Only a year later Britain was at war with Germany. To this day he is regarded as a weak man who gave in to the bullying of a dictator. Is this a fair view?
Robert Harris, the Political Editor of the Observer, looks again at the role of Neville Chamberlain. Contrary to popular belief, he finds a strong, even obstinate man who believed he was right to hope for the best while he prepared for the worst. Those who remember him describe how he helped to lay the foundations for final victory over Nazi Germany.
